COI request

I am a former student of Professor Rodrigo Tavares and, in that condition, I have a conflict of interest with regard to him. But I have no personal or professional relations with him (fgvwiki07). (My COI with Rodrigo Tavares derives only from the fact that Im a former student of his. But I have no personal or professional relations with him and all the information contained in the article derives from reliable and accessible sources. After he became a Young Global Leader I decided to assemble information online to create the article).— Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 (talkcontribs) December 29, 2017 14:09 (UTC)

Proposed text

Rodrigo Tavares (Lisbon, December 26, 1978) is a businessman and a scholar. He is the founder and president of the Granito Group, a holding company in the field of sustainable capitalism.[1]

Academia==

Rodrigo Tavares work is focused on studying new forms of political and economic governance. He started his career by assessing the social, economic and security impacts of regional integration and supranational arrangements.[2] He also designed conflict resolution plans for global conflicts.[3] More recently, his research is centered on local governments (cities, states, provinces) and their ability to become global players.[4] He also researched capital markets and their impact on society and the environment.[5] He is one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and paradiplomacy and has been called “one of those rare diplomatic scholars who combine the scientific rigor of an academic and the earnest experience of a foreign policy practitioner.”[6]

Tavares received his Ph.D. in Peace and Development Studies in 2006 from the University of Gothenburg, School of Global Studies. His thesis “Understanding Regional Peace and Security: a New Framework for Analysis” was supervised by Professor Emeritus Björn Hettne and Associate Professor Fredrik Söderbaum.[7] He conducted postdoctoral research at Columbia University's Institute of Latin American Studies.[8]

He was invited by the University of California, Berkeley (2003-2004) and Harvard University, Kennedy School of Government (2014-2015) as a senior visiting scholar.[9]

He also worked at the United Nations University, the UN think-tank, in Belgium and Ethiopia. As a Research Fellow, he coordinated policy-advising work on regional integration, security, and Africa’s development.[10] He is currently an associate professor at Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) in Brazil,[11] and an Associate Research Fellow at the United Nations University (UNU-CRIS) in Belgium.[12]

Granito Group==

The Granito Group is a global holding company devoted to advancing sustainable capitalism. It owns three subsidiaries: the consulting firm Granito & Partners, the boutique investment bank Granito & Capital, and the Impact Economy Foundation, a non-profit think-tank.[13]

The vision to establish Granito came along when Rodrigo Tavares was a Senior Research Fellow at Harvard University and he realized that the bridges between financial markets and society, or between capital and impact, could be stronger and more sophisticated. He first founded Granito & Partners, the consulting firm, in 2015.[14]

Public Sector==

From 2011 to 2014, he served as the Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs of the São Paulo state government. In that period, the Brazilian state received 1,595 foreign delegations – including 22 heads of state and government, organized 230 missions abroad, signed 234 international agreements, managed 150 international cooperation programs and projects, organized 104 international events, and maintained relations with 116 countries.[15]. His term was also marked by the initiative to establish "formal, bilateral and direct" relations with countries such as United States,[16] Canada, United Kingdom[17] or France.[18]

In 2008-2010 he was invited by the UN Secretariat to write Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s annual reports on Africa’s development, presented to the General Assembly.[19] The reports monitored the implementation of various commitments by the international community, identified challenges, and presented the way forward.[20] They have also proposed the establishment of a new permanent United Nations Monitoring Mechanism (UNMM)[21] to be spearheaded by the UN Office of the Special Advisor on Africa (OSAA).

Press==

He is a regular contributor to the World Economic Forum’s Agenda[22] and to Brazilian magazine Época [23].

Awards and Recognitions==

In 2017 he was nominated Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum.[1]

In 2011, he was one of seven people selected by the Government of Québec as Young Leader for his work on foreign affairs.[24]

In 2018 he was selected as StartUp Portugal Ambassador [25] by the Government of Portugal. He was tasked to represent Portuguese interests, programs, and initiatives on innovation and entrepreneurship on a global scale, with support from the Portuguese diplomatic network.

Personal Life==

Tavares was born in Lisbon but grew up in Castelo Branco where he lived until the end of high school.[26] His family is from the Beira Interior Sul region of Portugal.[27] He is married to publisher Mirna Queiroz.

revised proposal

Hi, the 46,8% violation derives almost entirely by similarity in book titles, names of universities, professional positions. Things that you cant change. Two other sentences have been detected but the text in the article cites them between "". In any case, I made changes in the remaining few cases where it was actually possible to write differently. See below. Hope this new version is OK. I have compared sentence by sentence.--— Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 (talkcontribs) 15:13, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

Two notes on the proposal.
First, would you please take the time to format your citations? We generally do not use bare URLs like this - it is unprofessional for one thing, but more importantly if the link ever breaks (and they often do) we have no way to track down the actual citation.
There is a very easy and fast way to do citations, which often also provides a link that allows readers to more easily find the source being cited.
You will notice that when you are in an edit window, that up at the top there is a toolbar. On the right, it says "Cite" and there is a little triangle next to it. If you click the triangle, another menu appears below. On the left side of the new menu bar, you will see "Templates". If you select (for example) "Cite news", you can fill in the url field, and then if you click the little magnifying glass next to the field, the whole thing will auto-fill. Then you click the "insert" button at the bottom, and it will insert a ref. It doesn't always autofill everything, but you can manually enter key fields that it misses (you should always have article title, publication, date, and author). For a website, just the name of the website, the page name, and the date accessed is good enough. If you are citing a book you should give the page number and the key book parameters. You have apparently been to college if you studied under this person; I do not think you would waste anyone's time handing in a paper with crappy citations like this. I think you must understand what a "citation" is in standard academic writing.
It takes about 10 seconds to format a citation that way.
Also if you want to use a reference twice, use the Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).[1] He also designed conflict resolution plans for armed conflicts.[2]

fgvwiki07: African Studies Review. pp. 145–176, Contemporary Politics. pp. 107–127, Asian Journal of Political Science. pp. 276–302. In in the version of the article I can see online, pager numbers show up.

  • Comment: With all due respect, I am not going to read 40 pages of material just to confirm one sentence of text. Kindly provide me with the single page number where this information is located. Spintendo ᔦᔭ 21:44, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Fgvwiki07 The new version brings new articles to illustrate all sentences. To answer your question, if the goal is to show the issues he has been working on, we shouldnt be looking at specific pages in specific articles, but at the articles themselves (their thematic focus).

More recently, his research is centered on local governments (cities, states, provinces) and their ability to become global players.[3]

He is one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and paradiplomacy and has been described as “one of those rare diplomatic scholars who combine the scientific rigor of an academic and the earnest experience of a foreign policy practitioner.[5]

fgvwiki07: I watched a live feed of a talk he gave recently at MIT and he was introduced as "one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and "paradiplomacy". I understand that this has not been reproduced in print, but I would suggest to at least keep the sentence: "“one of those rare diplomatic scholars who combine the scientific rigor of an academic and the earnest experience of a foreign policy practitioner". This is not blunt, vain or self-centered. The sentence points to a specific (and "rare") characteristic in his profile. Its informative. There are not a lot of people who have side-by-side and highly accomplished careers as practitioners and scholars. Its a not a stint or moonlighting, its two solid careers in paralel. The quote highlights this.

Fgvwiki07 The new version deletes the sentence "one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security and "paradiplomacy".

fgvwiki07: if you wish not to cite the various Rodrigo Tavares bio's online, here's the link to the university's website demonstrating that he has got a Ph.D. in Peace and Development Studies. https://gupea.ub.gu.se/handle/2077/16982


His thesis “Understanding Regional Peace and Security: a New Framework for Analysis” was supervised by Professor Emeritus Björn Hettne and Associate Professor Fredrik Söderbaum.[6]
 Implemented This claim is acceptable, but works much better if you mention the article and its topic rather than the people who supervised it. Because this publication was peer reviewed, it may use itself as the source. This claim has been implemented into the article (with the extraneous information regarding the supervisors removed) and with proper attribution for a quote taken from its abstract.

fgvwiki07: OK, thanks Fgvwiki07 The new version follows your guidelines.

He conducted postdoctoral research at Columbia University's Institute of Latin American Studies.[7] He was invited by the University of California, Berkeley (2003-2004) and Harvard University, Kennedy School of Government (2014-2015) as a senior visiting scholar.[8]

fgvwiki07: his associations to Berkeley and Harvard are mentioned in various reliable bios online. They are also on their book covers. I found the association to Harvard at a Harvard website highlighting a talk he gave at the university: https://www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/taubman/news-events/past-events (just search his name). If you wish I could try to reach out to Rodrigo Tavares and bluntly ask him for a proof that he was a research fellow at Berkeley!

Fgvwiki07 the new version includes the Harvard link.

He also worked at the United Nations University, the UN think-tank, in Belgium and Ethiopia.

fgvwiki07: this is also mentioned in several reliable bios online. One of the bios is from the United Nations University itself. So the information is legit. http://cris.unu.edu/rodrigo-tavares

  • Comment: The unu.edu site states in its terms of use: The views that are expressed by individual contributors do not represent an official view of the United Nations University. ou agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with the use of any content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of such content.

What this means is that his Bio at that website is not the final arbiter of what should and shouldn't be taken as fact.

Fgvwiki07 I have mantained this. If the United Nations University website says that Tavares works there and even publishes his bio online, I believe that is a good proof. I could in fact not think of anything stronger.

As a Research Fellow, he coordinated policy-advising work on regional integration, security, and Africa’s development.[9] He is currently an associate professor at Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) in Brazil,[10] and an Associate Research Fellow at the United Nations University (UNU-CRIS) in Belgium.[11]

Fgvwiki07 I kept this information as it is backed by the websites of the institutions refered to.

fgvwiki07: it would look much better, for wikipedia readers, to have publications in a segment of its own! I have actually just added 4 books, but the list of publications is much larger. I dont think it would be interesting to add ALL of them, but I would like to suggest you to main the Publications segment as more people could directly add a few more publications if they see fit.

Granito Group

The Granito Group is a holding company in the field of sustainable capitalism. It owns three subsidiaries: the consulting firm Granito & Partners, the boutique investment bank Granito & Capital, and the Impact Economy Foundation, a non-profit think-tank.[12]

  • Comment: This source has been translated. While it does mention the proposed function of Granito as a holding company — as well as mentioning "three subsidiaries" — it does not mention them by name, nor does it confirm the holding group as yet realized.Spintendo ᔦᔭ 23:25, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: here is simple. Just go to www.granito.group and you will see the subsidiaries, their names, a bunch of publications on them and some samples of the companies' work.


The vision to establish Granito came along when Rodrigo Tavares was a Senior Research Fellow at Harvard University and he realized that the bridges between financial markets and society, or between capital and impact, could be stronger and more sophisticated.

fgvwiki07: I find this very informative. Wikipedia readers have the right to know how the Granito Group came about. And the full explanation is here, in a interview he gave to the Portuguese press. https://www.dn.pt/dinheiro/interior/sou-um-raciocinador-gosto-de-conectar-pontas-soltas-5734809.html

Fgvwiki07 OK, I deleted this part per your guidelines.

Public Sector

From 2011 to 2014, he served as the Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs of the São Paulo state government.

fgvwiki07: there are endless references to his work as Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs. But here you can find a publication available in the state government official website. www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf. Please see page 5.

Fgvwiki07 OK, understood. The new version has a slightly different text. Just "Head of the Office of Foreign Affairs" is the official title and that cannot be changed.


In that period, the Brazilian state received 1,595 foreign delegations – including 22 heads of state and government, organized 230 missions abroad, signed 234 international agreements, managed 150 international cooperation programs and projects, organized 104 international events, and maintained relations with 116 countries.[14]

fgvwiki07: www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf. Please see pages 67, 49, 63.

no Declined The pages 49, 63, and 67 do not mention Mr. Tavares. Spintendo ᔦᔭ 21:44, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Fgvwiki07 Im truly sorry, but that is not correct. The publication www.saopauloglobal.sp.gov.br/relacoes_inter/publica/Portifolio_AEAI-2011-2015_ingles.pdf is an official review of the foreign affairs work of the state government of sao paulo between 2011 and 2014. On page 5, you can see Rodrigo as the leader of that work.


His term was also marked by the initiative to establish "formal, bilateral and direct" relations with countries such as United States,[15] Canada, United Kingdom[16] or and France.[17]

  • Comment: This statement is accurate that bilateral relations were sought between the USA and the Sao Paulo state government, but the fact that it was with the Sao Paulo state government is a distinction that deserves to be highlighted, it being the most significant part of this sentence. The agreement with the UK is mentioned but the agreement with Canada had not taken place at the time of this reference being published. Spintendo ᔦᔭ 18:44, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: This information is contained in his book Paradiplomacy, pages 93, 94, 95. Shall I fotograph the pages and send them to you? Agreements with United States, Canada, UK and France have been signed and executed.

Fgvwiki07 I have added the book in the references to make it clear.


He was selected by the UN Secretariat to write Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s reports on Africa’s development (2008-2010).[18] Presented to the General Assembly, they (those reports) monitored the implementation of various commitments by the international community, identified challenges, and presented the way forward.[19]

  • Comment: The problem with this passage is that these two statements are too causally–linked to survive being split by two different references. The only reference given for the first half of this passage — that the subject wrote these reports — is the subject himself. While the UN reference from the second half of the passage does corroborate what the reports did, it pointedly does not corroborate who wrote them. By giving the subject's own website as a confirmation, you are attempting to fit through the backdoor what won't fit through the front. For this entire passage to survive in the article it must be under one reference — and that reference must come from the UN alone.Spintendo ᔦᔭ 05:47, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: The article says explicity that he wrote UN Secretary General reports

Fgvwiki07 I have deleted this part.

, so the documents are naturally signed by the UNSG, not by him. He would be impeded from signining the documents. But there are a few ways of demonstrating that the information is legit: 1. its stated on a UN website. http://cris.unu.edu/rodrigo-tavares. Its a UN source stating that he wrote the reports. 2. In this interview, the interviewer asked Rodrigo about his role as Ban Ki Moon report writer: http://expresso.sapo.pt/economia/2017-04-22-Rodrigo-Tavares-Tive-a-sorte-de-ter-estado-rodeado-de-pessoas-exemplares. 3- I can bluntly reach out to Rodrigo and ask for a proof of this.

They have also proposed the establishment of a new permanent United Nations Monitoring Mechanism (UNMM) to be spearheaded by the UN Office of the Special Advisor on Africa (OSAA).[20]

Press

He writes regularly to the World Economic Forum’s Agenda[21] and to Brazilian newsmagazine Época.[22]



Awards and Recognitions

In 2017 he was nominated Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum.[23]

In 2011, he was nominated Young Leader by the Government of Québec for his work on foreign affairs.[24]

fgvwiki07: the info is in various bios of Rodrigo online. The program is this one: http://www.missionleadership.ca/index.php?sec=40. If you believe the info in the wikipedia article is too close from Rodrigo's bios online, I suggest the following sentence: "In 2011, he was selected as Young Leader (Jeune Leader) by the Ministry of International Relations of Québec"

 Implemented Spintendo ᔦᔭ 21:44, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Fgvwiki07 it was implemented wrongly, Im afraid. The text repeats itself (2 mentions to the same award) and deletes the WEF reference. I have corrected this.

Personal Life

Tavares was born in Lisbon but grew up in Castelo Branco where he lived until the end of high school.[25] His family is from the Beira Interior Sul region of Portugal.[26] He is married to publisher Mirna Queiroz.

fgvwiki07: oh goddess, it was accessible when I first read it. But you can still read the sentence underneath his picture stating that he lived in Castelo Branco until the end of high school. And in this interview he says "Granito é a rocha mais comum na região de onde eu sou oriundo em Portugal, que é a região da Beira Baixa", which can be translated as "Granite is the most common rock in the region where Im from in Portugal, the Beira Baixa region". FYI, Beira Baixa is an old term, the new updated name for the region is Beira Interior Sul. https://www.dn.pt/dinheiro/interior/sou-um-raciocinador-gosto-de-conectar-pontas-soltas-5734809.html

The information on his wife I found in his and her facebook pages. Mirna Queiroz is a public figure in Brazil and has a wikipedia page in Portuguese.

Fgvwiki07 I have deleted the section on this private life

Fgvwiki07 I hope the version I posted on Talk pages covers all your issues. I understand that you are being formidably demanding as Im a former student and I have a COI status. I have read other wiki bios of other Young Global Leaders and the level of demand is much, much lower (you would have vetoed most of the content!!:)_), but Im working very hard to attend all your demands. If you agree with the version on talk pages - which is far from my original version but I believe attends 100% of the issues raised - could you please post it online?

Fgvwiki07 A final word to say that it is still not clear for me why is it possible that an infinite and heavy due diligence is carried out on all I write, if at the end it is simply possible to have someone else coming in and writing false statements with no references, no backing, no sources (such as saying he is a diplomat or a journalist). If you could help the article be protected against false statements, I would appreciate! —Preceding undated comment added 10:52, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks you for formatting the citations, but there are still a few bareURLs in there. I also asked you to study the existing article to learn how to use a source more than once using "ref name". You are still duplicating sources. If you look at it you will see that full reference is given once like this:
<ref name=RTP>{{cite news|title=Rodrigo Tavares nomeado Jovem Líder Global pelo Fórum Económico Mundial|url=https://www.rtp.pt/noticias/economia/portugues-rodrigo-tavares-nomeado-jovem-lider-global-pelo-forum-economico-mundial_n988923|work=RTP, Rádio e Televisão de Portugal|date=15 March 2017|language=pt}}</ref>
and other instances are created like this:
<ref name=RTP/>
with slash after the name and before the closing bracket.
There is also still unsourced (not to mention disgustingly promotional) content like "He is one of the world’s most cited scholars in regional security". The content about his wife is also unsourced.
Please go through and remove EVERYTHING that is not directly supported by its source.
Please do not use words like "recently" or "currently". See WP:RELTIME. Jytdog (talk) 23:01, 29 December 2017 (UTC)


Please note — text which is stricken out cannot be used until remedied. Text which is underlined may be used if the appropriate remedy below is applied:
  1. A translation of the source to assist in verification (a Google translation is sufficient, with the relevant passages from the source material appended to your proposal on this talk page — I am willing to work with you on this point to translate the material quickly); or another source in English
  2. Removal of WP:PEACOCK tone
  3. References obtained from the relevant parties, in this case, Berkeley and HKS.
My colleague Jytdog's concerns listed above must be addressed as well.

fgvwiki07: I truly appreciate your help in editing the article. Please let me know if we are ready to get it online. I believe your colleague Jytdog' comments have also been addressed in the course of our recent edits.

I have just noticed that the article was edited today by someone else stating that Rodrigo Tavares is a journalist! I have painfully spent many many hours getting the most precise information on Rodrigo Tavares to wikipedia adminitrators. How is it possible that someone just pops in and writes that he is a journalist?! It also gives a lot of importance to a 2008 article that, I believe, doesnt really weight much in his list of publications! How could we be protected against similar false contributions??

 Fixed The description of journalist has been removed. May I also remind you to please always sign your posts with four tildes → ~~~~. Regards, Spintendo ᔦᔭ 21:59, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

fgvwiki07: I believe several points that have been aproved are not yet in the document and a handful of others have been inserted but are utterly incorrect, if I may be frank. This latest version says he is a diplomat and that he has worked in several media outlets. May I ask you where does this information come from? Where are the sources? Ill work on a revised version, including all approved points and addressing your latest issues and submit it to you in the coming hours. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fgvwiki07 (talkcontribs) 23:13, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
