Hi. I noticed that you are changing the nationality of quite a lot of corporate articles but you aren't providing reliable sources. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you have any queries you can leave me a message on my talk page.
You seem to be adding your personal opinion rather than verifiable facts. For example Thomson-CSF was not an American company. Yes there was an American subsidiary in a distant part of its corporate history, but that doesn't override the rest of the corporate history. A few references:
- BBC News: "One of the UK's biggest electronics companies, Racal, is being bought for £1.3bn by the French company Thomson-CSF."
- The Engineer: "Racal Electronics this week confirmed that French defence electronics giant Thomson-CSF has approached it to discuss a possible bid for the whole company."
- Flight International: "The French company confirms that it "made an approach in November"
- Wall Street Journal: "Chief Executive Denis Ranque said the rebranding is aimed at helping the company break from its past as just a French defense electronics company."
Thank you.Mark83 (talk) 07:22, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Further disruptive editing
editPlease refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Thomson-CSF. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Mark83 (talk) 21:00, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Edit summary
editHi. Thank you for the invitation to study tax inversion. With all due respect I wouldn’t need to if you provide sources for your edits and quote them accurately. Thank you for now doing that in this case. Mark83 (talk) 19:30, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
Edits to corporate articles
editCan you please stop with this pro-United States mission you are on. This edit you made to Daimler AG is a good example - it is disruptive and not factually accurate. You are trying to imply that US offices have the same or similar status as the corporate HQ. In this case your addition of "Portland,United states(Commercial)" is strange. That's just an office of Daimler Trucks, in no way does that have a similar status as the corporate HQ. If we listed every office the company has the list would be endless. We could as easily list the Atlanta, GA Mercedes-Benz USA HQ? Or a similar one in Canada, or Australia. Your edits which amount to diminution of anything non-American, and your tangential links to America are concerning me. Let's stick to verifiable facts. Mark83 (talk) 07:42, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
Accuracy
editHi. Just a friendly note to ask you to be more careful with your edits. You are not always accurately quoting references. Examples:
- [1], you've said Alexion shareholders will own 15% of the combined company. The reference says "c.15%" (i.e. approximately).
- [2], you presented estimated earnings as actual earnings.
- [3] you marked this as increased earnings, when in fact the reference says it was a decrease year on year.
- [4] your reference says "annual revenue approaching $300 million" but you presented as $300 million (with no qualification).
I know you are editing in good faith in these examples, but you must reproduce facts as presented in the references. There isn't a grey area in these examples. If you have any queries I'm happy to help you with them. Mark83 (talk) 07:48, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
Further distruptive editing (2)
editPlease stop your disruptive editing.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Triumph Group, you may be blocked from editing. Mark83 (talk) 14:00, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
