Request
[edit]Hello, I have contributed an article entitled, "Andrea Elizabeth Michaels." This article went through a deletion review and was approved to "keep." However, it has been suggested that the article displays a "conflict of interest." I do personally know the subject and actually edited a business autobiography that she wrote. However, I placed the article on Wikipedia because I wanted to create a series of articles about pioneers in the event production industry. There is little to no encyclopedic information about this multi-billion-dollar industry, and I want to try and correct that. (I currently am working on another entry on one of my test pages of another prominent figure in event production.) I am placing a "Requested edits" on this site for my "Andrea Elizabeth Michaels" article. I would appreciate an experienced editor/contributor to edit the piece to resolve it of its "conflict of interest" issues. I have gone over it numerous times and am not sure that I am resolving the issues. It's the old saying: "I can't see the forest for the trees." Can someone please help me? Thank you.

Sort by request date?
[edit]Please see the request here:
...and help if you can... Basically I'd like to sort this list by oldest request first, not alphabetically. Cheers!

Sorry about the first one I’m new. I would like to request that you edit Suran (Singer) Page because you got her birth year wrong her correct year is 1986 yet Wikipedia made it 1989 please change it. I tried changing it myself but someone called CLCStudent edited back to the wrong information Shutupbabyiknowit (talk) 11:25, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

COI request userscript
[edit]I am not aware of any other userscripts which allow users to reply to COI requests. I have made and am working on COI Request Tool which allows users to respond to edit requests, in a similar way to protected edit request tools. It is designed for the fixed width vector design, but will work on legacy vector aswell. Terasail[✉] 15:43, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
Full citations not bare URLs surely?
[edit]Why are requested editors allowed to simply get away with a bare URL rather than requesting a full-fledged citation? Surely this puts unnecessary work on the implementor? Djm-leighpark (talk) 03:46, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
"Tagged since" field
[edit]Does anyone know why the "Tagged since" field is much more recent than the date the edit request was made? I want to address the oldest requests. As an example, Alfa Laval's request was posted in December, yet it says Tagged since May 15 2022. Indeed, most of the Tagged since dates say May 15 2022, despite them not being all written on that date. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 00:21, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
