This edit would probably be considered vandalism, but in an abundance of caution I was hoping someone else would revert, given my conflict of interest. CorporateM (Talk) 14:56, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Recent edit

@MaskedSinger: recently added the following content to the page:

A 2020 Business Insider Investigation questioned the ethics and practices within Yelp and the culture Stoppelman fostered.(source)(source)

I want to ask that this be promptly removed pursuant to WP:BLP, which requires that the citations directly support the statement they are cited for. In this case, the cited sources do not appear to mention Stoppelman, outside of image captions. Neither of the sources accuse Stoppelman of fostering any particular corporate culture.

Please note the conflict of interest disclosed on my user page, if it wasn't apparent from context. CorporateM (Talk) 00:32, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

 Done @CorporateM:@MaskedSinger: I could read the 2020-11 source above and determined that the source spoke about Yelp, not Stoppelman. I could read the first 5 paragraphs of the 2020-10 source but had to use a database because the link is behind a paywall. I believe this source also spoke about Yelp and not Stoppelman. Thus, I have reverted the mentioned edit because of WP:BLP. If an editor finds a source that specifically mentions Stoppelman as part of this investigation I may support adding it back to the article. I have also closed this edit request.

On a second look, the 5 paragraphs I found for the 2020-10 source might be a summary of the article. I'm looking through various databases hoping to find the article, but I can only find the summary. I'll keep looking. Z1720 (talk) 02:56, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

@CorporateM: One doesn't have to agree with another's edits, one can believe another's edits are wrong and they are wrong, but to call them vandalism is patronizing and unpleasant. Got no problem that the edit is reverted. My logic is adding is that what happens at the company during the CEO's watch is on him. Take a look at Larry Ellison MaskedSinger (talk) 05:24, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

Oh now I see the vandalism was for something else - theyre all running into each other. Yeah - that was vandalism. My apologies. Been a LONG night! MaskedSinger (talk) 05:30, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

@MaskedSinger: Don't worry about the vandalism confusion, I needed multiple reads to figure out that they were separate issues. For what happens at the company during the CEO's watch is on him: I might agree if either of the sources stated this, or implemented that he was responsible in some way. However, the articles are criticizing the company, not the person. I need more explicit information about his role in the scandal before including this information in the article.

@Z1720: Thank you my friend. Be well! MaskedSinger (talk) 05:23, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

Recent Edit

Someone has (once again) replaced the links in the infobox and external links section with jeremystoppelman.com, which is not actually Jeremy Stoppelman's website. It appears to be some kind of sophisticated link-bait effort that bought a domain named after him for deceptive marketing purposes. If you click around the website, you'll see what I mean. I request these edits be reverted. CorporateM (Talk) 23:54, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

 Done. The website added by the IP user was not Stoppelman's website, so I reverted their edit. Z1720 (talk) 00:07, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

Proposed Views Section

My name is Amber Albrecht and I work for Yelp. There are some quality sources covering Stoppelman's political advocacy related to Bay Area housing and anti-trust enforcement for big tech companies that are not in the page yet. I'd like to propose a short Views section be added to incorporate these sources. Since I have a conflict of interest, I'm sharing the proposed Views section here hoping a disinterested volunteer will consider incorporating it or using it as a first draft.

 Done I took the content from your draft verbatim. I considered it well-sourced for notability. I put it under a sub-section of "Personal" labelled "Political activism". There were two issues mentioned (housing and monopolies)^*, and splitting them seemed to make things a little thin. So other editors might want to review the position of the material in the article.

^*Fun fact: many people play Monopoly not realising the rules limit the number of houses and hotels available. They're often the same people that complain the game goes on too long. Cheers. _signed, Willondon (talk) 19:34, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Proposed Tweaks to Page

My name is Amber and I work for Yelp. I'd like to request a couple tweaks to the page for impartial editors to consider:

• Under the External Links section I'd like to suggest replacing the 2015 NPR interview with a more recent one. This can be done by just swapping out the URLs.
• I'd like to suggest adding a sentence under the Political Activism section regarding his advocacy for reproductive rights as follows: "Stoppelman is one of the few male CEOs of a public company to be a public advocate for reproductive rights."

Pinging @Willondon: who reviewed my proposed edits last time. Thank you in advance for your time and attention impartially considering my requests. Best regards.Alalbrech (talk) 19:29, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

 Done Unfortunately, the Fortune source is behind a paywall, but I was able to load the resource and see the headline, which satisfied me that the content would support the statement. _signed, Willondon (talk) 22:19, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
