Charles P. FinchCharles Finch (creative entrepreneur) – As Charles moves ahead in his career, he see it necessary to highlight his career path. The reasoning for the choice 'creative' is to highlight his industry expertise area, referring to film production etc, as recently updated in his bibliography. The choice 'entrepreneur' refers to his business development, diversifying into new brand investments. A purely factual update to add clarity to Charles Finch as he progresses in his industry.

Thank you for your response. Can you move to Charles Finch (entrepreneur) please. Thank you Sophierizan (talk) 10:12, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
Can't be moved yet. Other people may disagree with me, or they may have better suggestions. You have to wait for more people to comment. After seven days an administrator will assess the consensus and decide whether or not to move it. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 10:18, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
  • Weak oppose: The provided rationale seems promotional. "Charles P. Finch" was the headline of the recent article in I-M magazine, so I see no evidence that it is not appropriate as a common name used in reliable independent sources. The nominator has not provided a comprehensible non-promotional rationale. Wikipedia is not motivated by wanting to "highlight" aspects that might help its subjects "move ahead in their career" or "progress in their industry". —BarrelProof (talk) 13:45, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
The I-M Magazine link refers to Charles as Charles P. Finch because at the time the article was written that was how he was referred to. The change is not to support his career progress, but to add factual clarity towards his industry of work. There are more articles online referring to Charles as Charles Finch; If not more credible sources, such as IMB, Vogue, WWD just to name a few. This edit is not taking a promotional tone, it support the disambiguation towards his name. Sophierizan (talk) 16:17, 31 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Requesting to move to Charles Finch (businessman). Due to the above reasoning. This new request is completely neutral, does not support his career progression. Merely identifies Charles and the Industry he is present in.

Can you also advice how I update his photo on Wiki? Thanks

Note that the national disambiguator is necessary because of the existence of Charles B. Finch, who was an American businessman. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:01, 6 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

The opening description

edit

Some single-purpose accounts and anonymous IP editors have repeatedly been changing the opening description in the article so that it includes what I consider unhelpful puffery. The change is always basically changing "a British businessman involved in ..." to "an international businessman with substantial interests in ...". These editors have never been mentioning this change in edit summaries to describe their action. Let's please discuss the question rather than just "edit war" over it. —BarrelProof (talk) 20:46, 16 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
