A fact from Provence wine appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 February 2008, and was viewed approximately 1,425 times ( disclaimer) ( check views). The text of the entry was as follows: Did you know... that vineyard owners in the Provence wine region of Cassis used to hire prostitutes from Marseilles to assist with picking grapes at harvest time? A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2008/February.

This article seems more on the B-side than not, but I do have concerns about the lack of a winemaking & viticulture section. Some of the pertinent details are covered in relevant in wine region section but extra opinions on the assessment is welcomed. Agne ^Cheese/ ^Wine 00:16, 18 February 2008 (UTC) reply

I've spent several hours cleaning this up. The major problems come from widespread copying and pasting from source material and poor attempts to rephrase to avoid copyvio. The prose was therefore in the typical essay style of the journallists in the wines reviews it was taken from. A lot of it is still inappropriate for an ecyclopedia and contains journalists' POV. The fact that these sources are referenced, does not mean that the journalists' own POV should be interpreted as fact.-- Kudpung ( talk) 01:16, 23 October 2010 (UTC) reply

Of course there have been numerous edits made by several dozen editors since, but I will note that when I first wrote the large majority of text back in Feb 2008, not a single item was copied or pasted nor were any of the sources wine reviews. Agne ^Cheese/ ^Wine 07:58, 31 January 2011 (UTC) reply
