don't agree - any way should not be on this page if you wish to create a page do so as "Schillings (Lawyers). Codf1977 (talk) 02:54, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Differentiating current and former partners

The current notable partners section does not differentiate between current and former partners, which we believe it should.

The current partners are:

- Keith Schilling / Rod Christie-Miller / Rachel Atkins / Jenny Afia / Chris Scott / Davina Katz (nee Hay)

- Christopher Mills is COO and the firm’s first non-legal partner. http://www.legalfutures.co.uk/latest-news/from-celebrity-lawyers-reputation-defence-business-abs-completes-transformation

The former partners are:

- John Kelly, who joined Harbottle & Lewis in 2013. http://www.thelawyer.com/news/practice-areas/media-entertainment-and-sport-news/schillings-sports-star-john-kelly-quits-for-harbottle-and-lewis/3002949.article

- Simon Smith, who left Schillings in 2010. http://www.psb-law.co.uk/pagess/member-2/— Preceding unsigned comment added by Schillings (talk • contribs) 16:51, 16 March 2015‎ (UTC)

Thanks for pointing this out. It is of course right, as the Schillings people page confirms.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 18:48, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Notable partners

Jenny Afia and Davina Katz have been removed on the basis of 'not sufficiently notable...; or unreferenced'. Here are some facts on their cases (listed in notable cases section) and awards that we think warrant Jenny and Davina's inclusion on the page:

- Jenny Afia http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-28439754 (a Link to Jenny's work for Adele / Adele's son) http://www.spearswms.com/storefronts/jenny-afia-schillings/#.Ve1wbrL4_cs (Spear's 500 Index; also detailing Ned RocknRoll work) http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/07/28/digital-rights-children_n_7884720.html (Work for iRights - project led by Barrenness Kidron in empowering children and young people in their use of the Internet)

- Davina Katz http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/4a278a4e-7adc-11e4-b630-00144feabdc0.html (Davina acted for Dale Vince OBE in his appeal to strike out his ex-wife’s financial claim – issued 27 years after their separation) http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/Fam/2015/887.html (Davina acted for the applicant wife in a landmark case in which the wife was transferred properties in London and Cannes worth £8.8m, despite her husband divorcing her in his native Saudi Arabi) http://www.spearswms.com/storefronts/davina-katz-schillings-family/ (Spear's 500 Index)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Sam Billett at Schillings (talk • contribs) 11:41, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

I've had a look at this and the partners mentioned were removed in this edit on 3 July 2015. Notability can be subjective, and there wasn't any obvious reason for removing these two partners. However, Wikipedia is not LinkedIn and there is no need or guarantee to mention all of the partners at the firm. Another point to bear in mind is WP:PEACOCK, which is information designed to portray people or events in a favourable light. I'm a bit busy at the moment, but may put back these two partners in a slightly shorter form.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 20:16, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Number of employees

Schillings currently employs thirty three lawyers, risk managers and IT security consultants. https://www.schillings.co.uk/our-people At present, this is detailed as 'about fifteen' in the opening paragraph and believe this should be updated.

Close connection

As already has been discussed, User:Deb has been engaged in an editing war with me, placing COI notices on all my recent Ly created articles as well as my latest edits. The fact that he is engaged in an edit war with me on various other pages is evident. Some might think he desires to place COI on all pages that I recently created might be motivated by that as he never gave his reasons for doing so. These notices should be removed accordingly.--Wikirecontributer47 (talk)

You previously admitted to being employed by a legal firm and you have deleted many warnings from your talk page. You have used multiple names, including "Sarah", "Anna" and "Alex". It's clear that you are continuing to edit articles about barristers and legal firms who may be rivals of your employer. In some cases you have made unexplained deletions. I am proposing that you agree to a voluntary topic ban and do not edit any further articles about barristers or legal firms. If you continue to do so, I will block you for disruptive editing.
