Unfortunately User:Valaistourisme has decided to ignore the advice at User talk:Valaistourisme, and for the third time deleted large parts of the article without explanation, overwriting it with unsourced, advertising-like material. Once again: Wikipedia is not a free advertising space, but a project to write an encyclopedia, where a sober, factual writing style is highly valued and opinionated texts (a striking panorama of magnificent peaks) are not appropriate - see our neutral point of view policy.
Because the purpose of an encyclopedia article is to inform neutrally, statements addressing the reader as a potential customer, buyer or paying visitor are inappropriate:

Hello Haeb,
Ok, let me explain you the situation once again. Valais Tourism is the umbrella association of tourism in Valais. We are not trying to introduce advertising in Wikipedia, we just want to provide general informations about the region. The main page has been created by the Valais government administration, we can't change it, we only contribute to the "tourism" part because we are specialists of the domain. So, if there is any other problem, let me know and I will change it. What did I delete ? If I delete something in the "tourism" part of the article, it's because this information is wrong of useless.
I'm wainting for your answer.
Thanks.
R.
Hello HaeB,

I agree with user FreyasCrystalizedAngels that there should be at least one photo depicting the vineyards of Valais, IMHO it is much more representative than an oil refinery.

Starting in 1384 the Morge stream (a little below Sion) was recognized as the boundary between Savoyard, French speaking Lower Valais...
I doubt that in 1384 Savoyards were French speaking people. French became the official language of Savoy under French occupation in the XVI century. French became the official language of Geneva after the reformation. The Francoprovencal language was abandoned in the XIX and XX centuries. That would be like saying that the native American spoke English or that the Incas spoke Spanish. -- Percht ( talk) 11:52, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello,
I encountered a lot of difficulties editing the page called "Valais" in Wikipedia. I've done it in french, no problem, in italian, no problem, but the english version is "impossible" to edit. I already know that every Wikipedia's language section has his own rules in terms of editing, so I think that's the reason why. So my request is simple, I just want to know what I must do to be allowed to edit this section ? Is it a sources problem, a username problem, a copyright problem...etc. ? I don't know and I don't want to edit 10x the same content for nothing, so please help me. I'll look forward for your answer. Thanks million.

I'm guessing these two bits of Wallis canton ALSO have their own headtowns/capitals? Could they be listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:411:1600:226:8FF:FEDC:FD74 ( talk) 23:06, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the input. Another frain, what are the 'official' sundry names for the indwellers of Wallis itself overall, Upper Wallis, Lower Wallis, and Middle Wallis?
Are Walser and Walliser the all-embracing names for folk from Wallis/Valais?
Bytheway,
1. wasn't the town of Sitten/Sion and abodes historicaly mostly German-speaking until lately?
2. does the word: Walser have any links with that of the Waldenses whom started off in the Italian Alps before reaching Lyons then in the nation of Burgundy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:411:1600:226:8FF:FEDC:FD74 ( talk) 00:21, 16 September 2016 (UTC)
or did a Wallis local government sit somewhere else sometime long ago? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:411:1600:226:8FF:FEDC:FD74 ( talk) 20:58, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
As far as I'm aware, the canton is normally referred to in English simply as "Valais", without a definite article, and this is done several times here. But "the Valais" - which as far as I can see is an over-literal translation from French "le Valais" and German "das Wallis" - is also used several times. Whatever the correct form is, it should surely be consistent within the article. 89.212.50.177 ( talk) 11:29, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

I took the figure from the linked municipalities page - can the reference for the 2009 figure be updated to match. Jackiespeel ( talk) 10:23, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
Initially reading this article out of curiosity regarding Swiss cantons, I've encountered a great deal of problems with this article including redundant information, expression of opinions, facts without references, advertising, and even potential conflict of interest. I've already put up maintenance templates on the page. I believe that a complete rewrite of the article is necessary. Ztimes3 ( talk) 06:42, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
