Please remove the unsourced content. Everything must be sourced and there should be a minimum of non-independent sourcing. Do not write what you know. Forget what you know.
Please never ask me again to review a draft that has any unsourced content in it. Volunteer time is the life blood of Wikipedia and if you don't respect that, you are going to start hitting walls and people will just start ignoring you.
An easy trick to avoid editing promotionally is to use no adjectives or adverbs. None. Try it!
When you write things like the "first" please be very very sure that this is accurate. Jytdog ( talk) 20:15, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
Hi Jytdog: I did not see this, but thank you for pointing it out and I will get to work on it. Appreciate the clear guidelines and will adhere to those. -Wes Wconard1965 ( talk) 12:21, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi Jytdog: Thanks for your note. I am going to work on this over the weekend while consulting "How" to get at the points you raise. To be clear, what I meant by (WHAT CAN WE FILL IN HERE) is where can we find a source that addresses this issue? This all took place a long time ago, so it can be challenging to find sources (for instance finding source material about why 454 ended up being subsidiary has been fruitless). But your note helped me understand the summarizing idea, and I think the current rewrite of that section (sourcing a Forbes profile) is more balanced and will help teach people about the events Rothberg was a part of at that time, as you suggested. I will go through the rest with "How" and I think we'll have a much better product. Enjoy your 4th! -W
