This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

I found the NewYorkTimes.com best seller citation requested by an editor in the notes above for the proposed sentence, since the original source I proposed wasn't strong enough.

Please insert as paragraph two of "Origins": "An expanded version of the book, with a forward by President Bill Clinton, appeared in 2011 ^[1]^[2]^[3] and became a New York Times best-seller.^[4]" -BC1278 (talk) 19:32, 2 June 2018 (UTC)BC1278Reply

promotional wording and content

Latest comment: 8 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

a client list is promotional; a list of lectures given is unencyclopedic content; and I reworded the remainder less promotionally. The miscellaneous mentions do not count towards notability , and in any case are not needed to show notability , given the NYT bestseller verification . DGG ( talk ) 16:14, 5 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

@DGG: But why did you cut this, from a well-regarded academic journal:

"In Strategy + Business, the journal's editor, Art Kleiner observed in 2012 that the corporate world seemed to be splitting between "command-and-control authoritarianism, often in the name of cutting costs," and "enlightened management" advocated by Seidman.^[1]"" BC1278 (talk) 16:20, 5 July 2018 (UTC)BC1278Reply

You are using it more appropriately for the article on Dov Seidman. You are also using it--less appropriately--in the article on LRN (company), Please see your user talk page for further discussion. DGG ( talk ) 14:42, 6 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
