S&P 500 missing article

[edit]

This is one of only 4 companies in the S&P 500 that does not have an article (and the *only* company not first added in 2017).

It is now one of only 2 companies without an article. There have been articles about Global Payments in the NYT, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, WIRED, CNN, many other sources Mparrault (talk) 05:35, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How to Review this Article

[edit]

I will admit that this article has a chequered past. Previous versions of this article have been deleted/CSDed, and in fact the name of the company has been blocked in the article namespace (see Global Payments). The current version of the article has had some copyright issues as well, although these have been cleared up.
Despite the history, IMO, this article should easily meet the threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia. In terms of significance, Global Payments is the only company in the S&P 500 not to have its own article, which should qualify it for an article on its own (what sort of encyclopedia has an article about all 500 items in a category except one? It is like listing all countries except Seychelles). It has revenues in the billions, and around 10,000 employees. In terms of sources, as I said above, there have been articles about Global Payments in numerous national newspapers, including the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.
I would ask the AfC reviewer to look at this article with an open mind, and ignore the history. - Mparrault (talk) 17:53, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I did take a look and did note that. Galobtter (pingó mió) 17:57, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What was deleted was exactly the 1102 bytes which I restored in my original October 16th edit. X1, could you detail what was duplicated? -Mparrault (talk) 14:48, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Mparrault: As has been documented in my edit summaries, and can be seen in the edits, and as I have previously stated: nothing was deleted, only added. You have detailed exactly nothing. Your byte count does not explain the situation, only what amount you duplicated:
  • As of 2017, 40% of revenue was derived from vertical and omnichannel services.[1]
  • As of 2016, 75% of Global Payments revenue was from North America, 18% was from Europe, and 7% was from Asia-Pacific.[2]
  • Both Global Payments and its subsidiary Heartland Payment Systems were among the leading credit card processing companies in 2016, according to Business Insider.[3]
An RFC will be my next step, if you don't self-revert. X1\ (talk) 23:47, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I've found where the material was duplicated, and I've deleted it. Sorry for the hassle. X1\, it would have been helpful if you had indicated earlier where the material was duplicated (which you never actually did), not just that it had been duplicated. -Mparrault (talk) 13:05, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On the other hand, I really should have used auto-search for the content earlier (I only manually searched before now). -Mparrault (talk) 13:18, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Taylorcanderson. I'll look through these edits and sources and provide some feedback. At first glance, most look doable. --FeldBum (talk) 17:49, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Going through these one by one.
I'll keep adding to this response --FeldBum (talk) 13:24, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Taylorcanderson Since it's been a few months and your account has been inactive since posting this request, I'm setting the |answered= parameter (right at the top of this paragraph) to yes in order to remove this from the requested edit queue. Feel free to change it to |answered=no should you ever return to address the points raised. AngryHarpy‍talk 13:00, 11 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done for now: Hello, I share the same concerns as the editor before me.
  1. Seeking Alpha is generally considered an unreliable source, can you provide a different source.
  2. Your claim of "they are the country's fifth-biggest merchant..." is not only vague (which country), but not supported by the source cited.
  3. The specificity of some of these are very WP:PROMO like when the sentence can be significantly condensed.
  4. The history section also seems promotional,n, not just your additions, but the whole section. Why are these acquisitions significant.

Cheers, Heart (talk) 06:15, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
