== U.S International Trade Commission order par

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Specific text to be added or removed: Present tense terms in "History - 1970-1990"
Reason for the change: The paragraph detailing the United States International Trade Commission order of Samsung Group of South Korea unlawfully selling computer chips seems to be (partly) written in present tense, including phrases like "within the coming weeks", while it seems to cite it's source word for word. This may be confusing for readers, seeing as Texas Instruments and Samsung have long since settled this matter.

Change the name of "Royal Dutch Shell" to "Shell plc" in the "Major Clients" section since Shell is no longer a Dutch company and such can no longer use the moniker "Royal" since that belongs in a certain criteria of Dutch companies (exist for longer than 100 years and be a dutch national company, and it has not yet been crown a british royal company).

Changing to MDY dates

We recently updated MOS:KO to include MOS:KO-DATE. This asks for MDY date format (e.g. August 15, 1945) and not DMY format (e.g. 15 August 1945) for South Korea–related articles. As this article is pretty major and high-traffic, I wanted to ask for approval before the change is made. I'll give it a week or so before going ahead with it. seefooddiet (talk) 04:01, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't feel authorized to dispense approval, but I see no reason to oppose the conversion. If there's an MOS:KO it's more attuned to Korean customs and appropriate usages than I am. Wait for others' input, certainly, but AFAIAC, go for it. — JohnFromPinckney (talk / edits) 12:48, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
