Redirect to this page goes nowhere edit

The redirect titled "Criticism of Apple Inc." redirects to this page but not any specific section, and I can't find the criticism section. Did it get removed? Mseingth2133444 (talk) 01:01, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Mseingth2133444: Thanks for pointing this out. I had worked a little bit on Criticism of Apple Inc. years ago and it was quite thorough, and I have no idea where all that document history went. Somebody said they renamed it to Apple supply chain, and baselessly so, and botched the process of renaming it and the process of redirecting it, and it has no history. The article Apple supply chain now only talks about criticisms, but only of partner companies, as if Apple in America such as Cupertino headquarters, and the worldwide Apple Stores, and every worldwide corporate office is irrelevant. My goodness the criticism goes back to the 1980s and especially about the cult of personality of Steve Jobs if you wanna get down to it, whether it warrants an article specifically about criticism or not. For example, Apple is a poster child of the global "right to repair" protest movement, including by national governments, but the word "repair" doesn't exist in Apple supply chain. I love things enough to criticize them, all the good and all the bad if it is not WP:UNDUE. Anyway I redirected Criticism of Apple Inc. to Apple supply chain at least for now. @Guy Harris: All I know is that you always know everything about everything, and you're one of the most awesome editors I've ever seen, especially in Wikiproject Apple, and I have probably failed to tell you that and tried harder to collaborate with you on everything, and everybody needs to know that anyway also, so do you happen to know? — Smuckola(talk) 20:22, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
A timeline:
I think the "a split-and-delete of [what used to be Criticism of Apple Inc] into more tightly-scoped articles" sums up what happened. Guy Harris (talk) 21:48, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yeah. I recall this was discussed in, I think, 2 places. One way to put it would be "not unanimous". The crux is whether readers find it more valuable to have all the criticism in one place, or to have articles that dig on one aspect and try to cover each more comprehensively; and what made me learn towards the latter was the breadth & amount of criticisms. But it was irresponsible of me to embark on that without committing the time to building out all those articles. DFlhb (talk) 00:05, 26 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Malformatted comment edit

Their is one Error in the part that says that Apple was founded by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. There was also a third founder a man by the name of Ronald Wane. That should be added — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.105.62.148 (talk) 10:19, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Read it again, I guess. Good luck! — Smuckola(talk) 20:09, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
The first sentence under History reads:

Apple Computer Company was founded on April 1, 1976, by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne as a partnership.

It may be helpful for you to clarify exactly which sentence you are referencing, as I'm not sure what you are referring to. - Skipple 21:57, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
