Talk:Michael Meldman

Request for Updates
Hi - I'm looking for help updating the Michael Meldman article. Mr. Meldman is now the Founder and Chairman (not CEO) as Brett White was appointed CEO in early 2022. Also the article repeatedly refers to "Casamigos tequila" but the company name is "Casamigos Tequila" (upper case "T"). Finally, based on the IRS 990 forms the Discovery Land Foundation has contributed over $30 Million since 2007, which may be material to that section of the article.

Disclosure - I am a paid contractor for the Discovery Land Company, and would greatly appreciate any help in getting the article updated. If there is another forum or format that would work better, please let me know. DiscoveryLandWiki (talk) 14:13, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Greetings from WP:BLPN. Per a similar request there, I've removed the CEO wording at the request of the subject's apparent agent, but mostly because no reliable third-party source appeared to support it. In regards to your edit request, businesswire is categorically unreliable for WP:BLP content. See BLPN and WP:MOS for caps guidance. Government sources are primary, and are depreciated in favor of (or in conjunction with) at least one secondary source. Same goes for company tax filings listed on a third-party site: it remains a mere restatement of a primary source about the company because there's no in-depth non-numerical coverage that makes up something biographically significant about this human being. And nobody even cares about the corp charity unless some reliable third-party source indicates it's somehow biographically significant for this subject. Cheers. JFHJr (㊟) 03:00, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
