Talk:Grey London

Factual inaccuracies
Full disclosure: I work for the company in question, Grey London. I have no interest in spamming the page with biased/promotional text and will not edit it myself; but, I am concerned about a number of factual inaccuracies, namely, under the 'Leadership' header.

Chris Hirst is CEO, Nils Leonard is Executive Creative Director - this information is correct (source: )

However, Neil Hourston is no longer Chief Strategy Officer. He left the company in May 2011 (source: )

In his place (as Chief Strategy Officer), the company has appointed Lucy Jameson (source: )

Also incorrect is the following statement: 'Jonathan Mendelsohn, the director of general election resources for the British Labour Party was the deputy chairman.[8]'

Footnote 8 is the following article:

Which states: 'Mr Mendelsohn is one half of a “media power” couple. His 35-year-old wife, Nicola, is a close friend of Mr Brown’s wife, Sarah, and is the deputy chairman of the advertising agency, Grey London. She has won more than £100million of new business for Grey since she joined the agency.'

So; the sentence on Wikipedia is an incorrect version of the sentence in the above source. It was Nicola Mendelsohn who was deputy chairman of Grey London, not her husband Jon Mendelsohn. In fact, even Nicola Mendelsohn no longer works for the agency - she is now chairman and partner at Karmarama, and president of the IPA (source: )

JASpencer, I'm heartened to see your below opinion. Would love to help in removing the dross/updating relevant information (a proportion of which is out of date).

With best wishes and intentions.

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... it's a reasonablu important advertising agency. This should be stubbified with the dross removed and not deleted. --JASpencer (talk) 07:50, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
