Hello! In case you have ping notifications turned off, I'm hoping you can revisit this request to add the subject's current titles to the infobox (perhaps the "title" or "occupation" field). Thanks! Inkian Jason (talk) 14:39, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- Have replied at Talk:Joe Gebbia. Edwardx (talk) 14:46, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for assessing the infobox request. If you have a moment to revisit the talk page, I've submitted a subsequent request to correct the article's text, which currently notes the subject's former role. Thanks! Inkian Jason (talk) 14:43, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on United Kingdom parliamentary second jobs scandal requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. -- DeFacto (talk). 07:25, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

Literally everything I did to his page is backed by one policy or another. Infobox: WP:INFOBOXPURPOSE, Lede: MOS:FIRSTBIO, non-notable family members mentioned by name: WP:BLPNAME. Additionally, your blind revert of all my edits also added back the mention of him being named all-southwest conference when he played at Arkansas. He was never all-Southwest conference. I do not have to discuss BLP policy violations on the talkpage to remove them. Please do not revert these edits again without taking your own advice.--Rockchalk717 16:59, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello Edwardx,
I was wondering if you could help me with some edits for the Charlotte Valuer page. Staying true to neutrality and objectivity; I do have a conflict of interest which is why I can’t make the edits myself.
Her page doesn’t reflect her impressive career in the financial industry as well fighting for equality for all in the boardroom and wider society. She’s just set up a new charity the Institute for Neurodiversity. I noticed you edited her page last year.
Take a look of what I’ve pulled together on my sandbox: [[5]]
and let me know if you have capacity right now to help me edit it.
Cheers!
MIAA
