January 2022

Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Bar Refaeli, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Meters (talk) 06:32, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

added citations, thanks! Ptrnext (talk) 06:48, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You made an edit on Klarna adding that Michael Moritz is chairman, but did not support it with a reference. Could you add the reference? Thanks. TylerBurden (talk) 13:29, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @TylerBurden, thanks for the nudge. The existing annual report citing the financials in the infobox contained it, but I missed adding ref name tag while making my change. I've added an additional reference. Ptrnext (talk) 14:09, 14 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stop ruining my edits!

Your reversal of my edits is non-constructive and obnoxious. TD Bank Group is the trade name for Toronto-Dominion Bank, PERIOD. Babesonion (talk) 02:10, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Which edit? As long as you post correct information, no one is going to reverse them.

btw, the page move from TD Bank Group back to Toronto-Dominion Bank was done by User:Joeyconnick and I'm glad they did that, but looks like you have reversed it again, sigh. Ptrnext (talk) 02:23, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi... yes, please gain consensus on the Talk page if you want to attempt to move this long-stable page. The trade name has NO BEARING given WP:CRITERIA, specifically WP:COMMONNAME. —Joeyconnick (talk) 04:25, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

LendingClub History request help

Hi, User:Ptrnext! I recently posted an edit request to the LendingClub Talk page where I proposed some significant additions to the current article's outdated History section. I was wondering, since you handled the infobox updates for the LC page, if you had any interest in reviewing that request, which you can find using this link. No worries if not, but I thought I would drop by and check. Thanks for all the help you've already provided. Talk soon, I hope! EFlynn at LendingClub (talk) 17:32, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello EFlynn at LendingClub, thanks for checking. Unfortunately, I'll have to pass this one. Best, Ptrnext (talk) 17:42, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

44th Chess Olympiad !?

Hi User:Ptrnext. You have erroneously reverted the name Mamallapuram to 'Mahabalipuram' in the above named article. I've only changed the name to reflect the official usage. Even government sources use only "Mamallapuram".

ref: https://twitter.com/kryes/status/1530576739436568577?s=20&t=Cd_K7Ja-hWXJR9Hh81xKjw MS2P (talk) 07:59, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @MS2P: Thanks for checking. While Mamallapuram is the official name, Mahabalipuram is the WP:COMMONNAME and is used in the citations mentioned in the article. Ptrnext (talk) 08:06, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See all the Olympics event. See the latest one in Tokyo. They have Cauldron and all in Infobox. This is the first time it has happened in Chess Olympiad so ofc it will be mentioned. And there is no budget mentioned in any similar Sports event. Please Research. JokerDurden (talk) 08:49, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello JokerDurden, contrary to what you just said, "Torch relay starter" is not in the Tokyo Olympics infobox. Considering this event is using a custom infobox, there isn't any rigidity as to what goes into the infobox. This article is not just for folks who are familiar or understand chess, so budget / prize money provides a quick insight (which is what the infobox is for) about the event and the scale of it. In my opinion, it is a more meaningful parameter than knowing who started the torch relay or lit the cauldron.

In any case, I will not argue further as the change has been reverted by another editor as well — the editor who creates other chess event articles (so not surprised they want to keep it the same way). Thanks Ptrnext (talk) 03:10, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nationwide Building Society

Hi @Ptrnext, Firstly thank you for review the Society's page I have made the updates as you have requested. If you could take a look it would be very much appreciated as there are few more edits I will need to make, after this initial one. Thank you again CJK1979 (talk) 10:37, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @CJK1979, thanks for the follow-up. I've completed your request. Let me know if that works for you. Best, Ptrnext (talk) 04:29, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A massive thank you @Ptrnext! Such a great help! If it's ok with you I will let you know when I have made further suggested edits, to ensure the page is factually correct.CJK1979 (talk) 10:17, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Ptrnext I have made some additional suggestions to the History section. If you would take a look that would be amazing. Thank you in advance. CJK1979 (talk) 13:13, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

90min check in

Hi Ptrnext, I just wanted to see if you had seen my reply on the 90min page. Please let me know what you think! M at MinuteMedia (talk) 16:42, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see now another editor has responded. Nevermind! Thanks for reviewing the request though! M at MinuteMedia (talk) 16:59, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @M at MinuteMedia, thanks for the follow-up. I tend to agree with the other editor on the outcome of the request. If you have an update to that, feel free to re-open the request. Best, Ptrnext (talk) 04:31, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will do, thanks again! M at MinuteMedia (talk) 21:27, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Additions to Citadel Securities

Hi there Ptrnext. I noticed that you recently made some edits to the Citadel Securities Wiki, and I am hoping you would like to take a look at an edit request I posted on the Talk page a few days ago. The request is to add a few sentences to update the article, with sources. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks. Cduffymul (talk) 14:29, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Cduffymul: I've implemented them. Best, Ptrnext (talk) 05:09, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Editor's Barnstar
	Thank you so much for your support CJK1979 (talk) 10:20, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for implementing my edit request. I appreciate the work you do to keep Wikipedia such a useful resource. Cduffymul (talk) 14:39, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rebekah Neumann

Hi Ptrnext. I see that you edited Rebekah Neumann's page back in April. Any chance you would be willing to examine an edit request I posted on Talk:Rebekah Neumann to remove a recently added sentence which I believe is strikingly not NPOV? My explanation supporting the removal of the sentence is on the edit request. Thanks for your help. Carlos for Neumann (talk) 11:25, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Carlos for Neumann, I tend to agree with you. The phrasing is questionable and even with the additional source, I don't see how "key role" is warranted. I stay away from contentious edits such as these, but I'll see if I can go through the sources thoroughly and have any other inputs.

I'm also confused why that editor also added "..Generation Hustle, which profiles American scammers,.." in her article when the documentary, though it did talk about her and had her archival footage (in all < 5 mins), was all about Adam. Ptrnext (talk) 05:19, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ptrnext. I am following up with you concerning the above comments you made about the non-NPOV nature of some of the content on Rebekah Neumann's page. I wonder if you would mind taking a look and seeing if you can please improve the extremely negative language used to describe Rebekah in the BLP. Further, the language surrounding Generation Hustle seems a bit excessive on Adam Neumann's page as well. While Vanity Fair does describe the show using the "scammer" language, Generation Hustle and HBO Max themselves later changed their self-descriptions, per Deadline, Law & Crime, and The Verge. I suggest removing the phrase "which profiles American scammers" from the sentence, as it implies that some kind of "scam" or "crime" was committed while the sources state that this is completely false.

Edit request assistance

Hello! I've submitted a series of single-sentence updates for the WiTricity article on the company's behalf (which I've fully disclosed at Talk:WiTricity). Unfortunately, I've struggled to get editor feedback despite using Template:Request edit. I noticed you have answered similar edit requests for other articles and wondered if you might be willing to take a look at the suggested improvements I've proposed and update the article appropriately. If you are not interested, I will continue to seek editor assistance at various WikiProjects and similar help pages.

Thanks for your consideration, Inkian Jason (talk) 15:03, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Inkian Jason, thanks for following the COI procedure and for your patience. I will look into implementing some of them. Thanks, Ptrnext (talk) 05:07, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking a look when you have a moment. Much appreciated, Inkian Jason (talk) 14:19, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Inkian Jason: After looking closer into the requests, here are my comments:

#1: agree with the other editor's comment, especially considering it wasn't an award, but an 'honorable mention'.

#3: this is not notable enough and I wouldn't consider the two sources as WP:RS

#4: this is ok, but I don't think listing every car/model that is supported to be listed in the article (unless something about it warrants it)

#5: I want to add this, but I couldn't find an independent source that can verify it

#6: this should be ok with some trimming on Wiferion (but again, it may not be the best idea to be listing all the companies it licenses its tech to)

Best, Ptrnext (talk) 03:07, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for responding! Regarding #3, may I ask why you would not consider the two sources reliable? Both are industry publications with editorial staff and I don't think the claim is particularly contentious. As for #4, my goal is simply to propose claims which demonstrate how the technology is being used within the car industry over time, in line with the article's existing text. I'm open to your preferred wording for #6. Are you willing to add these responses to the article's Talk page and close out the requests appropriately? If you prefer to leave them open for others to review, I understand. Thanks again for taking time to review these requests! Inkian Jason (talk) 16:17, 22 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jason, my concern with #3 is more that *I'm* not familiar about either publication's reputation for accuracy, whether they issue corrections and whether they disclose COI for articles that would warrant one. So, I'm going to leave them open for others. Thanks, Ptrnext (talk) 04:14, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

TechnologyOne COI edit requests

Hi! I'm reaching out because I saw you recently made some edits to TechnologyOne. If you're interested in helping improve the article further, I've posted some COI edit requests at Talk:TechnologyOne. These requests have been open since February, so I'm reaching out to anyone I think might be interested in taking a look. Even a review of just a few items would be super helpful. Thanks for reading. Mary Gaulke (talk) 14:51, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @MaryGaulke, I did update the infobox earlier with your proposed changes. I'll try looking into the other – some of them seem to have marketing terms/promo'ish tones, which I will likely skip. Thanks, Ptrnext (talk) 05:01, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I sincerely appreciate any feedback. Thanks again for your time. Mary Gaulke (talk) 20:46, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support with COI editing

CJK1979 (talk) 14:20, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your support on the Nationwide Building Society page. I have the citations for the bits you have suggested, however what I am struggling with is trying to change the colour of the font as you suggested and use strikethrough for the the suggested deletions. I don't suppose you could point me in the right direction. Thank you as ever! CJK1979 (talk) 14:20, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @CJK1979, you can try using these templates:

{{Font color|green|text to add...}} produces text to add...

{{Font color|red|text to remove...}} produces text to remove...

{{strikethrough|text to remove...}} produces ~~text to remove...~~

For highlighting and other markup, you can refer to the documentation at {{Font color}}

Let me know if there's anything else. Thanks, Ptrnext (talk) 04:56, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there @Ptrnext. I have made the amends in the suggested format. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you so much CJK1979 (talk) 12:24, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

New request for Kosmos Energy

Hello, Ptrnext. Thomas Kosmos Energy here. If you are still interested in reviewing edit requests about Kosmos, you can see my latest request at Talk:Kosmos Energy. Thank you for considering. TGKosmos (talk) 16:47, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @TGKosmos, I'm not familiar with some of those sources (Energy Voice, Africa Oil Week), so I'd let someone else take a look. If you can provide other sources like this or this (the former is an older one, so can't use it for your proposed changed), I can look further into this. Thanks, Ptrnext (talk) 23:21, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ptrnext. Let me see what I can find. I'll ping you if I can find other sources similar to what you've shared here. TGKosmos (talk) 19:42, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ptrnext. I was looking around and one problem is that the coverage of these topics in more mainstream publications can be a little inconsistent. What are your thoughts on using Kosmos Energy's annual report for basic facts?

At Wikipedia:No original research, the section Primary, secondary and tertiary sources reads: "A primary source may be used on Wikipedia only to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge. For example, an article about a musician may cite discographies and track listings published by the record label, and an article about a novel may cite passages to describe the plot, but any interpretation needs a secondary source." That seems like it may apply here when referring to statements of fact, such as the areas Kosmos Energy operates. What do you think? If you agree, I can update my latest request using the annual report and some other independent sources if possible. TGKosmos (talk) 19:34, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

OmniVision Technologies is now OMNIVISION

HI Ptrnext - I see you've recently made edits to the OmniVision Technologies page. I recently made a request on the talk page to make some changes. Full disclosure, they are a client of my employer, Kiterocket, and so I can't make the edits myself, but I did disclose that on the talk page and requested these edits.

Talk:OmniVision Technologies

Most importantly, the company has rebranded to OMNIVISION and needs a new page, as I understand it. Please let me know what edits you can make. StellaBean (talk) 20:19, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WorldQuant changes

Hi Ptrnext! I have submitted a request on the Talk page of an article you have edited recently, WorldQuant. I know the rule with edit requests is to wait patiently, but as it has been over a month I thought it could be worth reaching out to someone who understands what the page is about and see if I could get some feedback. If you could take a look at the suggestions I’ve made I’d be really grateful, and please let me know if there’s anything I can improve. Yuccata86 (talk) 17:21, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have tidied my request a bit to make it easier to read.Yuccata86 (talk) 14:38, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
