Contested deletion by the author (who did not add the copyrighted material!!)

[edit]

This article existed fine before today's addition of copyrighted material. The article can simply be reverted to the last revision before the copyrighted material was added, and the page rescued. It is daft that as the author of the page I cannot do this myself. I was not the one that added the copyrighted material, was I? - mspete93 17:16, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Factually incorrect information

[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

Would like to discuss some amends as prior ones were not accepted.


With regards to this statement: Lopez was formerly chairman of Rise Capital, but hasn't been for a number of years, so this must be edited to past tense - a recent Guardian article also stated the company has no active investments in Russia. Source number 11 which is an article from The Moscow Times, where the information about Igor has come from is a dead link - there is no article there. Requesting to remove this information as it has no source, or at least change so it is factually correct in terms of being historic:

"In recent years, López has also taken an interest in Russia and is currently chairman of Rise Capital (Sweden) - a company controlled by Russian businessman Igor A. Snegurov that invests in public-private partnerships with a focus on Russian infrastructure projects, where construction contracts go to Snegurov's own construction group VIS, which often receives its orders or financial backing from Gazprom where Snegurov's friend and colleague Dmitriy Doyev heads Gazprom structures Tsentrremont and Tsentrenergogaz."


"López's companies "appear extensively" in the Panama Papers." - This is also completely alleged, the ICIJ even says on its own sites: "No wrongdoing is being alleged by the ICIJ: 'There are legitimate uses for offshore companies and trusts. We do not intend to suggest or imply that any people, companies or other entities included in the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database have broken the law or otherwise acted improperly.' - Very misleading recent addition to this wikipedia page. Hugh Grosvenor and The Duchy of Lancaster, which invests for HM The Queen, are also listed as using offshore companies. It is not unlawful and again, this is a historic case so feel it needs to be tweaked.


If anyone has anyone has any advice on amending this so that it's actually accurate, that would be great!

Thanks in advance! NJ876 (talk) 13:23, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Amends made

[edit]

Added in new business venture The Lydian Group, as published by Paperjam, Delano and Tech.eu.

Changed copy about currently being chairman of Rise capital and removed info from Moscow Post because link is dead, no article there and Lopez is no longer chairman. A recent guardian article states no current investments in Russia, but as it's a statement, haven't added in for now.

The Guardian article that has been used as a source re the Panama papers is factually incorrect and the ICIJ itself said: "No wrongdoing is being alleged by the ICIJ: 'There are legitimate uses for offshore companies and trusts. We do not intend to suggest or imply that any people, companies or other entities included in the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database have broken the law or otherwise acted improperly.' - Have added in a new source from EuroNews that reflects this.

Have added further information on The Lydian Group, as reported by Paperjam, Delano and Tech.eu. NJ876 (talk) 15:17, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
