I have rolled back three edits by User:69.199.156.126 and left a message on their talk page. [1]

My initial concern was this edit which removed the trademark image, and thereby made the image liable for deletion.

However the result reads like an advertisement. Possible COI problems; User:69.199.156.126 has few other edits [2] and all but one test edit [3] relate to this company. Andrewa (talk) 20:52, 12 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Mahalo

edit

I was surprised to see Mahalo listed as one of Saga's Brand Families, as AFAIA there's no connection. I was even more surprised to see the Mahalo logo included in "Saga trademarks.jpg." in the infobox.

Mahalo is not listed in Saga's own current product list: https://www.sagamusic.com/products/

Furthermore, according to Mahalo's own website: "Mahalo, meaning “thank-you” or “gratitude in Hawai’ian, was the word chosen by Kikutani Music, a musical products distributor based in Nagoya, Japan as the brand name for their then, new range of ukuleles in 1999." (Mahalo Ukuleles.com: The Mahalo Story)

I don't where "Saga trademarks.jpg" was sourced from, or whether there was some connection in the past between Mahalo & Saga, but AFAICS, there isn't any now.

In any case, for the time being, I've removed all references to Mahalo on this page. Redpaul1 (talk) 16:55, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
