Copyeditor passing by

I removed a lot of content that was purely promotional in nature. References used may need to be re-checked, as I had to remove some content that was not present in the cited source. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 19:30, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

Remove?

There are references that link to youtube in the last paragraph. Should that be removed? Minecraft11226 (talk) 13:38, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Regarding undone changes

@Magnolia677:

Hi there,

I noticed you reverted a series of cleanup edits I made to this article. I'm hoping we can discuss them, as I believe several of the changes were necessary corrections to align the article with Wikipedia's policies on verifiability and biographies of living persons.

While I understand your restoration of the philanthropy section, I'd like to explain the reasoning for two other key fixes, which I believe should be reinstated:

Correcting Factual Errors: The article contained clear factual errors that were corrected. For example, it stated the Rybakov Foundation was founded in the future (2025), which was corrected to the actual date (2015). Similarly, the lead paragraph was dated "in September 2025," which was updated to reflect the current date. These are straightforward fixes to ensure the article's accuracy.

Attributing Outdated Information (Company Size): The original text stated Technonicol's size and number of manufacturing sites in the present tense, but the source for this claim is a Bloomberg article from 2013. Per WP:BLP and WP:V, presenting decade-old information as current fact can be misleading. My edit changed the wording to "According to a 2013 report..." which accurately attributes the data to its source and timeframe without removing the information. This is a standard and necessary practice for maintaining biographical accuracy.

I am happy to revert the philanthropy section to the original wording, but the corrections of clear factual errors and the proper attribution of outdated information are important for the article's integrity. Would you be open to restoring those specific, policy-based changes?

Looking forward to collaborating with you. Thanks!

Also, I am new at this, so please bear with me as I muddle along :) RichardNeilTheseus (talk) 00:27, 16 October 2025 (UTC)
