This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of AltSchool, I'd like to revise the key people section as well as the "Series B" section, which mention Coddy Johnson, who is no longer with AltSchool. [1] [2]
I'd like to replace Johnson in the key people section of the infobox with Devin Vodicka (Chief Impact Officer). [1] [2]
In addition, I'd like to either remove the Johnson sentence from the "Series B" section or revise the sentence to note his tenure in addition to adding Devin Vodicka and Ben Kornell.

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of AltSchool, I'd like to make the following revisions to this article.
Add to end of the lead section:
Add to the Schools section after the "In October 2016..." sentence:
Also in the Schools section, correct sentence that begins with "In October 2017..." According to the article, a single school opened in Union Square in fall of 2017, not October when the article was published. To be more clear, the sentence should say:
Also in the Schools section, the sentence that begins with "In November 2017..." is incorrect as written, according to the citations used. To be accurate, it should say:
The final sentence in the Schools section should say "New York City" instead of "Brooklyn", according to information given in the citation. [3]

Notes
@ Spintendo: Could use an explanation on #1. The current lead section, as well as the page as a whole, only describes a portion of the page subject's business, which is well-documented in news coverage. Same for #2.
In removing "core focus" (#5), you may have inadvertently removed a citation that described the East Village school closing.
