Hello, I'm Caspar Lee's assistant and we wish to add content to his wiki page.

Add to Career:

Caspar and fellow Youtube Sensation Joe Sugg announced in June of 2018 their new management company called Margravine Management where both will take Director roles to guide the new age of digital talent.

Also in June of 2018, Lee became the Digital Marketing Director of American Freshman Apparel.

Add to Awards and Nominations:

Lee was nominated and won the Global Award for Social Media Superstar.

Add a Philanthropy section:

In 2017 Lee was invited to be an Ambassador for the Queen’s Young leaders program. A role he’s carried through 2018 and continues to be an advocate for the program Lee, having personal experience with Tourette’s, has partnered up with Tourette’s Action to help increase awareness and funding for the syndrome. In 2018, Lee began a scholarship program at his former school in South Africa – Oakhill. In 2016, while on a trip home to South Africa, Lee met an incredible guy living with HIV called Lyoiso through the Queen’s Young Leaders program. In 2018 Lee was able to buy a house for him and his family.

Thank you, Shariag (talk) 09:54, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Please provide reliable sources that clearly support the content you're adding to the article. The awards page is just a gallery, and doesn't explicitly say that the person won the award. The Twitter post isn't a reliable source-- an article or even a press release would be better.

Also, please consult the Manual of Style (specifically the section about tone) and rewrite the promotional language before submitting it in another edit request.

Thank you for disclosing your conflict of interest. If you haven't already, please take a moment to read through Wikipedia's policy on connected contributors. — Newslinger talk 10:03, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for the feedback it was very helpful. I have changed the wording of my previous request to be more in line with tone needed. I have also fleshed out the sources for all the proposed material. Please let me know your thoughts on the correction:
