Want feedback on Draft:Midnight Society

Hello! I kindly ask if someone will give me feedback on the draft I'm giving time in. It's called "Midnight Society", and it was formed by streamer Dr Disrespect alongside Call of Duty and Halo veterans Robert Bowling, Quinn DelHoyo, and Sumit Gupta. The draft was declined multiple times due to lack of reliable sources (in which I improved in), and for notability. I've searched the California Secretary of State website for their name, but no luck. I think some studios don't file as an LLC when they're formed, in which I'm mentioning it as an independent development studio. MikeTimesONE (talk) 12:28, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

Streamline Yahoo History section

Hello, editors! My name is Spencer and I work for Yahoo. I posted an edit request on the Yahoo Talk page to update the History section last week. This is a large edit request, should editors want to consider it in smaller sections, I can break the request up. Just let me know. Is anyone available to review it? Due to my COI, I am not able to update the article myself. Thanks! Spencer at Yahoo (talk) 19:06, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Innovation Endeavors

Hi project members, I would appreciate if someone with a good understanding of notability of companies and reliable sources for company notability would take a look at Draft:Innovation Endeavors, and leave comment on the article talk page regarding the notability of the company and the sources currently referenced. Please ping me from the article talk page. Regards, · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 06:28, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

User script to detect unreliable sources

Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliable

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Requesting help on a rejected article

It looks like I may have over-written and over-sourced https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:PropertyGuru , so my reviewer thinks it sounds like advertising. This is my first-ever full article, and I think I might be in over my head. Requesting experienced editor(s) to help my chop out info that doesn't belong. Thanks! Pathologix (talk) 11:10, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

@Pathologix:, I took a quick look and would agree with the reviewer. It is written as if the company itself had a hand in it. Ask yourself this, do Wikipedia readers care (or does the company care) about "In 2012, the company raised S$55 million in funding?" These type of drafts also stink of conflict of interest editing. I will always assume good faith in this aspect but would request you review WP:COI and WP:PAID and make any disclosure if applicable. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:53, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for taking the time to look at the draft and feedback, @CNMall41. Yes, I am well aware of COI and PAID. (Not sure if I should feel complimented that you think my draft is good enough for people to pay for, or insulted that you think I'm breaking rules...) I basically just copied the format of some other Company articles (mostly from the other famous Singaporean unicorn, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grab_(company) and summarized what I thought was encyclopedic info from trusted sources from extensive Google News searches. If you have more concrete suggestions for improving, I'd grateful. I'm pretty despondent about my experience on this, but might revisit in the future. Pathologix (talk) 06:39, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

@Pathologix That Grab article is pretty bad, and I wouldn't try to use it as a model. It's better to use good articles as models, for instance the articles listed at Wikipedia:Good articles/Social sciences and society § Businesses and organizations. Skimming through your article, I see a lot of "marketing talk" that doesn't really fit what is expected from an encyclopedia: "It was the biggest acquisition in PropertyGuru’s 14-year history", "was recognised as the leading property marketplace in the country", "was the market leader in four out of five of the largest economies in the region", "profitable and cash flow positive", "higher quality listings rank higher, regardless of whether or not agents advertise" etc. That's the real problem here. JBchrch talk 17:35, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Hey, @Pathologix:, thanks for the reply. So which is it ("Not sure if I should feel complimented that you think my draft is good enough for people to pay for, or insulted that you think I'm breaking rules...")? I also see the draft is still full of promo tone so not sure where you are in the overall process. --CNMall41 (talk) 23:44, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

Evernote: Company section updates

Hey there! I'm Greg, an Evernote employee trying to get some help updating and improving the company's article. User:Kvng helpfully suggested I give this WikiProject a shot, so here I am. A colleague of mine, User:Evernotebrian, researched and wrote a new draft for the article's Company section. It features some details on recent developments that aren't covered in the current version of the Evernote article and adds improved sourcing to the existing content in that section. His draft is available for review at this link. Additionally, here's a link to the edit request on the Evernote Talk page, where you can see my COI disclosure and follow-up note right below Brian's post. We were also hoping to get the Company header changed to History, because we feel that's a more accurate description of what the section contains, but I know that's an extra consideration. If an interested editor from this WP could at least take a look at the new section draft, that would be terrific. Thanks for your time. Evernote Greg (talk) 15:24, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

Dover Corporation primary-sourced subsection removal request

Hello editors! To disclose for transparency: I am an employee of Dover Corporation and am making requests for editors to review rather than making edits due to my COI. I have been making some requests on the Talk page to deal with issues on the page related to the warning flag that mentions advertising content and overreliance on sources related to Dover. My latest request relates to the subsections that discuss the company's different segments: each of these is sourced to references that are company websites. I'd like to suggest removing at least one, and have put forward a specific request for one of the subsections to source some content and remove the rest. One editor shared a few thoughts, but it looks like they are offline or busy currently and they haven't returned. Would any editors here be able to review and provide feedback?

Criteria for company article

What is the criteria for inclusion when it comes to creating articles about companies? Does it come down to how many locations of said company exists? Is a criteria agreed upon?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies)

On the above link it states “Arbitrary standards should not be used to create a bias favoring larger organisations or their products, though articles about very small "garage" or local companies are typically unacceptable per WP:NOTADVERTISING.

Let’s use an example: A relatively new Hotel chain is surging in locations. Does the increase in real estate make said hotel notable? How significant should the new openings be? Should the hotel (or other type of company) be established enough to warrant a Wikipedia article?

Bernard Looney request

Hi editors,

I'm Arturo and I work at bp. A few months ago, changes were made to bp CEO Bernard Looney's article that I do not believe are constructive or relevant to Mr. Looney. I have posted a similar note at WikiProject Biography but so far have not heard anything else about it.

My concerns are with the content added about bp's former dealings with Rosneft (diff here). I believe this content puts too much weight on Rosneft and Igor Sechin and is simply not relevant in an article about Mr. Looney.

Further, I believe the presentation of the information is not reflective of the source material and that is causing the article to take on a non-neutral tone. It is also missing some key information about what happened and bp's separation from Rosneft, namely that bp announced it will sell its stake in Rosneft and that Mr. Looney stepped down from the Rosneft board within days of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. A very minor change was made to correct an inaccuracy but much of the problematic text remains.

I have drafted alternative content that I think better offers a more complete and accurate overview of the situation in a more neutral tone, while remaining focused on Mr. Looney. I think it would be worthwhile to take another look at this content now that some time has passed and more details are available. I am seeking some additional feedback on the text I suggested. I won't make any changes myself because of my COI. Please let me know what you think. Arturo at BP (talk) 16:42, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

LendingClub History request help

Hello! I'm here to ask if I can get some help with a pending edit request on the LendingClub Talk page. I'm an LC employee with a conflict of interest, so I have to submit any ideas I have for improving the page to independent editors for review.

@CNMall41: Thanks for responding. I looked for the original draft and also couldn't locate it. Perhaps it was deleted? It's been a few weeks.

@BenViagas:, the draft is located at Draft:Grayscale Investments. I added a draft template to the top of the page. As far as pointers, I hope you understand and respect that volunteer editors such as myself are not likely to provide you with tips since you are being paid to create the page. That would be like asking my neighbor to go to work for me in the morning. What I would recommend is that you familiarize yourself with the reason it was declined and look over the guidelines listed here prior to submitting the draft again.

Exelixis Page Edit Requests

Hi -- I'm PR support for Exelixis and, since I clearly have a conflict of interest, would like to request the community's help updating the company's page. At a fundamental level, the first sentence of the article doesn't describe the company in its present form -- Exelixis has evolved from a "genomics-based drug discovery company" into a biopharma that discovers, develops, and markets medicines to treat cancer. And prior to 2016, the company was known for Cometriq, but since then, its focus has been on its Cabometyx product -- which has become a global oncology franchise to treat forms of kidney, liver, and thyroid cancers -- and also on building out its pipeline, which now encompasses small molecule drugs as well as biologics (most notably, antibody-drug conjugates). I'd be grateful if an editor with interest in biopharma would consider bringing the page more up to date. Thanks in advance. BlueUser123 (talk) 20:14, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Requesting Assistance With Newfold Digital Draft and Endurance International Group Article

Hello there! I am hoping to get the assistance of an editor with more knowledge and experience than myself (I am quite new to all of this) with improving Draft:Newfold Digital. This article is intended to provide up-to-date information on Newfold Digital for the interested reader. Endurance International Group (EIG) was merged with Web.com Group to form Newfold Digital, and Newfold Digital has since acquired several other companies, as seen in the sources included in the draft. Several editors have proposed moving/renaming EIG to Newfold Digital (and, in fact, it was moved/renamed to Newfold Digital previously until another editor, recognizing these issues, reverted the move). There are several inaccuracies and issues with the EIG article, which I believe provide a strong basis for the creation of a new article, and I have outlined those issues on the EIG article talk page.

I have no interest in using this as a marketing opportunity, nor do I view Wikipedia in that light. I simply would like to see accurate, up-to-date information provided for readers who are interested in learning more about this company, and I believe the company is notable, and that the sources provided bear that out. I am open to any and all feedback, as, again, I am at best completely green when it comes to Wikipedia. I believe this article will be of interest to many readers and I want it to simply be an unbiased and factual description of Newfold Digital. Would anyone be interested in partnering to help get Draft:Newfold Digital over the hump? Zach at Newfold (talk) 19:00, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

The issue I see is the references for Newfold Digital do not meet WP:ORGCRIT. If you can point out the ones that are in-depth about Newfold and not just routine announcements, I will be glad to have a closer look. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:29, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

could someone review the Draft:Brainchip page? Birdmanoftech (talk) 00:57, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

@Birdmanoftech:, it has been reviewed and declined twice. Since it has been resubmitted, it will be reviewed in due time. In the meantime, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID and make the applicable disclosure. --CNMall41 (talk) 05:43, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

@CNMall41: can you explain what you want with this disclosure about conflict of interest and Paid contribution? I am not connected with this company. Birdmanoftech (talk) 23:12, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) @CNMall41: Just pinging again because the previous one, added after that post had been signed, won't have worked AFAIK. PamD 13:38, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

For now I will WP:AGF, although I believe there is some connection to the article based on the tone and the fact you have no other edits outside of a promotional draft. Please note that if you have any connection with the company whatsoever you would be required to disclose it. --CNMall41 (talk) 08:56, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

@CNMall41: could you point out some places with this promotional tone so I can change it. Birdmanoftech (talk) 17:18, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

You were already given an example on the page by the previous reviewer. Look at that example and apply it to the rest of the draft. If it isn't something you would normally read in an encyclopedia, it is likely only there to benefit the company. Unfortunately, I don't completely believe that you do not have a connection with the company so I would not be interested in assisting. --CNMall41 (talk) 08:51, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Unreviewed Featured articles year-end summary

Restoring older Featured articles to standard:

year-end 2022 summary

Unreviewed featured articles/2020 (URFA/2020) is a systematic approach to reviewing older Featured articles (FAs) to ensure they still meet the FA standards. A January 2022 Signpost article called "Forgotten Featured" explored the effort.

Progress is recorded at the monthly stats page. Through 2022, with 4,526 very old (from the 2004–2009 period) and old (2010–2015) FAs initially needing review:

• 357 FAs were delisted at Featured article review (FAR).
• 222 FAs were kept at FAR or deemed "satisfactory" by three URFA reviewers, with hundreds more being marked as "satisfactory", but awaiting three reviews.
• FAs needing review were reduced from 77% of total FAs at the end of 2020 to 64% at the end of 2022.

Of the FAs kept, deemed satisfactory by three reviewers, or delisted, about 60% had prior review between 2004 and 2007; another 20% dated to the period from 2008–2009; and another 20% to 2010–2015. Roughly two-thirds of the old FAs reviewed have retained FA status or been marked "satisfactory", while two-thirds of the very old FAs have been defeatured.

Entering its third year, URFA is working to help maintain FA standards; FAs are being restored not only via FAR, but also via improvements initiated after articles are reviewed and talk pages are noticed. Since the Featured Article Save Award (FASA) was added to the FAR process a year ago, 38 FAs were restored to FA status by editors other than the original FAC nominator. Ten FAs restored to status have been listed at WP:MILLION, recognizing articles with annual readership over a million pageviews, and many have been rerun as Today's featured article, helping increase mainpage diversity.

Examples of 2022 "FAR saves" of very old featured articles

Solar System 2007 FA J. K. Rowling 2007 FA June 26, 2022 TFA Antarctica 2006 FA Joan of Arc 2006 FA Speed of light 2010 FA

All received a Million Award

But there remain almost 4,000 old and very old FAs to be reviewed. Some topic areas and WikiProjects have been more proactive than others in restoring or maintaining their old FAs. As seen in the chart below, the following have very high ratios of FAs kept to those delisted (ordered from highest ratio):

• Biology
• Physics and astronomy
• Warfare
• Video gaming

and others have a good ratio of kept to delisted FAs:

• Literature and theatre
• Engineering and technology
• Religion, mysticism and mythology
• Media
• Geology and geophysics

... so kudos to those editors who pitched in to help maintain older FAs !

FAs reviewed at URFA/2020 through 2022 by content area

B FAR archives show 63 kept at FAR since URFA started at end of Nov 2020. URFA/2020 shows 61 Kept at FAR, meaning two kept were outside of scope of URFA/2020. Total URFA/2020 Keeps (Kept at FAR plus those with three Satisfactory marks) is 150 + 72 = 222.

But looking only at the oldest FAs (from the 2004–2007 period), there are 12 content areas with more than 20 FAs still needing review: Biology, Music, Royalty and nobility, Media, Sport and recreation, History, Warfare, Meteorology, Physics and astronomy, Literature and theatre, Video gaming, and Geography and places. In the coming weeks, URFA/2020 editors will be posting lists to individual WikiProjects with the goal of getting these oldest-of-the-old FAs reviewed during 2023.

Ideas for how you can help are listed below and at the Signpost article.

• Review a 2004 to 2007 FA. With three "Satisfactory" marks, article can be moved to the FAR not needed section.
• Review "your" articles: Did you nominate a featured article between 2004 and 2015 that you have continuously maintained? Check these articles, update as needed, and mark them as 'Satisfactory' at URFA/2020. A continuously maintained FA is a good predictor that standards are still met, and with two more "Satisfactory" marks, "your" articles can be listed as "FAR not needed". If they no longer meet the FA standards, please begin the FAR process by posting your concerns on the article's talk page.
• Review articles that already have one "Satisfactory" mark: more FAs can be indicated as "FAR not needed" if other reviewers will have a look at those already indicated as maintained by the original nominator. If you find issues, you can enter them at the talk page.
• Fix an existing featured article: Choose an article at URFA/2020 or FAR and bring it back to FA standards. Enlist the help of the original nominator, frequent FA reviewers, WikiProjects listed on the talk page, or editors that have written similar topics. When the article returns to FA standards, please mark it as 'Satisfactory' at URFA/2020 or note your progress in the article's FAR.
• Review and nominate an article to FAR that has been 'noticed' of a FAR needed but issues raised on talk have not been addressed. Sometimes nominating at FAR draws additional editors to help improve the article that would otherwise not look at it.

More regular URFA and FAR reviewers will help assure that FAs continue to represent examples of Wikipedia's best work. If you have any questions or feedback, please visit Wikipedia talk:Unreviewed featured articles/2020/4Q2022.

Draft:Sisal (company)

Hi everyone! A few months ago I created a draft dedicated to Sisal (here), an Italian gaming company, starting from the translation of the article already in Italian. I thought it might be interesting to have an article in English given the recent acquisition of the company by Flutter Entertainment.

I was wondering if someone could give me an opinion. Since I work for the company and want to be fully compliant with Wikipedia rules, I thought to write here to get some feedback on whether it might be okay and what needs to be improved. Thanks in advance! Roberta Patrizio (talk) 15:18, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

Riot Games Criticism and controversies draft

Hello! I'm a Riot Games employee looking for help with an edit request I've placed on the company Talk page. I've assembled a draft, which you can view here, that reorganizes and adds fresh information to the article's Criticism and controversies section. New content that I've added to the existing section text is green.

My initial edit request for that draft, which you can view here, summarizes the substance of my proposed improvements. After realizing that asking editors to review a lengthy section draft might be unreasonable, I closed the full section edit request and opened a new one that deals specifically with Riot's response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. You can see that request here.

It would be great if somebody had time to look at the entire Criticism draft, but the open edit request right now is for the Ukraine part of it, which I hope is relatively straightforward. Any help I can get with this would be deeply appreciated. Thanks! JHixson at Riot Games (talk) 17:51, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

Project-independent quality assessments

Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class= parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

RfC on periodicals and publishing companies

This RfC can be found at Draft talk:Honest History (magazine) for discussion about notability requirements leading to bias toward older periodicals and publishers that published pages before the rules were updated. 04:09, 9 April 2023 (UTC) Stcksht (talk) 04:09, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

I see you already received responses to this request which are inline with what I would suggest as well. I would add that you should also be clear on the use of terminology. Things like rules for sources as other categories" and same access to notability" do not make sense in the realm of Wikipedia. --CNMall41 (talk) 05:38, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

@CNMall41: thanks for your reply. I am still learning, but my area of interest is US periodicals and I believe there are necessary improvements to the review process for these pages. My use of 'rules' was taken from a suggestion from editors in live chat, but I believe it's more about the 'process' for review that changed in 2011. From my understanding this change appears to have led to a bias toward pages published before the change. In reviewing many pages at List of United States magazines, they would not meet notability standards under Wikipedia:Notability. However, I don't think these pages should be removed since they are important publications, but rather newer pages should be allowed the same review process so there is not bias toward older periodicals. Periodicals and publishers are unique in that they are themselves considered notable sources in many instances, since they have editors and follow a rigorous review process. It also means that there are not as many independent, in-depth sources for them since publishers in general avoid giving free advertising to competitors. I hope this is helpful as I believe it's very important for newer, but established periodicals to have a place on Wikipedia. Stcksht (talk) 19:42, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Infillion Infobox Edit Request

Hello,

I'm a COI editor working on behalf of the media and advertising company Infillion.

I agree that this isn't at a point for formal RfC. I am not connected to the paid editor. I declined their request for changes to the history section for the reasons I outlined there and the topic I added to the talk page. I would very much appreciate if you could weigh in there if you have thoughts. Best, voorts (talk/contributions) 22:40, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

Just seems strange how a new editor who started this month is immediately jumping in and answering COI requests on company pages. --CNMall41 (talk) 08:06, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm obviously new to Wikipedia, so I don't know how unusual it is for someone to start answering COI requests in their first month of editing; I can only tell you about me. I came across COIs while editing other random stuff, read up on the COI policy, and decided to be bold and jump in. If you think I made an error while handling this COI edit request or another one (see my contribution history), I'd appreciate your feedback. As I noted in my last response, I'd also appreciate any comments you might have on the proposal I shared. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:56, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

Before you go down the WP:BITE accusation road, see WP:PACT. I am sure you can understand why one would ask you such question being that this project monitors company pages which are highly prone to COI edits. I'm watching the request but not going to opine at the moment. I would suggest allowing someone more experienced to look at the COI requests for now but cannot tell you what not to do. Just a suggestion, especially as a newcomer with little experience at it. --CNMall41 (talk) 01:59, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

I do understand why you asked the question, but I found your follow-up comment to be unnecessary and a bit accusatory, particularly since I forthrightly answered your question. If that wasn't your intent, I'm sorry for misinterpreting. voorts (talk/contributions) 03:49, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

Error in article on Xiaomi

In the Wikipedia page on Xiaomi (Xiaomi) there is a sentence

'Xiaomi keeps its prices close to its Economy of Costa Rica and bill of materials costs by keeping most of its products in the market for 18 months, longer than most smartphone companies, The company also uses inventory optimization and Deal of the day to keep its inventory low.'

In this sentence, I think that the reference to the 'Economy of Costa Rica' is an error and should be fixed. I have never done this before so I wanted to know if it is fine that I did it. Shashy 922 (talk) 10:15, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

CME Group Request

Hello! I recently posted a request to the CME Group Talk page and I'm hoping an experienced editor from this WikiProject can take a look at it. Last month an editor who has since been suspended made some rather substantial edits to the article, including cutting out the entire Mergers and acquisitions section. I think the intent here was a good one, as the article did feel bloated. But the end result is that there's now considerable confusion throughout the text about the distinction between CME Group and Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

As such, I put together a proposal that would correct this issue by splitting claims about contemporary operations into a new Operations section and putting historical claims into a restored (but streamlined) Mergers and acquisitions section. I also have a few other minor suggestions in the proposal that address the same core issue.

I have a conflict of interest as I work for CME Group, so I won't be making these changes myself. I am hoping, though, that editors can review what I've put together and provide feedback or simply implement these changes if they seem like an improvement. Lbischel (talk) 18:46, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

Verizon Business remove promotional language

Hello editors, the Verizon Business article has had a banner on it since 2021 that article has content that is written like an advertisement. I have some ideas on proposed changes to make the article more neutral and informative. They can be found on the Verizon Business talk page.

As I work for Verizon and have a conflict of interest, I ask others to look at my draft and make edits on my behalf. Thank you, VZEric (talk) 19:14, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

@VZEric:, thanks for the disclosure. You will need to add the "edit request" template to that section and a COI reviewer will be able to take a look. Take care. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:22, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

does Draft:Tomaz meet the notability criteria

Hi, is there a more specific page about notability criteria for this than WP:NCOMPANY - draft written by Alam295 - does it meet notability criteria? - The way it is written right now does not appear to meet the notability criteria; but I'm interested in someone of you having a quick check of sources yourself to see whether there is anything substantial available elsewhere - (I am a draft reviewer and this is not my strong topic area) Thanks Gryllida (talk, e-mail) 02:06, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Draft: Identiv, Inc.

This is just to check if whether there might be any editors here willing to review Draft:Identiv? The draft has been created by me on their behalf. Any input or comments would be greatly appreciated. Best, /Urbourbo (talk) 19:31, 22 January 2023 (UTC)

On first glance, I would say take out the awards. They don't serve any purpose except for the company to promote itself. I normally don't include any industry awards for companies. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:24, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Thanks @CNMall41: for looking into the draft. I contemplated to merge the awards into the products section, what would be your take on that? I'm thinking that maybe the awards do at least add some notability to the products. Would it be worth editing the draft towards that goal, in your opinion? Any other edits you'd say would be beneficial? Thanks again, /Urbourbo (talk) 09:48, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

"I'm thinking that maybe the awards do at least add some notability to the products" - How so? --CNMall41 (talk) 19:19, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

I'm just thinking that a product that received an award is probably more likely to be notable than a product that did not. Also, that maybe the name of the award and of the awarding organisation could add some context and understanding for the nature of the product. /Urbourbo (talk) 11:11, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

I took a closer look and would say to read over the referencing requirements at WP:ORGCRIT. You will see that references such as Forbes (if written by a contributor and not a staff writer) cannot be used for notability (see WP:RSP). The only reference that I believe would be considered acceptable for notability is the WSJ article under the old company name. The rest of the references can be used to cite content within, but showing notability is the first hurdle. The Fast Company article is good, but from experience I know editors would be 50/50 about that one since it is promotional about its award and not really in-depth. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:43, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the input. There's a wealth of articles written about them in publications of various sizes so I might not have been able to distill the most relevant for sourcing. I'll make sure to reach out to their team to see if I might have missed any articles compliant with the criteria. In the meantime, any further other input would of course be appreciated. /Urbourbo (talk) 11:11, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

@CNMall41: Just a note that I took the time to add a revision to this draft based on your input. Any further input would be greatly appreciated. /Urbourbo (talk) 18:13, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Were you able to look at the guideline here at WP:ORGCRIT? Let me know how the new sourcing you added meets this criteria. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:22, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks @CNMall41:, there are probably other articles written in the past since its 1990 founding, but so far I have not been able to identify further such articles. However, my hope would be that the draft's existing references in combination with the company's long history and the public interest stemming from its Nasdaq listing in combination would be considered an acceptable basis for notability. Maybe there are other opinions on this as well?

Either way, I have a hard time accepting the declination by @Compusolus: which was made on the grounds of it being written "like an advertisement". We put considerable time and effort into ensuring that the text did follow guidelines on neutrality, verifiability, and so on. If there are any particular sections of the draft that are written "like an advertisement", I would be more than happy to go over it and see what can be done to further improve. Would I be advisable to resubmit without the Products section perhaps, although well-referenced? Any input would be appreciated. /Urbourbo (talk) 16:17, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Mity-Lite

Anyone from this Wikipedia Project ever heard of Mity-Lite? It's a furniture company based out in Utah and the article about it probably has been subject to quite a bit of undisclosed COI/PAID editing over the years. I wondering why the article's title is hyphenated since the company's official website treats the name as one word. Does anyone know whether the name changed to a non-hyphened version over the years? Anyway, if someone knows more about the company or can find out more about the company and has the time to try and clean things up, then that would be most appreciated. I've tried to do a bit myself, but more is probably needed. It also probably needs to be assessed per WP:NCORP. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:55, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

@Marchjuly:, I see it used both ways in references, but most of them use MityLite so not sure why the hyphen. When COI editing is involved, I normally search all variations as it is possible the page under other titles is protected from creation so an editor may try to create under an alternative title. That is just FYI if you run into similar circumstance, I did not find that to be the case here after searching. Based on the search I just did online, I am not sure this meets WP:ORGCRIT to be honest. --CNMall41 (talk) 05:27, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Seeking editor input on United States Postal Service edit request

Hey there! I'm here to ask editors at this WikiProject if they would like to review an edit request I placed on the United States Postal Service Talk page. I'm looking to update the article section that covers the agency's operations during the Trump administration. You can view my request, which lays out my proposed changes in detail, by following this link. My primary goals are to ensure that descriptions of events in the agency's history are fully correct, and to add fresh information that's been reported by reputable press outlets.

As you can probably tell from my username, I'm a USPS employee, so I'm operating with a COI. I'm using the edit request system, and traveling to this WP, because the changes I'm seeking to the Postal Service's article need to be reviewed by independent editors. WP Companies is listed on the USPS Talk page, so I figured this would be a good place to find such editors. If you have any questions, please reach out or reply under my request on the USPS Talk page. Thanks! Jonathan with U.S. Postal Service (talk) 15:57, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

Engineering/technical aspects of technology companies

Hello, I am interested in adding the technical and engineering aspects of technology companies to their articles. For example, Etsy is not just a marketplace, it is a technology company that solves a lot of engineering challenges in order to adequately service its users, both customers and merchants. It's evidenced by their rich development blog that the company (obviously) puts in a lot of work to service their product (the marketplace).

Although this work may not be covered by prominent secondary sources since it's a bit niche, I believe it is WP:DUE both by the fact that Etsy is a large company that generates substantial revenue and the amount of publishing done on their blog (it's among the liveliest dev blogs I've seen).

For reference, I am expanding Reddit's technical section, which before my edits did have significant technical detail but hadn't been update in some time, and Facebook also has such a section. However, this expansion of Reddit technical aspects relies heavily on primary sources with some secondary sources, but I ensure to use them appropriately. Reddit is one of the most popular sites in the world and it would make sense to document some of what they do to keep themselves running.

I myself have reservations about this as it seems not many company articles have details on their engineering efforts despite being technology (one exception is Google, having an article for PageRank and such). I was worried about WP:NOTEVERYTHING and WP:BIT, but I do think the effort is within the spirits of an encyclopedia to catalogue high-level engineering as that is what improves the company, keeps it running, etc.

Would love to hear thoughts on this! Fuser55 (talk) 06:36, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

"this work may not be covered by prominent secondary sources" - This statement says much of what would apply here. Just because a company has a blog dedicated to it doesn't mean Wikipedia should cover it. A company that is large and generates substantial revenue" doesn't mean it deserves to have information not covered by reliable secondary source. The argument about Reddit should be the opposite. We don't include information on one page simply because it exists on another. If anything, information on Reddit should be removed if it solely supported by primary sources. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:10, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Draft: Beyond Now

Hello, I'm wondering if there might be any editors here willing to review Draft:Beyond Now? It's been declined for a 2nd time for reading 'like an advertisement' however care has been taken to make sure all the content is plain and factual, covering only the history of the company and its link to the parent company (which has an existing page on Wikipedia), and current operations. All references are external, neutral and verifiable. Any feedback on what else needs to change would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Fifi Dee 23 (talk) 18:37, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

@Fifi Dee 23:, First, thanks for your COI disclosure. I am the second editor who declined based on the Advert criteria. I would have a look at WP:TONE, WP:IMPARTIAL, and WP:WTW. Being factual doesn't always mean it is included. And, if included, it still must be written in a style that is custom to an encyclopedia. Another issue is self-promotion which can be seen in the sentence - "Beyond Now is built on the heritage of Infonova, a BSS provider and subsidiary of BearingPoint." The reference used for that statement says nothing about Beyond Now and is also a press release. This means you wrote the statement with what you wanted it to say and not what the source says (and the source is not considered independent since it is a press release). --CNMall41 (talk) 19:05, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for your feedback and guidelines, it's much appreciated. The BearingPoint reference I added was to illustrate the Infonova and BearingPoint connection, but I understand your point that it came from a press release and it's related to the parent company and not Beyond Now itself, so that has been removed. It's worth flagging that Beyond By BearingPoint IS Beyond Now (just the former name) so all those references are valid. As the article is so short I struggled a little bit to see any other major instances of impartiality. I changed 'serves customers' to 'operates' to neutralise the language a bit more there and replaced 'actively works' with 'works' so as not to introduce bias. I also replaced 'services many leading companies' with 'services telecommunications providers' to ensure a more neutral tone. When you have a moment, can you take another look and let me know if it's ok resubmit in its current state or if there are any more issues? Many thanks. Fifi Dee 23 (talk) 07:57, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

You are free to resubmit whenever you think it meets guidelines. The issue here is that you failed to take into account my entire reply. I gave you one example of a self-promotional issue which you fixed. You did nothing to address everything else. As a paid editor, you will need the competence to ensure the draft adheres to all policies and guidelines. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:49, 29 June 2023 (UTC)--CNMall41 (talk) 18:49, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

There were good faith attempts to address everything else. I was asking for further specifics and I'm still learning. I hope that's apparent. Seeing as the WP:CIR page states: "articles can be improved in small steps, rather than being made perfect in one fell swoop", I'll try again. Fifi Dee 23 (talk) 08:07, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Saying that WP:CIR is required for a paid editor does not mean you are incompetent. The term isn't literal in that way. The specific bullet points of that essay is #2 and #4. As a paid editor, you are here for a single purpose which is to create a Wikipedia page for the person paying you. The purpose of Wikipedia is to build a free comprehensive encyclopedia. While many of us will guide you through the process, we will not do the work for you (give you specifics). I did provide you with one example, but no one else will likely do the work for you as we are not being compensated and it is not our purpose for being here. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:58, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Figure (company)

Hello, WikiProject,

I was wondering if you business experts thought it was too soon for an article on this startup. They are in the product development phase, after raising millions of dollars but I'm not sure what the policy here is on startups like this one. Thanks for any advice you can offer. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 21:16, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

@Liz:, I think the threshold for what we require for companies goes beyond what is here in this article. Technically, yes, a startup like this could have a Wikipedia page as long as it meets WP:NCORP, but that is hard to do for startups. The references must meet WP:ORGCRIT and if you take away the blogs, routine announcements (funding, etc.), there are really only a couple that come close (Wired, The Robb Report, and Fox). And, those three are full of quotes from the company so I do not see much support for this if it went to AfD. I also find it suspicious that the draft was declined but then moved to main space by an editor with only 60 edits. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:35, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

@Liz:, I see it was moved back to draft earlier today. The right move IMHO. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:02, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

BP request

Hi editors,

I'd made a request of the BP article, a small update noting a new rig, the sale of a refinery, and updating the list of board of directors. Lightoil was kind enough to give me the go-ahead to make the changes myself, but given extensive media coverage and conversations that happened when Arturo at BP followed Wikipedia's rules by suggesting edits to Wikipedia using discussion pages, I'm not comfortable making direct edits myself, even if given permission to do so. Would anyone here be willing to make those updates on my behalf? I'd really appreciate it! Vishal BP (talk) 10:19, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Looks like this was already addressed. If not, please let me know. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:50, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

@CNMall41: It has been partially addressed, with Lightoil giving me the go-ahead to make changes, but past discussions involving my colleague Arturo's contributions (also entirely on Talk pages/in the draft space) like this one and this one, as well as a long history of not directly editing the article, make me not want to take that step and directly edit. I'm really trying to keep everything as above board as possible and avoid those discussions in the future. Vishal BP (talk) 08:27, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

If an editor stated it was okay to make the change, especially for something uncontroversial and unlikely to be challenged, then you can make the edit. --CNMall41 (talk) 16:55, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

@ADMDane:, please make sure you put the "request edit" template in the section where you are proposing edits. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:35, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi CNMall41. I'm trying to generate feedback from multiple editors about my proposed draft before I actually request its implementation. I'd especially like to hear from those who have been active on the ADM page in the past. Right now there's a single editor immediately responding to all "request edit" prompts, and they're closing discussion before other voices have a chance to comment. I'm not trying to shut them out, I just want to make sure there's actual community consensus driving these decisions. I would genuinely appreciate any feedback you might have, as I can see you're an experienced editor. ADMDane (talk) 18:43, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

@ADMDane: If you are referring to Spintendo, they are not just a single editor who doesn't reflect community consensus. They are using previous community consensus to review and opine on your requests and I have faith in their judgment. It does not require multiple editors to opine in a COI request. If you have a specific issue with what they declined, you can address that item specifically with them or use other avenues such as WP:3O or WP:RfC if you still disagree. I would advise that you focus on the actual comments to any decline and not the editor's behavior unless they are doing something that violates Wikipedia guidelines. I would also suggest keeping your edit requests brief so they are easier to review and implement. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:57, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Appreciate your insights into this, CNMall41. It’s good to get another perspective. I’ll think about how I can best proceed in that case. I have tried to respond directly to that editor's feedback and to address points of clarification they requested. Unfortunately, they have edited my Talk page posts so that other editors can't see those responses. That made me wary of continuing to engage with only them. ADMDane (talk) 19:46, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Sponsorships, awards and ratings

Is there a present consensus on when sponsorships and awards should be listed? The lists I encounter are usually based on WP:PRIMARY sources or news coverage based on press-releases and I'm struggling to see how they improve articles (WP:NOTDIRECTORY, WP:LISTCRITERIA), but they're so prevalent that perhaps there are reasons why editors see them as valuable? Examples: 1xBet#Sponsors, NatWest#Sponsorship.

Many articles also have customer ratings similar to the Net promoter score, which may be measured by a third party, but there is no clear indication whether the third party is independent and the sourcing is typically non-independent. One example I removed is Special:Diff/1169434568.

My gut feeling is that they don't improve articles and shouldn't be present unless there's independent coverage indicating that the fact of the company being rated by customers or having a marketing partnership / awards is important and the circumstances warrant an in-depth coverage, but perhaps I see it over-zealously? PaulT2022 (talk) 03:17, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

I am not sure if there has been a discussion anywhere that has garnered consensus. Personally, I remove any awards unless it is notable or necessary to show why the company is notable. Same with sponsorships as those seem more like an attempt at inherent notability. Few exceptions of course. As far as the example you provided, I would say that was 100% correct to remove.

@The Phil Pixie: It's completely unsourced, so it really can't be evaluated. However, random lists of vague services and quoting "missions" is often a way to plug in irrelevant marketing claims, and you'll need to clean up other marketing jargon like "handling extensive data volumes at pace, facilitating client insights". High-quality, reliable, third-party sources that discuss the company in depth are critical, otherwise this will be declined if submitted. Sam Kuru (talk) 11:14, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks Sam, I'll bear that in mind and work on it more. Apreciate the guidence The Phil Pixie 12:25, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Can I approve an article if I find it good enough?

Hi, as a migrant in Germany who is into start-ups I have sporadically in the past edited articles about German start-ups and I think I might have even created one or two articles. I was trying the other day to create an article about an insurance start-up that offers services in English, so that other migrants are able to find more information about it. For full disclosure, I currently work at the company. While trying to start the article I realized that there is one already in review status. This is the one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Getsafe To me it looks good enough, compared with other articles in the English Wikipedia about German start-ups that I have seen or edited in the past. I don't even know how to approve it, but it is better than the one I would have created starting from scratch and I think it would be better to have than not have it. But I am not interested to die on this hill :D , nor have my editing rights rescinded, so I thought to ask here. To be clear, my employer did not ask me to approve the article or anything (I don't work in marketing/PR), I just found it by myself while trying to create it. ditsonis (talk) 09:55, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Granite Telecommunications

I noticed Draft:Granite Telecommunications. From a search, it appears that there is enough out there for the company to meet notability guidelines. The draft has issues, but I think is salvageable. Thriley (talk) 23:12, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

I looked at the draft references and also did a quick search and I only see one article (from The Boston Globe) that would meet WP:ORGCRIT unless there is something I am missing. The Fortune and Forbes articles are from contributors. --CNMall41 (talk) 05:40, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Naming staff in company articles

Hi, I'm wondering what the guidance is for naming staff in company articles - in Goddard School, for example (article is about the company and franchise rather than a specific school). I'm aware that in school articles staff apart from the headteacher should not normally be mentioned (essay guidelines at WP:WPSCH/AG#WNTI). Is there a similar guideline for companies? Thanks. Tacyarg (talk) 10:50, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

I believe WP:PST and WP:NOTDIRECTORY would apply. PaulT2022 (talk) 19:21, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

That article is downright terrible. 90% of it was name dropping and office location mentions. I redirected that to the founder's page as an alternative to deletion for blatant advertisement. Graywalls (talk) 08:37, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

What to do about articles that have only "product launch" sources and are thus adverts?

E.g. the article Ticketbud is tagged with "advert" template, but it does accurately reflect what the source say.

But the issue is that sources are all "product launch" pieces. So information available in sources, when compiled to an article, will have characteristics of advertisements.

And what if the article isn't substantial (it's a stub) without that information? ACaseOfWednesdays (talk) 03:37, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

We do not include everything that is included in reliable sources. Just because something can be sourced doesn't mean it adheres to other guidelines such as WP:PROMO or WP:NPOV. I will take a quick look and see if there is any cleanup that can be done. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:45, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

For instance, in that article removing "Products and Features" section (and relevant sentences from intro) would make the article a stub. Is that okay to do? Should citations be preserved somehow, e.g. as external links?

But this is common for startup companies: getting either promotional articles published, or even just keeping on talking about their products and features when they're being interviewed. ACaseOfWednesdays (talk) 07:16, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

Another example I find is Fjällräven which has a large section of "Products". Though the wiki coverage tries to follow historical evolution of the products.

What would need to be done for the Template:Advert to be removed from it? Add more information to the article so that "Products" remains only a small part of it? Remove "Products" section altogether? Edit "products" to remove some information?

Is a reader who visits a company's wikipedia page to put its offerings in historical context a valid use-case that wikipedia caters to? If so, then some mention of product features (e.g. when comparing to company's earlier product) is natural, but that might also be exactly the same feature that company highlights in its marketing copy.

Updating Global Strategy Group History and organization section

Hello! I'm visiting this WP on behalf of my employer, Global Strategy Group. On the GSG Talk page, I have proposed updates to the company article's History and organization section and was wondering if editors here would like to review them. You can see my Talk page post by following this link. Because I'm asking for a fair number of revisions, I have also built a subpage within my user space that compares my proposed changes against the current History and organization section. You can view that by clicking here.

If you read through the Talk page post and the subpage I've built, everything I'm asking to update should be understandable, but I'm happy to answer questions should editors need clarification on anything. Also open to discussion on how the section might be improved further.

Thank you, ES at Global Strategy Group (talk) 20:37, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Would anyone be interested in starting a new WikiProject?

I've been thinking recently about creating a wikiproject for Japanese keiretsu. They're usually massive sets of companies, such as Mitsubishi for example, who operate in virtually every industry and have thousands of companies under the "Mitsubishi" name. Would anyone be interested in such a WikiProject? It'd be quite similar to this one, except for keiretsu. —Panamitsu (talk) 01:06, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

Seeking input on a company merger

Six Flags and Cedar Fair are merging, and the combined company will be called Six Flags. Both articles have extensive histories. Merging both articles would be difficult to do. Need some ideas on how to best proceed once the merger is complete in 2024. Please see Talk:Six Flags#Merge with Cedar Fair. Thank you! --GoneIn60 (talk) 17:13, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

The best approach (IMHO) would be to rename Six Flags to Six Flags (original) and use the Six Flags title for a new article about the merged company (umm, riffing off the top of my head here). Six Flags (original) and Cedar Fair would remain but would indicate an appropriate 'fate' value. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:37, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

This is a good suggestion, however, I am concerned with the fact that Six Flags has been owned by multiple companies over the years so the "original" ceased to exist many years ago. Perhaps a name like Six Flags prior to Cedar Fair merger might be more appropriate — although kind of wordy for a page title.—JlACEer (talk) 03:59, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Well, at least the suggestion is similar to what I've been harping on at that linked discussion above: renaming the original Six Flags article. Probably shouldn't be that wordy for the title, but that's the right idea. I brought it up here, because it's probably pretty rare see two large companies form an "equal" merger but retain the exact name of one of the merging companies. I envision a similar approach to what was done at Sirius XM, which is to briefly summarize each former company's history and link back to the original articles for further detail. --GoneIn60 (talk) 16:07, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Where is the move discussion you're referring to? User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 23:53, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Maybe something like Six Flags (before 2024) or Six Flags (pre-2024)? User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 23:52, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the interest and feedback. The linked discussion posted above is a preemptive one, meaning we are not looking to perform an action now. The merger is still in its early stages and has a ways to go before completion; plus it can still fail. The goal is to understand how a merger of this magnitude would be handled, and also when one of the merging companies' previous names is being selected for the new company. I like those suggestions as well as the one offered in the linked discussion above: Six Flags (1956–2024). It would be great if you could add your thoughts/suggestions to that discussion, so we have everything in one place. Thanks! --GoneIn60 (talk) 14:21, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

Looking to replace promotional content in Canada Goose article

Hello! I'm a Canada Goose employee working as a COI editor to improve the company's article. On the Goose Talk page, I've asked independent editors to review a new Products section that I have drafted. The purpose of this draft is to strengthen the article by providing concrete details about the goods that Canada Goose manufactures and sells. My intention is for this section to replace the existing Marketing one, which isn't terribly substantial and has lots of content that I think most editors would deem promotional. The article has a "written like an advertisement" tag at the top, and I believe that cutting the Marketing section will fix (or at least ameliorate) that problem. If anyone here would like to take a look at my Products draft, use this link to view my Talk page post. I'm open to any and all feedback, so please don't hesitate to reach out.

Seeking review of NerdWallet Products and services changes

Hello there! Would anyone at this WikiProject be interested in reviewing a few changes I'm proposing to the opening paragraph of the NerdWallet article's Products and services section? I'm a NerdWallet employee operating as a COI editor, so I can't make direct edits myself.

If you follow this link to the NW Talk page, you'll see that I had been talking to an independent editor about these changes, but they dropped off the thread. I tried reaching out to them once, to no avail. I feel that's all I'm entitled to do, since I'm operating as a paid editor and they're a volunteer. They should use their time as they see fit, but it does leave my changes stuck mid-review. If someone here would pick up where the previous editor left off, I'd really appreciate it. And if you've got further feedback for me, I'm all ears. Thanks! KB at NerdWallet (talk) 17:08, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Full company names and lead references

Hi WikiProject Companies, I'd like to raise a run of edits by an editor on British company pages that could do with some discussion. Strugglehouse is interpreting guidance at MOS:TM#Multiple,_changed,_and_former_names to mean that all company articles must start with their full legal name including "plc" "or ltd.", "limited" etc., exactly as per the documentation from companies house, and with two references added to each lead to support this name. (Some examples, [8], [9] or see Talk:Butlin's#Title) This, even when the trading name and article common name are different, which contradicts MOS:FIRST which says: If possible, the page title should be the subject of the first sentence. It also runs agains MOS:LEADCITE and WP:OVERCITE in that we are gaining 2 lead citations in every lead simply for the first bolded word. This appears to me to be unnecessary lead clutter.

To my mind, the Multiple changed and former names guidance is making the point that we should always use the company's current legal identity before any previous one. The guidance does suggest that plc/ltd. etc. should be included in that description, but many (most?) company articles across Wikipedia don't include those in the first sentence. Is there additional guidance on this? Has the matter been discussed before? What are the thoughts of project members here? Thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:10, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Part of this dispute can be viewed in the edit history at Whitbread, where--outside of this policy discussion--the company seems satisfied with the name "Whitbread"...that name appearing eight times on the front page of the company website, while "Whitbread PLC" appears just once.

Per WP:SILENCE I'll be reverting out the excessive lead citations being added and will have to defer to local consensus on the plc issue. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 14:37, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Category hierarchy

I recently requested a number of categories

• Category:Industrial companies

• Category:Companies involved with consumer discretionary goods

All three requests were declined.

The intention was to recreate the actual hierarchy used by real-world schemes such as Industry Classification Benchmark and Global Industry Classification Standard, where 8 of the 11 top-level categories already exist. See

Category:Companies by industry

An example branch would be

Companies by industry ≫ Consumer Discretionary ≫ Consumer Products and Services ≫ Household Goods and Home Construction ≫ Household Furnishings ≫ {all the companies}

Any thoughts on how we can move forward?

Nobody?!

Other branches would be

• Consumer Staples ≫ Food, Beverage & Tobacco ≫ Beverages ≫ Brewers ≫ {all the companies}
• Industrials ≫ Transportation ≫ Marine Transportation ≫ {all the companies}

Global Strategy Group Advocacy campaigns section

Hello, I'm an employee at the political consulting firm Global Strategy Group. This WikiProject is listed at the top of the GSG Talk page, so I thought it might be a good place to find editors interested in reviewing an edit request that I placed in early March. The request contains a draft for a brand new Advocacy campaigns section for the GSG article. As currently constructed, the article has plenty of information about the firm's electoral and corporate work, but not much about the work it has done on social and political issues like gun safety, abortion access, and criminal justice reform. These efforts have been extensively covered by reputable press outlets, so it seems to me like an information gap worth filling.

If any of this sounds compelling, feel free to use this link, which will take your straight to my request. Obviously, my idea is to have the draft pass through independent editor review and get added to the article, but constructive criticism would also be deeply appreciated. Thanks!

Proposed infobox for corporate groupings

I've been working on an infobox for corporate groupings, though I'm not entirely certain if there is a proper name for them. This would come in especially handy for articles such as Big Tech, Big Four accounting firms, and perhaps other corporate group sorts too, such as the Baby Bells, or (to a lesser extent) cartels such as the Phoebus cartel. Labels would include logos, focus location (Silicon Valley for Big Tech, Michigan for the Big Three in automobile manufacturers e.g.), major companies, minor companies, sector, related groups, and so on. Template:Infobox company does not suffice in providing this information currently.

Does anyone have any comments on what this phenomenon should be called and how a proper infobox should flow from this? TheNk22 (talk) 18:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

I would be happy to take a look but do not see the template. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:30, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm a Fastly employee wondering if anyone here would be available to field an active edit request on the company Talk page.

Sam Yagan edit request

Hello to all,

I would like to alert editors on WikiProject Companies to an open edit request I have. The request is to update the article on OkCupid co-founder Sam Yagan at Talk:Sam_Yagan#Request_to_add_Corazon_Capital_subsection. This is to add a subsection on Yagan's company Corazon Capital. I made this request on behalf of Yagan through my work at Corazon Capital. Thank you for considering. CBCorazon (talk) 18:40, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Encyclopedic value of having ranking badge about companies

Like "the second best place to work in..." "the largest x in y sector based in z locality". As I was checking out sources for Hoffman Construction Company, I noticed one source says "the eighth largest general contractor in the Portland metro ranked by billings" (https://www.bizjournals.com/portland/news/2024/01/19/hoffman-construction-lake-oswego-downtown-portland.html) and another article from the same source says " the second-largest general contractor in the Portland metro." (https://www.bizjournals.com/portland/news/2019/04/10/breaking-the-silence-construction-workers-are-at.html). Both articles are likely correct given for the conditional parameters in place. Do such ranking have encyclopedic value and should it even be included in company articles? Graywalls (talk) 03:15, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

@Graywalls:, I think some rankings do. However, we probably shouldn't go that far down the rabbit hole. For example, saying "eighth largest general contractor by billing in Portland" is something the company would want people to know, but would people reading Wikipedia really want to know that? For example, I used it on MCR Hotels to say it is the fourth largest hotel operator by room count in the U.S. as that is something on a much larger scale. I would NOT include something like "3rd largest operator of hotels with pools in Miami" (I made that up - no idea if they do). I think it would be a COMMONSENSE judgement but cannot see how being 8th in a metropolitan area for anything is encyclopedic. Just my 2 cents. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:08, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

And actually I just changed it as this from a Forbes staff writer says 3rd largest. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:15, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Amazon request on Global Strategy Group Talk page

Hello there! I'm Aaron, an employee at the political consulting and polling firm Global Strategy Group. I'm reaching out on behalf of the firm to ask editors at this WikiProject if they would be interested in reviewing an edit request we have placed to update GSG's article's Amazon subsection. The goal of the request (linked here) is to add relevant information about what GSG did following the incidents already described in the subsection. These additions are pretty modest and shouldn't take too much time for editors to review. If anyone here could help me out, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks, Aaron for GSG (talk) 15:54, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

USPS Deliveries section edit request

Hello everybody, I'm here to draw in feedback on an edit request I've made over on the USPS Talk page. For full transparency, I have a COI, which you can read a bit about on my Talk page.

I'm looking for feedback on an edit request for the article's Deliveries section, which would update some figures for mail delivery statistics that are outdated.

To any editors with questions, feel free to ping me, and I'll be standing by to respond. I see that the editor CNMall41 has been helpful recently in replying to requests, so I'll ping you here. Thank you so much for taking the time to read. Jonathan with U.S. Postal Service (talk) 13:32, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Back on this thread to update that an editor has come by and implemented my request. However, I'm still seeking feedback on my Delivering for America subsection edit request. If any editors have the time to head over there and evaluate that request, that would be fantastic. I'll be around to respond if there are any questions. There's been much discussion on the request already, and I've implemented feedback from editors, so I believe the draft is in a great place but needs additional review at this time.

New page for A&O Shearman

Hi all, I’m hoping someone can help with a new Wikipedia page please. From May 1, the law firms Allen & Overy and Shearman & Sterling will merge to become A&O Shearman. I work for Kekst CNC, a communications agency that is working with both law firms ahead of their merger in May.

We're engaging as a member of the Wikipedia community having signed the official agency/Wikipedia agreement set out here Wikipedia:Statement_on_Wikipedia_from_participating_communications_firms. This means we follow guidelines, most importantly understanding we have COI, meaning we let members of the Wikipedia community decide (or not decide) to make changes for us.

With the launch of the new firm, a new Wikipedia page will need to be set up. We’ll be submitting a draft after 1 May due to legal requirements. We have two questions:

1.     What should happen to the existing A&O and S&S pages on Wikipedia? We can include this content in a merged draft for A&O Shearman if this is the right process.

2.     Please can an editor review our draft once made available in May please?

Thanks. MichaelPWhite (talk) 16:11, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

@MichaelPWhite:, thanks for the questions. First, there does not "need" to be a new page set up, per se. The creation of a new page depends on notability. Is the new firm notable on its own. Is it a true merger or is one acquiring the other? There are many caveats and what sources say will determine the best route (merger pages, creation of a redirect, new page, etc.). You are free to create a draft and someone will review but it may not be necessary depending. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:34, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

@MichaelPWhite:, I see that A&O Shearman was created by user @Zotezangu: on May 3, 2024. Seeking your opinions about whether the other two should be merged into the new or if the new one is even necessary. I see a lot of routine coverage for A&O Shearman but nothing that really amounts to WP:ORGCRIT. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:10, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

@CNMall41 Thank you for pointing that out.

Who the founders are of merged banks

Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, UBS, Citigroup, NationsBank are examples of bank that have been formed by mergers. The founders in the infobox of them are the CEOs who happen to be in charge when the mergers occured. I would like to ask if this is acceptable to put it like this or would it be considered extrapolation on the level WP:OR. Right now I cannot really see the sources that explicitly call them "founders". Imcdc Contact 04:30, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

@Emiya1980: - Pinging user to share his POV

• They shouldn't have founders listed in that case. Merging two companies together is not the same as founding a company. Not every infobox field needs to be filled in. Toohool (talk) 14:18, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
• Agreed.

Probably an RFC was unnecessary, but we may as well see how it goes. Please make sure to notify each of those article talk pages of this centralised discussion. — HTGS (talk) 20:14, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

• The founders of a company are the ones most directly responsible for its formation. If the CEOs of the pre-merger companies negotiated and oversaw the merger giving rise to an entirely new company, then they meet this qualification.Emiya1980 (talk) 02:48, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  Shouldn't each individual page have an Rfc devoted to this matter? What is good for the editors of one page will most likely diverge from the opinions of those associated with another.Emiya1980 (talk) 03:04, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  If we find reason to treat some articles as having different needs to others, then we can discuss each of those separately, but I doubt we will find that five different discussions are necessary. — HTGS (talk) 03:38, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  It looks like stretching the evidence. CEOs are not normally the majority owners of a large company, let alone a bank. While they may own stock, they are primarily professionals hired to run the affairs by the shareholders (equity owners, bondholders) who control the company. The CEOs may be trusted with taking the initiative, but are ultimately responsible to those who hired them and will be expected to consult key decisions such as mergers with them. JP Morgan Chase only list the original founders as "founders". VampaVampa (talk) 03:49, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  VampaVampa One problem though. Nearly all the figures that are referenced have been dead for almost a century at the time of JPMOrgan Chase's formation. So they can't be really called that company's actual founders, can they? Emiya1980 (talk) 03:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  Sure, I am not saying we should accept the forefathers as founders - just pointing out that the bank in question prefers us not to know about its recent history. But as others have said, it is fine to draw a blank in the absence of information on who actually decided the mergers. VampaVampa (talk) 11:06, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

• Stick to the predecessor(s) field for such mergers and leave out the founders field. Also MOS:INFOBOXPURPOSE says an article should remain complete with its summary infobox ignored. Some of the founders listed in the BoA and JPM infoboxes for example have no mentions in the body, likely because as Imcdc pointed out this is just extrapolation and we are not going to find sources that would call them founders. Ptrnext (talk) 05:15, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
• Delete: Agree with several above, remove the founders infobox field for these banks all together, they are generally not the result of one merger but of several; and its confusing, A.P. Giannini is both famous for and what you get when you google founder of Bank of America, and no he was not involved in that merger, and it is true that these merger are not the same as just buying another company, rather they took a name or brand, someone else founded, and sometimes a different post-merger name, and then that changes again. -- Alanscottwalker (talk) 10:13, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
• I agree that those CEOs are not meaningfully founders. Where we can straightforwardly provide the founders of predecessor CEOs, we could, e.g.:

J.X. Ample (Fooian Bank)

Jimbo Wales (First Bank of Foo)

But we can also just leave that parameter blank. --BDD (talk) 18:57, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes. Founder in this context is meaningless. Lukewarmbeer (talk) 10:36, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

• Remove the "founders" from the infobox. Founders are more popularly thought of as creators of a company from scratch. In all the news articles of mergers over the years, I have never heard of CEOs of merging companies referred to as "founders". If CEOs' names are reported on in the references in relation to a merger, this factoid could be included in the History subsection of company articles. Occasionally, a list of former CEOs of a company might be noteworthy or appropriate, but that also is relative to individual articles. CEOs involved in merger process are primarily serving as business functionaries, and not otherwise noteworthy due to the merger happening. WmLawson (talk) 18:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

  @WmLawson Yup, I second this and 100% agree. Founders are from scratch. The founders of merged banks should be traced back to their predecessors and if their predecessor was a merged bank, which is the case for NationsBank then all the way to the first entity. That would be the founder. A CEO is just the top job at the end of the day, but still a job. Alexysun (talk) 17:02, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Azets

Hi everyone, I've created a new stub for the company Azets. I notice that smaller firms such as Campbell Dallas which are now part of Azets have their own page. As such, it seems sufficiently large to merit a page of its own. The page could do with some expansion, however, I've tried to at least include a few links as a guide to people wanting to build on the stub. Nyctimene (talk) 17:33, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

@Nyctimene:, I moved to draft space and left the following comment which I will copy here - "There is a lot of information that is not sourced. It is also highly promotional in tone which could lead to it being deleted speedily without discussion. I am moving to draftspace for now so you can work on the cleanup.

Lists of executives, directors and employees in company articles

Noticed that there has been some edit warring going on at Macquarie Group, specifically in relation to the leadership section. Is there is a specific policy section on this? From my observations normally only the Chair, CEO and any people who have their own article are mentioned in company articles.

There are some notable former people in Macquarie Group template that have linked articles, but does an article really benefit from listing every executive, every board member and every former ceo listed when they don't have a linked article? Tumusronad (talk) 12:55, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Levenger Company

Could someone from this WikiProject take a look at Levenger Company? I'm not sure "Company" needs to be part of the name of the article since the sources cited in the article seem to refer to it simply as "Levenger". -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:44, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

I moved it and fixed the Wikidata description as well. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:15, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
