Updating this page[edit]

Hi. My name is Christin Di Scipio and I work at Turo. The current page is outdated. It doesn't include Turo's international expansion, latest funding rounds, etc. Additionally, many of our competitor pages have a section on safety the Turo page appears to be missing. I've put together some proposed changes here with strikeouts and bolding to indicate trims and new content respectively, that I would like to suggest as a way of bringing the page up-to-date. As I have a conflict of interest, I am prodding for feedback on the suggested changes from disinterested editors.

It looks good to me, except don't replace "renter" with "traveler", per WP:EUPHEMISM and Wikipedia:Use plain English, and leave out the "Safety" section. The preceding paragraph mentions $1 million insurance; that's sufficient detail. Mention that Liberty Mutual is an investor in the company, in addition to being the insurance vendor. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:09, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Dennis. I just revised the draft so feel free to take a look. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Christin at Turo (talkcontribs) 22:36, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Turo (car rental)Turo (car sharing) – <Turo is not a car rental company, it is a car sharing company. Other car sharing companies including Getaround and Drivey are classified as car sharing on Wikipedia and it is important for Turo to be classified in the correct category as well> Christin at Turo (talk) 22:38, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Neutral seems pretty uncontroversial. However, I see that Turo's website refers specifically to "car rental."[1]
  • Oppose. The evidence just presented by Mathmitch7 is pretty conclusive -- even Turo sees itself as a rental company. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:09, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

July 2018 cleanup[edit]

I edited this article significantly. It needed a cleanup. It read like a corporate brochure touting the company, as indeed it had to because much of it was written by Christin at Turo, who works for Turo. This is an encyclopedia, not an advertising venue.

  • I just looked over all of your edits and they all seemed fine. Thank you! - - mathmitch7 (talk/contribs) 00:24, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed 2020 changes[edit]

I am the Senior Policy Communications Associate at Turo. I would like to share some proposed updates to correct out-dated or erroneous information in the page, so that independent, impartial editors have an opportunity to review and provide any feedback. Please take a look and let me know what you think. I would also like to ping @Dennis Bratland: who reviewed some of our proposed changes in the past Jroeyturo (talk) 20:18, 8 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
