Request edit on 5 November 2024

The user below has a request that an edit be made to Asia Society. That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest.
The requested edits backlog is very low. There are currently 32 requests waiting for review.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.

What I think should be changed:

Intro and Global Centers section: Asia Society's current locations now also include offices in Europe. Suggested edit could read: Along with its New York headquarters, the Asia Society has centers throughout the United States, Asia, and Europe. U.S. locations include Houston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. Locations in Europe include Zurich and Paris. Locations in Asia include: Hong Kong, Manila, Delhi, Mumbai, and Seoul. The Australia Center has offices in Melbourne and Sydney. Leadership section: remove the sentence "Dan Washburn is the Chief Content Officer" from the list of recent president as this position no longer exists (and when it did, it was not part of the senior leadership team). Board Co-Chairs listed are outdated. The current Co-Chairs are Chan Heng-Chee and John L. Thornton. The past presidents list is missing Nicholas Platt, 1992-2004. Under functions: the Business section describes the Asian Corporate Conference as ongoing, but it was last held in 2010. This section should be removed or put in the past tense as follows: From 1998-2010, the Asia Society annually presented a Corporate Conference in Asia, which functioned as a fundraiser, to examine the implications of macroeconomic trends and geopolitical developments for the region and the world.[22] Heads of Asian governments were often featured, as well as roundtable discussions with business and policy leaders from around the world.[23] The International Studies Schools Network is no longer part of Asia Society but instead is part of Community Catalyst Partners so should be removed. Some more recent initiatives for consideration to include here (and that could make this section closer in length to the 2017 controversy section): https://asiasociety.org/asian-diaspora https://asiasociety.org/asia-21-next-generation-fellows Citations for suggested changes follow below.

Please format this request so that each change is numbered and presented individually along with a relevant, reliable and independent source for each change.

It isn't reasonable to expect volunteers to read through the quite appalling wall of text above and then go through all of the text in all of the sources to try to work out which ones relate to which requested change.

Also, please note that you cannot cite Wikipedia as a source. Some of the other sourcing appears to be non-independent of the subject company and is thus inadmissible. Other sourcing appears to be profiles by individuals which probably are not independent as such profiles are usually either written by the subject or drawn up based on info provided by the subjects. All of these sources will need to be replaced with reliable independent sources.

Also you don't seem to have disclosed your conflict of interest, as required by WP:DISCLOSE.

I suggest you go back to the drawing board with this request, which in its current form is unworkable. Axad12 (talk) 18:54, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
