Talk:Rise Against Hunger

Puff piece

Recent changes have left this piece lookign a little unencyclopedic, I'm about to go through the article and remove some of the excessive flattery. This is not because I don't think the organisation does good work but I thought I'd leave a note here. I may miss comments so please use the {{tping}} template to contact me.

Actually, it's better than it was...

Still pretty puffy! I'm going to take out some of the obviously subjective language like "life-changing". Vanillabean43 (talk) 21:06, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Edits to page

Hello, I tried making changes yesterday and noticed all edits were reverted. Changes made were to update/adjust details that are listed more accurately and outdated information such as Rise Against Hunger's mission statement. Can someone point me in the right direction to get changes/made updated. Thank you! AWhitmyer (talk) 16:07, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

AWhitmer, please read Wikipedia:Avoid mission statements. Wikipedia articles about an organization should be based primarily on summarizing what published reliable sources that are entirely independent of the group say about the group. Going forward, you should use the formal Edit request process, which will draw the attention of uninvolved editors. Cullen328 (talk) 18:02, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for these details! Appreciate it. AWhitmyer (talk) 19:00, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Update first two sentences in the first paragraph

• What I think should be changed: Update the first two sentences in the first paragraph to the following:

Rise Against Hunger is an international humanitarian nonprofit that coordinates the packaging and distribution of food and other aid to people in developing nations. Driven by the vision of a world without hunger, Rise Against Hunger is growing a global movement to end hunger by empowering communities, nourishing lives and responding to emergencies.

• Why it should be changed: Missing information about other pathways that end global hunger.
