 Question: Clarification needed - there are a number of sections that say Change "[blank]" to "..., what is being changed here? This will need to be fixed before the changes can be made. Please change the ans parameter to no in the template when you're ready to proceed. Thanks, Encoded   Talk 💬 22:50, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, there was information missing, and more paragraphs in the first article than in this update. When I stated Change "(blank)" to "xyz", it's an addition of information. I didn't know what to do in that case, but I hope it's accepted that I did it in this way. Scmaria (talk) 08:02, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Ah I understand! Would you be able to add into the original request where you'd like these sections to be placed in the article, or is it between two sections (e.g. the above and below line requests)? Thanks, Encoded  Talk 💬 09:00, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello, yes, they are in their "final" place. Simply add the new information where it's placed and continue with the rest of the changes. Thank you in advance. Scmaria (talk) 06:49, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I see the date when the company was incorporated hasn't been updated. Please, review the suggested changes and source of information (London Stock Exchange) and correct. Scmaria (talk) 06:18, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

@Scmaria: The London Stock Exchange source appears to be company supplied data, and is therefore not considered reliable. I went with the date in the Wall Street Journal source, which is 2009. Do you have a reliable source for the 2008 date? You could also contact the WSJ and have then change the date. STEMinfo (talk) 18:42, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Okay, let's proceed with other changes then, and I'll try to find an external source. Thank you Scmaria (talk) 06:55, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
