NPOV[edit]

A few edits such as this and this have fundamentally damaged this article by violating NPOV. We can't use anyone's official bio! The whole text is blatantly promotional, and I think we may need to roll it back to January 2015 to repair. Magic9Ball (talk) 14:40, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request to reflect new position[edit]

Hi, I work for Microsoft. I would like to request that the first paragraph be updated to reflect her current position at Microsoft.

Please delete , currently co-head of Hogan Lovells' Privacy and Cybersecurity practice, and insert is an American lawyer who.

After "March 31, 2016" please insert , where she focused on protecting consumers’ privacy, guarding consumers from financial fraud, and maintaining competition in industries involving health care and high-tech.[1] She is currently Corporate Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for Privacy and Regulatory Affairs at Microsoft.[2].

If prefer to replace entire paragraph:

Julie Brill is an American lawyer who served as a Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) from April 6, 2010 to March 31, 2016, where she focused on protecting consumers’ privacy, guarding consumers from financial fraud, and maintaining competition in industries involving health care and high-tech.[3] She is currently Corporate Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for Privacy and Regulatory Affairs at Microsoft.[4]

Thank you for your consideration, TechSeaSpokes2004 (talk) 18:33, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  Edit request declined  

  • The requested description of the subject is placed using Wikipedia's voice (e.g., "where she focused on protecting consumers’ privacy, guarding consumers from financial fraud.." etc.) Descriptions of the subject ought to include specific actions rather than non-specific descriptions ("guarding consumers").

Edit request to reflect new position - UPDATED[edit]

Thank you for your feedback. I have added more specific examples to address User:Spintendo's concerns.

Updated request, with more specific examples:

Julie Brill is an American lawyer who served as a Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) from April 6, 2010 to March 31, 2016. While at the FTC, she focused on protecting consumers’ privacy by developing five core components for effective data security practices[1] and encouraging data brokers to develop a Web-based portal for consumers to view data collected on them,[2] guarding consumers from financial fraud by appearing before Congress to explain deceptive practices in the financial services industry,[3] and maintaining competition in industries involving health care and high-tech by blocking a health care network’s purchase of a local hospital, opposing a pharmacy benefit manager's purchase of a competitor, and finding a search engine’s online advertising policies anticompetitive in 2013.[4] She is currently Corporate Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for Privacy and Regulatory Affairs at Microsoft.[5]

Another option would be to update the first sentence, and add the last sentence:

Julie Brill is an American lawyer who served as a Commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) from April 6, 2010 to March 31, 2016. She is currently Corporate Vice President and Deputy General Counsel for Privacy and Regulatory Affairs at Microsoft.[6]

I made the simpler change to the page but a Wikipedia editor friend informed me I should let an editor without a conflict of interest make that change, so I reverted it and now offer my suggestion in talk. Thank you in advance for your consideration. TechSeaSpokes2004 (talk) 21:23, 13 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request to fix [when?] specification[edit]

I work for Microsoft, so I have a conflict of interest.

Information to be removed:

Brill received the New York University School of Law Alumna of the Year Award,[when?][13] and was elected to the American Law Institute.[when?][14]

Information to be added:

Brill received the New York University School of Law Alumna of the Year Award in 2014,[1] the International Association of Privacy Professionals Privacy Leadership Award in 2014, [2] and was elected to the American Law Institute in 2013.[3]

Reason: To address the two inline when? templates appended to this section of text

Additional changes: I also added one other privacy-related recognition, improved the link to the American Law Institute appointment, and linked to the Wikipedia pages of the corresponding institutions.

Hope this helps improve the page. Thank you. TechSeaSpokes2004 (talk) 23:41, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reply 30-JAN-2020[edit]

Still waiting for the above changes to be addressed so re-adding "request edit" tag. Thanks, TechSeaSpokes2004 (talk) 22:20, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for reformatting the references, it is much appreciated. However, many references are still deficient. In more than a few instances, only the retrieved date has been given. In a check of 5 random selections, the date was available in all 5 instances, yet the date was not added to the reference. Certain other references are missing author information. Please also note that certain references are to be avoided. Those in the legal industry, such as law school publications, US Chamber of Commerce publications, and those publications which monitor and report on the legal and commerce industries, should all be avoided because those publications are not reliable sources in the same way that say, the New York Times would be considered reliable.

More citation work needed?[edit]

@SlimVirgin: Sarah, I'd love to get your opinion of what more needs to be done to improve citations. On GW's talk, you wrote: "For example, look at the reception section. Some of it seems to be based on personal websites and similar." Is that your main objection, or are there other issues? I'm not going to make a specific suggestion just yet, without knowing what the specific issues are, but I'd like to know what you think those problems are; and then we will work on fixing them. (You know my COI notice, but let's observe the formalities.)--GRuban (talk) 03:52, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You say on your COI page that you work for Microsoft, so you shouldn't edit the article. Did the company mention the tag to you? SarahSV (talk) 04:04, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't and won't. Come on, you know me, Sarah. We worked on numerous WP:GGTF things together, and when I had my first COI article I went to you to approve it. I'm going to follow all the rules here. Yes they did, and I said I think I can probably help. Without editing the article directly. In fact, I probably won't even make the edit requests here directly, partly because I don't know exactly what they want, and partly because, as it says on my COI page, I want them to do it. --GRuban (talk) 04:16, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thanks, but you didn't tell GorillaWarfare that. When I said it was okay that first time years ago, that's because I thought it was a one-off (and you said she hadn't asked you), but your COI page shows there has been a lot more. SarahSV (talk) 04:22, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Two more. (Honestly, it hurts my feelings that you think I've somehow turned from a real editor into a company shill: here are my last four main space edits just today, the article images for three DYKs in the last 24 hours: two American cartoonists, a German musicologist, and a British hut; last month I wrote the article, not just the image, for a Malaysian entertainer which was the second most viewed DYK article for all December; though GGTF has quieted down a bit, look what I've been doing instead for women's articles for years now... and this is no less a woman's article... I mean, I know I'm not in your league of multiple FAs, but honestly I do all right) Anyway, what are the issues? They shall be dealt with! --GRuban (talk) 04:34, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I'm sorry, I'll shut up. My apologies. The sourcing isn't good, but I don't want to end up having to fix the article for free. That's what always happens; someone complains about COI editing, and the company ends up getting the article tidied for nothing. Again, I'm sorry for blowing up. SarahSV (talk) 05:55, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
S'arright. I've gotten worse. Meanwhile, back to the article: I see you've removed most of the Reception section and moved one sentence up. Are you currently reasonably happy with the article, or do you think it needs more to avoid getting some sort of leading template? --GRuban (talk) 15:39, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The article's in poor shape. "Early life and education" covers up to her law degree in 1985. Then it jumps to "Career", which begins "While at the FTC, Brill also focused on privacy implications", which was in 2010. The section goes backwards for some reason: 1988–2008, then to 1991, then back to 2009. The sources are poor and not cited clearly. It would benefit from a rewrite by uninvolved editors and more independent secondary sources, which is why the tag (that one or some other) was not a bad idea; it alerted the reader that there's a problem. SarahSV (talk) 20:27, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'll ask, but to be honest, it's surprisingly hard to find independent indepth sources about Federal Trade Commissioners. There are lots of US government sources on them, and there are lots of interviews with them, and while those are highly reliable, they're not independent. Let's go to Federal_Trade_Commission#List_of_former_commissioners - they all have articles - and compare this article with those above and below her:

  • Jon Leibowitz March 2, 2009 – March 7, 2013 35 sources, but almost all from ftc.gov
  • Joshua D. Wright January 11, 2013 – August 24, 2015 6 sources, most of the article written on two from ftc.gov and his own testimony
  • Julie Brill April 6, 2010 – March 31, 2016 this article
  • Edith Ramirez April 5, 2010 – February 10, 2017 4 sources, 3 FTC press releases
  • Terrell McSweeny April 28, 2014 – April 27, 2018 2 sources, FTC and an interview

We can't get blood from a stone, and we apparently can't get independent sources about FTC commissioners! What would you say to https://www.law.columbia.edu/news/archive/julie-brill-serve-commissioner-ftc and https://www.law.nyu.edu/alumni/almo/pastalmos/2010-11almos/juliebrillnovember ? They're from her law schools, so again not ideal, but at least would provide a variety of "involved" sourcing besides just FTC and interviews. Would they help? --GRuban (talk) 22:52, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Those sources are better than nothing but not ideal. Leibowitz has two W/Post articles, Wright a National Review article, Ramirez a Wall Street Journal article (and a BLP sources tag), and McSweeny has nothing and is tagged. Is someone regarded as notable simply because they were a commissioner with the FTC? SarahSV (talk) 03:36, 24 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
