Most issues (cats, CoI) are going to affect the pair of articles equally. Please keep an eye on Talk:Wendell Milliman too. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:11, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Copyedit suggestion over shared content[edit]

Just a copyediting comment, but there's a lot of relatively minor text in this article (the small size of the early office etc.) that's shared with the related bio of Wendell Milliman. They might both be improved by reducing this - the content is good, but it would be better iif it only appeared in one at a time. Obviously the primary information needs to be duplicated to describe their shared context. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:00, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would merging this information into an article on Millliman, Inc. do the job? I'd like to do it myself, but probably shouldn't for NPOV reasons. Theophan (talk) 21:35, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As a neutral business scholar wannabe, I've initiated a Milliman page. I don't know enough about the individuals to boil their story down and properly link the text. Bagsc (talk) 08:47, 30 July 2008 (UTC)Bagsc[reply]

How do we have the tags removed?[edit]

I've edited this page, removing subjective statements. I also added references and links. How do we go about removing the tags?

I have an interest in this essay as Milliman, Inc's editor. There is, however, no commercial value for Milliman in posting this information. It is for informational and educational purposes. Stuart Robertson is part of the history of the actuarial profession in the United States.

Additionally, most of the sources about Stuart Robertson are internal to Milliman (not unusual since he spent his career with the firm, which is a private partnership). It would be very difficult to post any kind of information about Stuart Robertson without access to this information. Thus this seems like a situation where the Wikipedia community benefits from my involvement, despite the perceived conflict of interest.

If you need someone to vouch for this information, we can contact the Society of Actuaries or the American Academy of Actuaries.

Once we have resolved the cleanup of this page, I will do the same to the Wendell Milliman page. Thank you for your help. 76.121.54.158 (talk) 09:18, 20 November 2008 (UTC)Jeremy Engdahl-Johnson[reply]
