Talk:Ronn Torossian

Discussion

[edit]

@Revpapa Wow, I've never seen a talk page with this many archive pages! I wouldn't have edited the page in the first place if I'd seen that there was so much passion around it. But since I have stepped in, I'll share my observations.

Controversy section

[edit]

Recommend creating a section on controversy. He stepped down from 5W PR last week due to it coming to light that he secretly purchased a PR-industry news site to highlight his clients' work as well as the company itself. Chances are that a lot of his page was also written by employees. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] 71.127.193.90 (talk) 16:45, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We don't need to add a controversy section. We need to delete the article. There is nothing notable about this guy (what's his name again?) and never really was. Ravpapa (talk) 03:14, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The person who created the page and made most of the initial edits has been banned for COI editing and was a senior person at the subject's company. Highly in favor of deleting the article, or at minimum, pairing it down to what is actually noteworthy – which would make this a much shorter article. 71.127.193.90 (talk) 13:44, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. made the nomination. If you want to participate in the discussion, you should create a username for yourself. Anonymous users - especially in this case where the article has been invaded by sockpuppets - are not particularly welcome in deletion discussions. Ravpapa (talk) 05:33, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And if you do participate, be sure to note any possible conflicts of interest (for example, if you are or were an employee of 5WPR or were the subject of one of his smear campaigns). Ravpapa (talk) 12:45, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Addition to “Personal Life” segment or creation of a “Controversy” segment. On May 5, 2024, Torossian was arrested on the Syracuse University campus’ Shaw Quadrangle. It was alleged that Torossian was “especially aggressive in his verbal treatment of students” at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment. After being asked to deescalate, Syracuse University’s Department of Public Safety wrote that Torossian grabbed and tossed students’ food from a table.[1] [2] Junecm (talk) 13:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. Some users seems to be objecting to the addition of the section (See discussion above this request). ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 12:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
