Edit request: neutrality and sourcing copyedits (Feature and Lollipop Racing)

I edit with a conflict of interest on behalf of the article's subject (disclosed at User:Ffjan88 and in the {{Connected contributor}} notice above). Rather than editing the article myself, I am requesting the following neutrality and verifiability copyedits to the "Feature and Lollipop Racing" subsection, to address the {{COI}} maintenance tag:

1. Remove promotional product description. Change "...an entertainment technology company that develops Smart Content, a technology that lets audiences interact with content and receive rewards such as coupons, early access and digital collectibles." to "...an entertainment technology company that develops interactive audience-engagement technology it markets as "Smart Content"." The list of "rewards" reads as marketing copy and is not supported by the cited independent sources.

2. Remove the word "flagship" (WP:PEACOCK). Change "Feature's flagship project is Lollipop Racing, a racing franchise combining..." to "Feature's project Lollipop Racing is a racing franchise combining..."

3. Improve one citation. In the same sentence, please replace the citation to the Variety "Film News in Brief" roundup (<ref name="variety2023">...</ref>) with the existing Deadline reference (<ref name="deadline2023" />), which directly reports David Ayer's involvement in the project. The Porsche citation already present supports the showrunner credit.

These three changes are limited to tone and sourcing and do not remove any properly sourced facts. Thank you for reviewing. Ffjan88 (talk) 16:17, 5 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Small wording fixes

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

Got a COI, Im still learning best methods and practices here. Im helping Steven Ilous with his page so I'm not editing directly (I disclosed this on the box above). Two small wording fixes in the Feature and Lollipop Racing section, both to trim promo tone:

Please change "Feature's flagship project is Lollipop Racing" to "Feature's project is Lollipop Racing". "flagship" reads a bit promotional.

Please change "develops Smart Content, a technology that lets audiences interact with content and receive rewards such as coupons, early access and digital collectibles" to "develops Smart Content, a technology that lets audiences interact with content." ..The list of rewards reads like ad copy.

Thanks. Ffjan88 (talk) 11:15, 6 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

COI tag

The user below has a request that an edit be made to Steven Ilous. That user has an actual or apparent conflict of interest.
The requested edits backlog is very high. Please be extremely patient. There are currently 670 requests waiting for review.

Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies.

The wording fixes I asked for above were made on 19 July, thanks Spintendo. Since the tag went up I've only posted requests here and my connection is disclosed in the box at the top. Can someone take a look and see if the COI banner at the top still needs to stay up? Thanks. Ffjan88 (talk) 07:56, 27 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
