Collaborating on F500 Articles

Hello Indefensible I noticed your interest on WP:Companies to improve Fortune 500 articles. I have COI with some of these companies. There are some errors and inaccuracies that need to be updated on those articles. Since I am familiar with the subject and I have COI, If I present content and verifiable secondary sources, would you be open to collaborating? What are your thoughts on this?—Chefmikesf (talk) 05:37, 11 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Chefmikesf, thanks for reaching out. Yes, I would be interested in collaborating. Which companies are you interested in? Please provide a list of candidates, then we can work on the articles from their respective talk pages on any we move forward with. - Indefensible (talk) 06:44, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Hi Indefensible, thanks for your reply. I would like to start on the Honeywell article and make updates to a few sections. I can post some thoughts on what needs updates and the references. What are your thoughts on this? --Chefmikesf (talk) 19:54, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
Chefmikesf - Sure, let's discuss on Honeywell's talk page. - Indefensible (talk) 04:38, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
Indefensible, I appreciate your interest and collaboration on the article! Thanks for your continuous help--Chefmikesf (talk) 18:20, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
No prob, is there anything else you would like to work on Chefmikesf? - Indefensible (talk) 03:52, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
At the moment, I have two sections on two different articles I am working to improve. I can tag you with a description on each respective talk page to see if you're interested in collaborating. Thanks--Chefmikesf (talk) 19:16, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi Chefmikesf, I believe the last 2 requests for Honeywell and Johnson & Johnson have both been addressed, please review the respective articles. - Indefensible (talk) 23:21, 20 March 2020 (UTC)

Hello Indefensible, I hope all is well with you and your family during these times. Thanks for adding/updating the sections on both articles. I will keep an eye out for any more references that support the credo section for JnJ. In regards to Honeywell, did you have any thoughts on the four sections of prose below the bulleted lists in the Proposed Business Groups?--Chefmikesf (talk) 22:23, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
Thank you, same to you. Let me take a look again at the Honeywell article. - Indefensible (talk) 16:50, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
Great, thank you!--Chefmikesf (talk) 22:43, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

October 2021

Hello again :@Indefensible: I hope all is well with you. I noticed a few minor updates on the Honeywell and the List of Honeywell products and services articles. Would you be open to reviewing a few minor updates?--Chefmikesf (talk) 23:28, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Hi Chefmikesf. Sure, can take a look. - Indefensible (talk) 21:14, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
Thanks @Indefensible: There are three updates is see.
  1. Update lead per talk page suggestion
2021 Updating the Lead Paragraph

1.

Location:Lead


Current Lead


Honeywell International Inc. is an American publicly traded, multinational conglomerate headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina. It primarily operates in four areas of business: aerospace, building technologies, performance materials and technologies (PMT), and safety and productivity solutions (SPS).[1]

Honeywell is a Fortune 100 company, ranked 92nd in 2019.[2] The company has a global workforce of approximately 110,000 workers, with approximately 44,000 employed in the United States.[3][4] The current chairman and chief executive officer (CEO) is Darius Adamczyk.[5]

The company's current name, Honeywell International Inc., is the product of a merger of Honeywell Inc. by acquisition to AlliedSignal during 1999. The company headquarters were consolidated with AlliedSignal's headquarters in Morristown, New Jersey; however, the combined company chose the name "Honeywell" because of the considerable brand recognition.[6] Honeywell was a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average index from 1999 to 2008. Prior to 1999, its corporate predecessors were included dating back to 1925, including early entrants in the computing and thermostat industries.[7][8]

In 2020, Honeywell rejoined the Dow Jones Industrial Average index[9] and the following year moved its stock listing from the New York Stock Exchange to the Nasdaq.[10]

Catherine Hamlin

Don't you think it would be better to try to find some references for the awards you removed instead of removing all the unreferenced ones? I'm pretty sure they were all valid and just needed some time to find. ww2censor (talk) 23:01, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

Copied them over to the article's talk page, they can be added back as references are found for them. Since the article is in good shape otherwise, did not want to hold up the Recent Deaths nomination for the frontpage. - Indefensible (talk) 23:08, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

ITN banners

Hi, Indefensible, and thanks for your work in placing {{ITN talk}} banners on talk pages; they're a key part of Wikipedia's behind-the-scenes documentation. I notice that you've generally been placing them at the bottom of the list of talk-page templates – however, according to WP:TALKORDER, {{ITN talk}} (#8) should go above WikiProject banners (#9). As such, would you mind adding the banners in the correct order for future talk pages? This would save extra effort for someone else to rearrange them to conform with our guidelines, and emphasises the ITN appearance a little more. In addition, you could also consider adding an |oldid= parameter to each template (with the corresponding revision ID of Template:In the news), which will allow readers easy access to the Main Page ITN template as it appeared at the time. Alternatively, it's also RscprinterBot's job to add ITN banners to talk pages automatically if they're missing, although you're still more than welcome to do so yourself. Thank you! — RAVENPVFF · talk · 18:21, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the info RAVENPVFF, was not aware of that. How do I find the oldid to link it to? Not sure where the "corresponding revision ID of Template:In the news" is listed. - Indefensible (talk) 18:46, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
The easiest method is to go to the revision history of Template:In the news and locate the edit in which the link for the person/event in question was first added. Usually, you can quickly identify this from the admins' edit summaries. If you click on the corresponding timestamp, the revision ID will be the number that follows "&oldid=" in the URL. You can then use this number in the {{ITN talk}} parameter. For example, we see that Joachim Yhombi-Opango was added to ITN on 18:02, 31 March 2020 (this might differ based on your time zone settings). Clicking on that timestamp will bring you to the specific old revision of the ITN template, which has an oldid of 948373392. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 19:03, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Okay, thanks again Ravenpuff. Will take a look and try to keep this in mind. - Indefensible (talk) 19:51, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
RAVENPVFF, did I do this one right - Talk:Eric Verdonk? - Indefensible (talk) 20:16, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
Almost – you used the oldid for the candidates page, instead of the Main Page template; I've fixed this for you. Otherwise, there don't seem to be any problems. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 04:08, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
In the news' template, got it. Thanks, will try to get it right next time. - Indefensible (talk) 04:35, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
Hopefully this one is right: Talk:Edward L. Feightner. - Indefensible (talk) 04:40, 5 April 2020 (UTC)
Yep, that's correct. Thanks! — RAVENPVFF · talk · 06:10, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Ideally similarly collated lists exist that focus on other regions to mitigate systemic bias concerns the best we can. Thought the NYT list would be useful anyways. Kees08 (Talk) 19:41, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
That is a good point. Honestly I have only been using entries from Deaths in 2020 that are already found and added by other editors, so I have not been much help in that aspect. - Indefensible (talk) 20:00, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
It can be hard. I found NY Post obituaries dedicated to coronavirus. I spent some time trying to find sources for non-US centric coronavirus deaths; the only minor success was looking at others Wikipedias, like the German recent deaths page. Harder ways to find them would be to search sites like All Africa manually. For deaths that have been recorded in WikiData, they can be seen at Wikipedia:WikiProject_COVID-19/Deaths. Definitely important to vet those (and correct the wrong ones!). Click update the list now button to refresh it. I was hoping I could find more and be more helpful, but that's all I have. Did the ITN RD rules end up changing? The discussion looks ongoing but haven't posted them in a few days. Kees08 (Talk) 16:00, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
Not sure, do not think they did though. It may be that the "crisis" situation may soon be over if the coronavirus is peaking in the near-term, in which case changing the rules is probably not necessary at this time. - Indefensible (talk) 17:26, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Cepheid Inc

This revert you made replaced some material I recently added to the article, which had been removed by an IP. The IP seems to be the company's, so I COI-warned the IP account and flagged the IP on talk page so that it will be more noticeable in future. I've also improved the content and sourcing further. Thank you for spotting it, and for pinging me. HLHJ (talk) 22:25, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

No prob HLHJ, good job improving the article. Was trying to find information to expand the description of the GeneXpert system but could only find marketing materials, looks like you were more successful in finding references to use. Did not realize that the IP editor was from Cepheid, unfortunately that makes sense though. Would be happy to work with you if you are interested on expanding similar companies, e.g. Abbott, Roche, Thermo Fisher, etc. - Indefensible (talk) 22:48, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
Mostly just the IEEE source, but it helped to have a pretty good idea of how it worked while looking for the sources.  I've been editing CEPI and GAVI recently, also using MSF sources. The articles you mention do seem to be full of generic management details of the sort that could just as well apply to a company selling carpets. I'd be happy to help add some information on what the companies actually technically do. This may be easier to add at the sub-company level, though some sort of breakdown of where a diverse umbrella groups' profit comes from might work. HLHJ (talk) 05:01, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
You might also be interested in Economics of vaccines, since you are interested in economics and pharma. I just created it.HLHJ (talk) 05:23, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
You are much better at article writing than I am it looks like, hope to improve and be able to contribute like that as well. A lot of companies have poor coverage on Wikipedia from what I have seen, for example User:Nbauman wrote a critique on the talk page for Thermo Fisher Scientific recently which I largely agree with. Many of the other companies working on COVID-19 technologies have very limited coverage of that, I think Cepheid's article may be the best one in that regards currently based on the updates which you made. - Indefensible (talk) 03:31, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Bucky Pizzarelli

I saw your edit of April 2, 2020 in which you removed the discography of Bucky Pizzarelli. The subject of discographies on Wikipedia is complicated, and I would like to hear the extent of your knowledge. Your edit summary says you removed the discog because it was unreferenced. Is it your belief that all discogs on Wikipedia must be referenced? If so, how?
Vmavanti (talk) 03:40, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi Vmavanti, thanks for reaching out. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia in general and its material should be supported by WP:Reliable Sources, so details such as an artist's discography list should either have a reference supporting it overall or ideally references to support each line individually. For example, Dustin Diamond#Filmography was recently updated to have a reference attached to each of his listed works. Looking back, the reason why I took out the discography on Bucky Pizzarelli's article is because he had just died and been nominated for posting to WP:In the news#Recent deaths section on the English Wikipedia's frontpage, which requires certain quality standards per those guidelines. So if the discography had been left on the article without sufficient references coverage, it would not have been able to be posted. - Indefensible (talk) 04:29, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
Babies reach out. I'm sending a reply in response to your edit, about which I wish you had consulted me. It takes hours, sometimes days, to do one jazz discography that can be thoughtlessly deleted in one second. It's certainly not a copy/paste. I don't give a rat's ass about "In the news", because Wikipedia is not a newspaper, it's a kind of encyclopedia, and Wikipedia is at its worst when people treat it as a newspaper that one reads for "the latest". That's not a good enough reason to delete a discography. If you know how I can reliably source every jazz album ever produced, I would certainly like to hear it, because I've been working on it for five years with one other guy. One. You might click on my name for some information about this subject. One more thing. They are not "artists". They are musicians. Artists uses paint brushes. There is nothing wrong with being a musician. It requires no fake rhetorical elevation to be an acceptable pursuit.
Vmavanti (talk) 13:40, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
Ok, you kind of have an attitude problem, but I see this subject is important to you somehow. Agree that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a newspaper (and therefore it should have proper referencing to meet encyclopedic standards), but why is it such a big deal to copy and paste the discography back from the talk page where I saved it to? Also, it's not my responsibility to inform you of that change, you do not own the article and should have followed the update back then if you were interested. It is not of particular importance to me, so feel free to deal with it if it is important to you. Also, you are wrong because music is a subset of art (as it states clearly at the beginning of the article for music), therefore musicians are a subset of artists. Semantic foibles, get over it. - Indefensible (talk) 19:48, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
Well, attitude runs both ways. I don't pretend. I prefer honesty. My objections have got nothing to do with "ownership" of the article. You won't find a trophy room on my page with articles I claim to own. If you had read at least some of my user page, you would have learned that the subject of jazz discography and finding sources for them is very much a "big deal". How responsible a person you choose to be is of course your business. But on a site that pretends to value "civility", "collegiality", and other vague virtues in the abstract, it's reasonable to expect a minimal amount of courtesy and consideration for the efforts of others, as opposed to "doing your own thing" without regard to the consequences. Regardless of the ease of undeletion, removing a jazz discography in some cases means removing hours of work. That's not a special interest of mine. It's a fact pertaining to the subject at hand. One's work, regardless of the subject, ought to be important to oneself and of some consideration to others if only to a degree.
Vmavanti (talk) 22:43, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
Jazz is not a particular interest of mine. It is apparently an interest for you. This specific edit in question was made back in April 2020, so your complaint is 10 months late. With all due respect to the subject, I do not care about this discography issue which you have raised, as I similarly would not expect you to care about the interests that I have which you may not share. However, I was following the rules of ITN/RD, which had community support and was approved by an admin. If you do not like the responsible policy, feel free to take it to them and see about getting it changed. Note that if you are editing biographical articles with unreferenced discographies, then you are arguably not meeting encyclopedic standards and would recommend you try to have WP:Reliable sources.
In any case, if the issue is important to you, considering spending your time editing the article instead of here. If you would like to continue civil discussion then fine, but otherwise please stop wasting my time. If you have a gripe with Wikipedia in general, this is not the appropriate place where it can be addressed. - Indefensible (talk) 01:51, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Beam Therapeutics moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Beam Therapeutics, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

Shuttle-Centaur was a version of the Centaur upper stage rocket designed to be carried aloft inside the Space Shuttle. Two variants were developed: Centaur G-Prime and Centaur G. The powerful Centaur upper stage allowed for heavier deep space probes, and for them to reach Jupiter sooner. However, neither variant ever flew on a Shuttle.

ITN - 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest

Hello Indefensible, you had nominated 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest for the 'in the news' section. The laws have now been repealed by Parliament, although this still need to be signed by the President of India for the repeal to come into effect. When this happens, can you again nominate it for ITN? (I am not familiar with the nomination procedure.) Thank you. --Jose Mathew (talk) 12:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the note, will renominate if no one else does. - Indefensible (talk) 23:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Thank you, President has signed now. (Sources: [291], [292]) --Jose Mathew (talk) 16:16, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
Added under ITN. Hope it was done correctly. --Jose Mathew (talk) 03:34, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Looks good, just needed to add the article's link in the blurb. - Indefensible (talk) 05:09, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Zymergen

Hello Indefensible,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Zymergen for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Hatchens: The article is not meant to be promotional but encyclopedic, I have no conflict of interest with them and found their page missing after reading about their competitor. Also there is an existing Japanese article which I am using as the basis for the English page. - Indefensible (talk) 07:32, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
