- Please read WP:RS and provide independent sources for your proposed edits. Thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 11:02, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you for the guidance. I've updated the original post to include independent sources where available. Appreciate your help. LouisScorza (talk) 12:00, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Now updated, although I have restricted the key personnel to chair and CEO. Dormskirk (talk) 12:16, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot! Can we please make one minor amend to the info box:
- Change "Industry testing, inspection, certification and assurance" to simply "Testing, inspection, certification and assurance".
- Issue from my formatting on the initial request. Thanks again! LouisScorza (talk) 12:29, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Done. Dormskirk (talk) 12:46, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you!
- And finally, under 'operations' the following looks like it's from quite an old source and is repetitive of what we've just updated directly below. Can we delete?
- "Intertek Consumer Goods and Retail is the largest tester of consumer goods in the world and has a network of more than 1,000 laboratories across around 100 countries." LouisScorza (talk) 13:37, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
