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!

Hello editors, I was wondering if anyone here might be willing to review a basic request I had to update the infobox of the Florida Power & Light article. I have a conflict of interest with FPL so I can't make the change myself. I'd really appreciate it! FPL Daniel ( talk) 17:32, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Leadership of the Walt Disney Company until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.Trailblazer101 ( talk) 15:20, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
There’s a discussion about the unflattering categorization of a company according to a minority opinion that falls under the umbrella of this WikiProject. Talk:Primerica#Discussion_about_undue_weight_of_minority_viewpoint ]] I have a conflict as an employee of Primerica. Would any editors be willing to join in the discussion? The issue requires the informed viewpoints of neutral participants. Thanks. TermLifeOG ( talk) 16:37, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

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)
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.

Hi! I'm an employee of Chime. I posted an edit request on the article's Talk page. Would anyone here be interested in reviewing my proposed changes to clean up some single-sentence paragraphs? Thanks in advance! Chime rep DB ( talk) 21:06, 1 May 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. My request contains a draft for a new Acquisitions section, which I think will improve the article by organizing all pertinent information about purchases the company has made over the last few years. The link to the request is here, if you want to take a look. Thank you in advance to any independent editors who help out with the review process! Jagger at Fastly ( talk) 19:58, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

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)

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)
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)
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)
Hi! I'm an Index Ventures employee, and I posted an edit request to the article's Talk page to try and update the History section. If any editors have the time to check out this request, I'd appreciate it greatly. Kelsey at Index ( talk) 15:46, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Hello again,
Thank you to editors here for implementing the last request. I have another open edit request on the article about Sam Yagan at Talk:Sam_Yagan#Request_to_update_Excelerate_Labs_and_IAC_information. This is to add some information about some of Yagan's previous companies. I made this request on behalf of Yagan through my work at Corazon Capital. Thank you for considering.

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
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.

Hey there! I'm a Sysco employee looking to make improvements to the company article. I currently have an edit request on the Sysco Talk page that invites editors to review a rewrite of the History section. In this draft, I try to better organize the section, substantiate claims with quality sources, and add new information about the company, particularly its first few decades of operation. One editor has already taken a look at the draft and revised it slightly, and they said I should reach out to other editors to get their feedback, so that we can form a solid consensus. The draft/request is linked here. Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to review! KM at Sysco ( talk) 22:06, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
Hi! I'm looking for editors to review another request of mine for the Chime (company) article. I'm an employee of the company so I don't make direct changes. This time, I've posted suggestions for adding context and history from recent reporting by Forbes. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks! Chime rep DB ( talk) 18:28, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
