COI editing and "go ahead"[edit]

Hi! I saw that you made some edits to Simon Gaskell after receiving a go-ahead on the talk page for one of your edit request. However, it appears that you also implemented the second request (here); in this specific case, that's fine because the edit itself is alright, but be aware that it's technically not allowed. When you receive a "go ahead" notice for a COI edit request, you should implement the edit exactly as stated in the request, without any changes beyond technical implementation or spelling. Many editors are very careful when dealing with COI editors, and for good reason. All the more important that you do everything "by the book", even in the case of small edits like this one.
