Talk:GMS (software)

Suggestion for article expansion

Would it be helpful for this article to include a list or section that cites papers/research that have used GMS? It would be helpful to have a section that explains how the software has been used and what kind of projects it gets used for. 42of8 (talk) 17:19, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Aquaveo has recently added a list of publications that refer to GMS. This list only includes articles that were deemed substantial - there are many more articles that refer to GMS. You could probably find more using Google Scholar. As for putting the list on the wiki page, I don't know if that would be a good idea or not, but I do think the article needs more citations.

"customer testimonies"

I don't think customer reviews violate WP:NOTADVERT. As long as they are not on the developer's website, they seem to be "verifiable with independent, third-party sources". The {{advert|section|customer testimonies}} doesn't occur elsewhere on Wikipedia and there is no dedicated template. I only think the WP:NOTCHANGELOG section is primary and promotional. I couldn't Google reviews about the software, but the other article survived AfD.

Users are likely the only sources for reception, and a reception section is generally desired. While independent reviewers are ideal, the reliability of US government sources isn't bad. The COI ArbCom case did not find UPE here.

I thought of removing the WP:PEACOCK words but then the section would be a description not reception section. Merging the history and reception section here could be an option here, but would be difficult for SMS (hydrology software) § Examples of SMS Implementation. How should we improve these articles? 142.113.140.146 (talk) 19:00, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
