Hello @LilianaUwU: What is promotional? This has inappropriate tone and and I am uncertain that is a good source but it does not appear promotional. What about this is WP:OR? I have not read it so I can't say. I do see a lot of citations so there are some citations. Do you really mean that is all OR?

@Environmentaljustice101: please stop edit warring. The subject you are attempting to write about is appropriate and some text about it certainly will be welcome on Wikipedia. However you should learn to write WP:NPOV. Please Talk: about this here. Talk: pages are the place for this. Additionally HighPriestDuncan is correct that Wikipedia:CITE#Citation_templates_and_tools would be an improvement but are not required. Invasive Spices (talk) 23 December 2022 (UTC)

Step in the refinement section is missing, and diagram.

[edit]

Step 3 says: "The oil enters the deodorizer, which is responsible for removing free fatty acids (FFA) generated by hydrolysis." But there is no mention of a prior hydrolysis stage in the refining section. I suggest moving the later parts of the Extraction section into the Refinement section (hydrolysis sounds like a refining stage rather than part of extraction). What would also be helpful, given that there are alternative options, and multiple end products, is a diagram starting with the raw product on the left, the various end products on the right, with the processes and intermediate products between. Each end product could be described, including main and minor constituents.

Hope that helps. FreeFlow99 (talk) 11:48, 20 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

[edit]

Certainly this has been debated here before, but does this page feel whitewashed to others? The level of detail about industry or chemical or nutritional information feels like it completely crowds out the social/environmental/cultural aspects of palm oil. It feels a little like carefully disguised propaganda, and I think most readers of a page on palm oil would be just as interested (if not much more) to learn about the many social/environmental/cultural aspects of palm oil as those other parts.
