As the article is semi-protected...

Very obvious tense mismatch spotted, in casual reading: "In the UK, most forms of outdoor advertising such as the display of billboards is regulated by the UK Town and County Planning system." => "... most forms ... are regulated by ..." (Also would ideally put "such as ... billboards" in parens or make it a commaed subclause, for flow purposes.) - But leaving it up to anyone else who wants to pass by, who has the wherewithall to do it. 89.243.19.27 (talk) 20:24, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

criticism of advertising

I'd ask for the inclusion of the link 'criticism of advertising' on the 'see also' section but it is blocked for edition. I hope the block of the article isn't lobbied by the ad-mafia It is necessary for the article completeness and non-biasedness etc. I'm not logged in, so please just include it. I cannot receive answers and I shouldn't really care. It is your responsibility. Thanks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_advertising 94.60.183.139 (talk) 22:48, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

References

Reference already included.

 Not done, no reference was included - or if the user was referring to one of the three existing references in that part of the article, it's unclear which. --Belbury (talk) 15:43, 22 April 2026 (UTC)
