A fact from International Sociological Association appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 14 August 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the International Sociological Association was established in 1949 under the auspices of UNESCO?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2012/August. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/International Sociological Association.

This article is written in British English with Oxford spelling (colour, realize, organization, analyse; note that -ize is used instead of -ise) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

Problematic edits by User:Trapper3205

I have finally had the time to review those 2014 edits and I am not impressed. Referenced content has been removed and replaced by unreferenced one. Given that those edits, I repeat, removed referenced sentences (ex. "In 1952 ISA begun publishing an academic journal, Current Sociology.") and add unreferenced content, I am restoring the original version of this page. If User:Trapper3205 or anyone else would like to revert me in turn, please explain things here, per WP:BRD. (PS. I will incorporate other editors changes after the revert) --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:28, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NPOV and WP:PROMO - non-neutral puffery

Bloated subjective fluff such as "a useful organizational platform and a supportive community for sharing relevant information" should not be inserted to promote the organizations in question. I have added a - hopefully acceptable - succinct neutral replacement. Editors with a "conflict of interest" should usually not edit such articles to begin with, and need to disclose their connection with the topic (see WP:COI for more information).
