Talk:Viking Range

Untitled

They aren't professional kitchen appliances if they're for home use, are they? That and expressions like "originated the "professional" segment" and "premium appliances" don't seem neutral to me. Section two mentions that there were "some major flaws in the design of commercial appliances with respect to their installation in a residential kitchen", that "these flaws [...] made them impractical and undesirable for use in the home" and finally that the founder of Viking Range somehow fixed it all. What were these flaws? And if their appliances were undesirable for use in the home, what were people cooking on? The section reads like a tribute to Viking Range, and seems to say that Viking Range saved the world from the worthless appliances that are non-viking.

I feel an NPOV-challenge might be in order, but I don't care enough to do it. 85.194.50.194 04:50, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Spike in page views noted in Aug-Oct 2017

In looking at the pageview analysis, there is a 3-fold spike in pageviews during August and September 2017, which tapers to 2-fold in October 2017. Unclear what the cause it, but it's there. See https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&start=2015-07&end=2018-08&pages=Viking_Range for the graphical view showing the spike. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 03:13, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
