Request edit

Hi again, I'm wondering if _INDEX_ template can be implemented to this article so when searching in Google, information from the Wikipedia page feeds into the Ed Bastian Google knowledge panel? Is this something that can be requested? Thanks! I've disclosed my COI above, as well as on my user page. Avgalatl (talk) 15:48, 17 December 2018 (UTC) Avgalatl[reply]

Request edit

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at D. (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.

Hi there, I work at Delta Air Lines and have been charged with helping improve Ed Bastian's Wikipedia page. I've disclosed my COI above, as well as on my user page. I will not be editing the article directly, but will propose suggested content inclusions since the page currently has zero content. @User:AKS.9955 since you created Ed's page, I was wondering if you'd be interested in helping with the edits so there is not a blank page in place? I've crafted suggested draft below for review, based on his official bio. Avgalatl (talk) 21:57, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Avgalatl[reply]
