Venues


 * Remove “AT&T Plaza – Dallas, Texas” from the list as PNC purchased naming rights for this plaza in 2020.


 * Remove “TPC San Antonio – San Antonio, Texas (AT&T Oaks Course & AT&T Canyons Course)” as that sponsorship concluded in 2019 and neither course retained AT&T as part of their names.


 * Remove “War Memorial Stadium, AT&T Field – Little Rock, Arkansas” as AT&T’s naming rights expired in 2015 and were not renewed.

Sponsorships

Suggest removing the following from the list (sourcing for validation included):
 * AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic – the naming rights agreement ended in 2014.


 * AT&T National – AT&T sponsored The National between 2007 – 2013, with Quicken Loans taking over naming rights from 2014 – 2018. See The National.


 * United States Olympic team – sponsorship deal with AT&T ended in 2016.


 * AT&T American Cup (gymnastics) – sponsorship was suspended and ended in 2018.

Suggest updating the following:
 * AT&T Red River Rivalry is now known as the AT&T Red River Showdown. Suggest updating listing on this page for accuracy.

Suggest adding the following:
 * 100 Thieves (esports)
 * Chicago Bulls
 * College Football Playoff National Championship
 * Dallas Stars
 * Houston Rockets
 * National Basketball Association, Women’s National Basketball Association , NBA G League , USA Basketball and NBA 2K League (basketball, esports)

Edit Request

Recommend adding the following sentence (in bold, below) to the tail end of the existing section re: AT&T/One America News Network to account for the fact that AT&T refuted the claims made:

AT&T denied the allegations, claiming that the company does not have a financial interest in OAN.


 * I have added the the first part of the quote unbolded. If you want to discuss the changes or make further changes, you can do so by replying below. Pabsoluterince (talk) 05:29, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Removal of referenced content
That comedian John Oliver who has a huge following in the US, and whose firm indirectly works for AT&T, criticized the company for its funding of the far-right conspiracy spreading channel OAN, with tens of millions of dollars, is highly relevant so that numerous sources picked up what Oliver said, so it should not be reverted like this.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 21:55, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * WP:BALASP What makes John Oliver's opinion due here? Including his non-neutral critism has little overall significance to this controversy and AT&T. Pabsoluterince (talk) 05:02, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Edit Request – Lead Section Corrections
NOTE: I’m proposing the following edits for FleishmanHillard on behalf of AT&T. I am a paid editor and aware of the COI guidelines. A few pieces of information in the lead section are now outdated, so I’m proposing the following edits for accuracy. Please let me know of any questions or comments as you review. Thanks for your time and consideration. Jon Gray (talk) 21:31, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅. Note: I didn't use the alltopeverything.com citation for the world's largest telco by revenue addition. I've instead linked to List of largest companies by revenue article page, where one can see that is the case (and it carries a citation there). See Ptrnext (talk) 03:55, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

Lead Section


 * Second sentence: Propose adding clarity that “world’s largest telecommunications company” is a measure by revenue. Also, AT&T is no longer the world’s largest provider of mobile telephone services in the U.S. – the company is now third. With proposed revisions, the second sentence would read as follows:

It is the world’s largest telecommunications company by revenue and the 3rd largest provider of mobile telephone services in the U.S.


 * Third sentence: AT&T’s ranking on the Fortune 500 dropped from 9th (2020) to 13th, and revenue numbers have decreased as well. To reflect accurate info, propose changing the third sentence to read as follows:

As of 2022, AT&T was ranked 13th on the Fortune 500 rankings of the largest United States corporations, with revenues of $168.8 billion.
