Bravelets

  • ... that Bravelets donates $10 dollars of each purchase to the charity of the customer's choice?

Created by The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk). Self-nominated at 04:33, 7 January 2016 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Article is barely new enough and long enough. The company blog is an iffy source but since it's being used to state where the things are produced (a fairly uncontentious claim), it seems we can work with a primary souce. Ditto for that $2 million claim, with intext attribution. I am not sure where the " through which they can sell Bravelets products to raise money for a non-profit organization or to offset a family member's medical expenses." comes from, though. Sourcing otherwise OK assuming that the other sources are reliable, the lead is dependent on text elsewhere so it's fine too. The tone of the article is OK, I think. Nothing on copyviotools and I didn't notice any close paraphrasing either. Both hooks say essentially the same, both seem short enough (personally, I prefer the shorter one) and are sourced with an inline citation. QPQ is done.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:36, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the review Jo-Jo Eumerus. The medical expenses statement is from the Austin source, which says "They’ve even set up a fundraising options to help charities and pay people’s medical bills.". The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:05, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
Template:Replyto The issue is that it doesn't explicitly say that these fundraising options are part of the custom sites. The two sentences are juxtaposed but that does not guarantee that they refer to the same thing. WP:SYNTH problems, so to say.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:57, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
Jo-Jo Eumerus: Alright. I added this edit, where the Bravelets site states explicitly what the third-party source says. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:32, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
Symbol confirmed.svg OK. Seems like that source is enough for such a claim. Everything else checks out.Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:28, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
