In the section on criticisms and controversies, the last couple items in particular do not appear to be documented, and/or they ref er to "now" in ways that appear to mean "prior to 2015" etc. If someone could either document and update (including removing the meaningless reference to "now") or remove the items in question, the section would be improved. -- Haruo ( talk) 17:42, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Unable to review edit request
Your edit request could not be reviewed because the provided references are not formatted correctly. The citation style predominantly used by the Ameriprise Financial article is
Citation Style 1 (CS1). The citation style used in the edit request consists of bare URL's.
[a] Any requested edit of yours which may be implemented will need to resemble the current style already in use in the article – in this case, CS1. (See
WP:CITEVAR.) In the extended section below titled Citation style, I have illustrated two examples: one showing how the edit request was submitted, and another showing how requests should be submitted in the future:

In the example above there are three URL's provided with the claim statements, but these URL's have not been placed using Citation Style 1, which is the style predominantly used by the Ameriprise Financial article. Using this style, the WikiFormatted text would resemble the following:
In the example above the references have been formatted according to Citation Style 1, which shows the author, the source's name, date, etc., all information which is lost when only the links are provided. As Wikipedia is a volunteer project, larger edit requests such yours are generally expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review. |
Kindly rewrite your edit request so that it aligns more with the second example shown in the collapsed section above, and feel free to re-submit that edit request at your earliest convenience. If you have any questions about this formatting please don't hesitate to ask myself or another editor. Regards, Spintendo 16:03, 13 December 2018 (UTC)

It is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor or adopted by the consensus of editors already working on the page, unless a change in consensus has been achieved. If the article you are editing is already using a particular citation style, you should follow it.
Changes to URL structure have been made. Please review at your earliest convenience.
Thank you.
