Request edit on 8 May 2018

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I would like to request the following change: CureVac has entered into a collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company in October 2017. This could be included in the list of partners at the beginning of the entry as well as in the history part. Neutral sources are e.g. https://endpts.com/eli-lilly-is-making-a-1-8b-leap-into-the-mrna-field-targeting-next-gen-cancer-vaccines/ and https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/lilly-curevac-pen-1-8b-mrna-cancer-vaccine-deal Thank you for reviewing, --VerenaLauterbach CureVacAG (talk) 12:49, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reply 08-MAY-2018

"Entering into collaboration" is a vague assertion which leaves out salient details like the purpose for the collaboration, and why. The text may be placed within the article without clarification, however, a vague inline template would be added along with it. Please advise if this is acceptable.
Text within the article was found to be insufficiently paraphrased from the source material, and has been removed, per: WP:CLOSEPARAPHRASE. A listing of the text may be found here.
Additional text was found to be insuffciently paraphrased from the source material. This text was integral to the lead section and the beginning of the main body of text, so it was not removed. A listing of that text may be found here. in lieu of this removal, the close paraphrasing maintenance template was appended to the article.

When ready to proceed with your response to point No. 1 above, kindly change the request edit template to read from ans=yes to ans=no. Thank you! .spintendo⋅⋅) 13:42, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Spintendo,

Thank you for working on the article. Since other collaborations are now no longer included in the history part, Eli Lilly does not have to be included there either. However, it would still make sense in the list of partners at the beginning - would you then still need further details or add the vague inline template if it is just listed? I could provide them, if necessary.

How can I help to improve the article in order to discard the close paraphrasing and verification templates if I am not allowed to work in the article because of my COI? I would be grateful for advice.

You can post specific suggestions here. If you want to add content, propose it here, formatted exactly like you would if you were editing directly in the article, with citations appropriately formatted, etc. It is like submitting a manuscript to a journal - it just happens all in public here on the talk page, instead of through email or the internet.

Thank you, so I suggest to change

Request edit on 17 May 2018

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at A. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

I request the following edit: Please change

In September 2015, CureVac announced it would be opening a United States hub in Cambridge, Massachusetts.[18]

Implemented It was not made clear what the "30 million doses" were of, so that part was omitted. If you clarify what this was, I can add it to the article. .spintendo⋅⋅) 15:50, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, --VerenaLauterbach CureVacAG (talk) 09:26, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Implemented I am working on rewriting the text which needs to be paraphrased, so that the maintenance template may be removed. Expect that shortly. .spintendo⋅⋅) 15:50, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The problematic, insufficiently paraphrased sentences have been addressed (a description of these is in the edit summary) and the Close paraphrase maintenance template has been removed. .spintendo 02:35, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for rewriting the text and removing the template. Unfortunately, the sentence is now a bit misleading (it had already been ambiguous before): What we develop are prophylactic vaccines in the area of infectious diseases (e.g. vaccines against rabies) as well as therapeutic vaccines in the areas oncology (Cancer immunotherapy) and rare diseases (e.g. Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency). I suggest to change the sentence as follows:

The company's focus is on developing prophylactic treatment for diseases of infection, primarily through the use of vaccines, as well as therapeutic treatment for cancer and rare diseases.

Since rare diseases have not yet been part of our research when the named source was published in 2012, this article could be added as source: https://www.thepharmaletter.com/article/new-mrna-partnership-in-rare-diseases
