Hi all! On behalf of Primerica, I’ve started a discussion [[[[Talk:Primerica#Discussion_about_undue_weight_of_minority_viewpoint]] ]] about a topic that’s grown to be controversial on the page and may interest members of this group. The page could really benefit from the opinion of experienced, neutral editors. (I don’t make edits because of my COI) Could anyone here weigh in?

== Brian Chesky request == |

This was in article space for a month and a half before being redirected to [[Temporary work]] for a year and a half and [[gig worker]] for 4 years. Since the gig economy is composed of corporate entities, gig workers and customers, we need to distinguish this article from gig workers. This will appear on the [[main page]] in a couple of weeks or months in the [[WP:DYK]] section. Please help beef it up.-[[User:TonyTheTiger|TonyTheTiger]] <small>([[User talk:TonyTheTiger|T]] / [[Special:Contributions/TonyTheTiger|C]] / [[WP:FOUR]] / [[WP:CHICAGO]] / [[WP:WAWARD]])</small> 04:39, 8 December 2023 (UTC) |

Hello everyone! I would like your input on a discussion at [[Talk:Criticism of the Walt Disney Company#Splitting off content to Criticism of Walt Disney Animation Studios]] about whether to split off content from five sub-sections about [[Walt Disney Animation Studios]] to the [[Criticism of Walt Disney Animation Studios]], in order to ensure that the page complies with [[WP:SIZESPLIT]]. Consensus in this discussion is important to determine whether such a this split is warranted or not. Thanks and I hope to see your comments.

Hello! I'm visiting this WikiProject on behalf of my employer, the polling and political consulting firm Global Strategy Group. I recently placed an edit request on the GSG Talk page, which you can view by [[Talk:Global_Strategy_Group#Proposing_revisions_to_Amazon_subsection|following this link]]. The request concerns some contextual additions I've proposed to the article's '''Amazon''' subsection. If that sounds interesting to anyone at this WP, please use that link and let me know what you think on the GSG Talk page.

== Sam Yagan edit request == |

I have created [[Sean Jackson (basketball)]]. I have found a 2010 non-[[WP:RS]] that states: "he was director and analyst with SunTrust Equitable and a decade ago (2000) he published the securities industries' first comprehensive research piece on Internet security. He several times won The Wall Street Journal's Best of the Street award, and was repeatedly highly ranked among software-sector analysts." Does anyone here know how to document this content from a [[WP:RS]]. Please comment at [[Talk:Sean Jackson (basketball)#Non-RS content]] if you do.-[[User:TonyTheTiger|TonyTheTiger]] <small>([[User talk:TonyTheTiger|T]] / [[Special:Contributions/TonyTheTiger|C]] / [[WP:FOUR]] / [[WP:CHICAGO]] / [[WP:WAWARD]])</small> 12:37, 3 February 2024 (UTC) |

Hello to all, |

I have an open request that I thought editors here on WikiProject Business might be interested in reviewing. The open request is to update the article on OKCupid co-founder Sam Yagan at [[Talk:Sam_Yagan#Request_to_add_Corazon_Capital_subsection]]. Specifically, it is to add a subsection on his newest venture Corazon Capital. I made this request on behalf of Yagan through my work at Corazon Capital. Thank you for considering.

== Climate action investment networks in the news, but not in Wikipedia == |
|||
I posted a detailed request at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Climate Change#Climate action investing articles|WikiProject Climate Change talk]] (with references included). |
|||
House Republicans are going hammer-and-tong against climate change action investing, releasing a subcommittee report accusing several of the organized investor groups of collusion and anti-trust violations. This includes some of the biggest investment entities in the world, some of which have been persuaded by political pressures to withdraw. |
|||
But these climate action investment networks, which apparently have become a BFD, are not well covered in Wikipedia. Climate Action 100+, the main organization IDed by the House subcommittee, has no Wikipedia mention. The [[Ceres (organization)|Ceres]] organization, an older player which helps run Climate Action 100+, seems to be way out of date in this respect. |
|||
I'm not equipped to handle these changes. Please see [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Climate Change#Climate action investing articles]] for more information. I'm hoping there are WikiProject Business editors who are interested and better able. -- [[User:M.boli|M.boli]] ([[User talk:M.boli|talk]]) 14:33, 13 June 2024 (UTC) |

I don't edit in this area, but to me it would make sense to combine efforts and merge these projects, reducing duplicated work in tagging articles and other maintenance tasks, and driving activity towards a single talk page. The active projects could be retained as task forces of the new project for more focused work, if desired. If there is interest, the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Guide/Merging WikiProjects|process is quite straightforward]] and we have recently done something similar with history projects that went well. There would just need to be a consensus amongst members of the affected projects here, as well as a decision on which projects (if any) to retain as task forces.

Climate action investment networks in the news, but not in Wikipedia
I posted a detailed request at WikiProject Climate Change talk (with references included).
House Republicans are going hammer-and-tong against climate change action investing, releasing a subcommittee report accusing several of the organized investor groups of collusion and anti-trust violations. This includes some of the biggest investment entities in the world, some of which have been persuaded by political pressures to withdraw.
But these climate action investment networks, which apparently have become a BFD, are not well covered in Wikipedia. Climate Action 100+, the main organization IDed by the House subcommittee, has no Wikipedia mention. The Ceres organization, an older player which helps run Climate Action 100+, seems to be way out of date in this respect.
