Talk:George Kollitides

Clean up per Wikipedia policies and style
I've overhauled this article to bring it in line with Wikipedia policies and style, namely: Here are some of the errors that I have corrected: If the unregistered editor continues to revert these edits, the page should probably be protected. Ground Zero &#124; t 21:37, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Neutral point of view
 * punctuation
 * capitalization
 * "Kollitides is a Managing Director of A&M Capital Opportunities" to "managing director" - see WP:JOBTITLES
 * " a billion-dollar private equity-owned, manufacturing company composed of top sporting and outdoor brands, which he was responsible for building" to "a private equity-owned holding company he built composed of sporting and outdoor manufacturers" -- see WP:NPOV.
 * "He also sits on the Good Sports New York Advisory Board, which provides a diverse range of sporting equipment to youth in need, and is an active member of the Young Presidents Organization (“YPO”), a global community of leaders committed to better leadership through lifelong learning and idea exchange." to "He also sits on the Good Sports New York Advisory Board and is an active member of the Young Presidents Organization (YPO)." -- too much detail not directly about the subject of the article.
 * "Kollitides is a sportsman who cares deeply about the outdoors and conservation." -- deleted. Come on, how is this neutral or factual? This is an encyclopedia article, not a publicist's puff-piece.
 * Acronyms (“YPO”, etc.): Wikipedia does not put defined acronyms in quotation mark- lawyers do. See WP:ACRONYM.

The edit war is continuing despite my attempt to initiate a discussion here. The same typos, and punctuation errors keep getting restored, and there is still no regard for neutrality, one of the pillars of Wikipedia. So edits by unregistered editors will be reviewed now before they are entered.

I have made one of the edits requested. The others I have not for the reasons identified above. I have reordered the career section to be in chronological order instead of reverse chronological order, which is easier for the reader to follow, and makes the syntax simpler.

This article needs more references to reliable sources. Ground Zero &#124; t 14:05, 20 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Don't remove the "citation needed" stags until references have been provided by to a reliable source. Ground Zero &#124; t 13:20, 21 August 2016 (UTC)

Notability
To echo what others have said, I struggle to see why this individual is sufficiently notable to merit inclusion in Wikipedia. The only source that seemed even partially sufficient was the 40 Under 40 award, for which the link is dead. Unless there is strong disagreement, I may nominate this article for deletion given its lack of notability and the fact that a notability notice has been pending since 2016...

 * I wish I'd known about commenting on Wikipedia. Is it too late to strike this NRA member, gun violence loving, asshat from the records? 2600:1700:87C0:2FC0:5849:6B1A:7BC6:DA87 (talk) 16:54, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
