Text for removal
[edit]Dear Melcous, I have been asked by Nick to assist in addressing problems on both this article and the article on Nick Maughan, where I have already left a note. Again my goal is to remove any content in the article which sounds like an advertisement.
Please consider the following strikethrough text for removal:
Founded and funded by the British impact investor and philanthropist Nick Maughan, NMF has three priorities across its core pillars of education, community and environment stated aims: to narrow the educational attainment gap exacerbated by the pandemic, to combat the social problems of homelessness and knife crime in the UK, and to mitigate the effects of climate change by supporting progressive conservation and carbon sequestration schemes.[1][2]
Activities and initiatives
The Nick Maughan Foundation helps young people from families below the median-income level have the same opportunities as those from more fortunate backgrounds.[3][4][5]
NMF launched BoxWise in 2020,[6] founded by Nick Maughan and Rick Ogden,[7][8] Offering a 10-week which offers a boxing programme delivered by England Boxing coaches., BoxWise helps young people with their fitness and mental wellbeing while offering progression routes to help its graduates enter further education or step into employment.[9][10]
Thanks again for looking at this Sharkneil (talk) 15:09, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Sharkneil. I have made some of those changes and have removed the maintenance template. In future, you can use the Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard for this kind of request, which will flag it for all editors, rather than just tagging one. Cheers, Melcous (talk) 20:13, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for those actions @Melcous! I had no idea there was a system for this, if there is a next time then I will give it a go.
- I have another post on the Nick Maughan Talk page, when I tried the Wizard it wanted me to add a new section, would you mind please kindly taking a look over my original suggestions? I think my formatting should fit the edit request demands, but I'm not sure how to put my original text under the wording at the top in the fancy brackets (these { }), or if that's even the way it should be done?
