I became preoccupied with something unexpected this past week. I will have the review by next Sunday, at most. Thank you for your patience. — The Most ComfortableChair 11:18, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The "Reception" section is not represented in the lead at the moment, and the lead could use a couple of sentences summarizing the AVN bit and general reception.
Added a few brief sentences. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"An NowThis News video drew attention to the site." — Brief description of the content of the video would be useful.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen it. The company operated at the time solely through social media posts, I believe, so it would be hard to find the original video and not that great a source. The secondary source mentions the video but not its content, beyond that it was about Bellesa (which I've made more explicit). It may have just been a 15-second clip saying not much more than "This women's porn website exists". — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Schnaidman said in September 2018 that the pirated content was uploaded to tube sites and embedded on Bellesa by users, that Bellesa "lost control of being able to monitor" uploads when the site's userbase grew, and that the host websites should have taken down the videos but "bigger tube sites don't care whatsoever" about piracy." — I would suggest splitting this into two or three sentences.
Two sentences, one split into two clauses by a semicolon. Let me know if it's still too complex to read easily. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Suzannah Weiss's positive profile of Shnaidman for Bustle profile" — Is slightly awkward sounding. Perhaps "Shnaidman's positive profile in Bustle by Suzannah Weiss" or "Suzannah Weiss's positive Bustle profile of Shnaidman" would work better?
Done: the word "profile" definitely shouldn't have been in their twice. I've gone with the latter and made some other changes to hopefully make the sentence more readable. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Should "Bellesa House" and "Bellesa Blind Date" be unbolded, since "The Collective", "Bellesa Plus", "Bellesa Productions", "Bellesa Boutique" are not in bold in the prose?
"Their first original product, the AirVibe, was released in November 2020" and "The AirVibe is a vibrator that uses suction and G-spot stimulation" would read better if merged.
Moved to be consecutive sentences. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"launched the Demi Wand sex toy with American singer, songwriter and actor Demi Lovato" — perhaps "American singer, songwriter and actor" could be removed or shortened?
Now "musician and actor"—so the article is standalone, I feel it's important to say something of who Lovato is. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Should "Mashable" be without italics, as it is in the article's Wikipedia entry?
This is always a weird one as I'm not sure why sometimes we have these names unitalicised in article first sentences. Sometimes it just feels right to me for it to be unitalicised and I can't place why. In this case, I've deferred to the main article and removed italics. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"However, she praised its discreet packaging and price. However," — Use of "however" could be avoided in one of them.
Changed the second one to "In contrast". — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@The Most Comfortable Chair: I've replied to each of these, I think. Let me know if further work is needed on any points. — Bilorv (talk) 23:09, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The article flows well, is referenced appropriately, covers all major aspects and is fair in its representation — it meets the criteria. Thanks to Bilorv for their diligent work. — The Most ComfortableChair 15:34, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am an executive at the company, much of this article is inaccurate[edit]
I am a c-suite executive at Bellesa Enterprises Inc based out of Montreal. Much of the information about Bellesa, even the most basic information is incorrect. How can we go about rectifying this? CanadianJuneBug (talk) 21:35, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@CanadianJuneBug: thanks for clarifying your position. You need to read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. A good place to start is creating a userpage that declares your executive position. Wikipedia is based on published sources rather than personal experience, so that readers can tell the information is not fabricated, and it needs to primarily be based on sources independent of the subject, for neutrality.You should not edit the article directly, as your financial association with the company makes it inappropriate for you, for instance, to add prominent links to the company's social media or remove negative/lukewarm reviews of its products.You can point out factual inaccuracies on this talk page, referring to published sources so an independent volunteer can check what you are saying is correct and change the article accordingly. — Bilorv (talk) 22:59, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
