Talk:Ian McLeod (businessman)

Suggested edits to support compliance with BLP policy (and Neutral Point of View)
Posting in response to @Oshwah's invitation to discuss edits on the Talk page. Thanks for encouraging the discussion - I’m new to editing and noticed a few things when reading this page which compelled me to make edits.

Reviewing the previous edits, it looks like an entire section was created by a user whose edits were removed for vandalism reasons – I think that perhaps more could have been removed initially, as it is not written from a neutral point of view, and also contravenes the policies around biographies of living people.

Not only is there uncited material, but the citations that are included, do not match the content that is written – which is the case for the Reuters reference that was mentioned when I tried to make changes.

The cited Reuters article, does not draw a correlation between Ian McLeod’s tenure at Southeastern Grocers and the bankruptcy filing (which looks like they occurred months apart based on the citations), so I don’t believe the Wiki article should either.

In fact, the cited Supermarket News article (Citation 9), includes a statement from the company which states that it made '“substantial progress on our transformation plan and established great momentum,” under McLeod' – and this is not included in the Wiki article.

For these reasons, I think the article is not written from an NPOV or in line with the guidelines for BLPs and the section should be removed. Ginjabelle (talk) 08:32, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
