Proposed Addition to Recent History

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at P. (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 believe this below proposed edit will also add to the objective understanding and knowledge of Weber Shandwick, making the article more informative and encyclopedic.

Andy Polansky was named Weber Shandwick CEO in November 2012.

Hi Ljruth. I've written a bunch of our GA articles on PR orgs and History of public relations, etc. so I am probably the best person to answer this one. "Award-winning" is obviously not language that contributes to the "objective understanding" of the company, but I will add the rest. You may also want to take a look at Template:Cite news to make it easier for us in the future. CorporateM (Talk) 03:55, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The founding date displayed in the box on the upper right-hand side of the page is incorrect. It says January 2001 when it should be July 10, 2001, confirmed in this article from The Holmes Report ^[1]. Wanted to request our profile be updated to reflect the correct date.
