Talk:Osnat Lubrani

Adding info on living person
Thanks to @Ponyo for advice on conflict of interest. The information was added by me on good faith towards the community and readers with disclosure on each edit that it was based on information from the subject of the article. The intention was to update and enrich the article, which is currently outdated and sparse. If appropriate, a conflict of interest statement could be added to the article itself. Other than having had message exchange with the subject to obtain the information and meeting her once, there is no particular relationship or dependence that needs to be disclosed of as another conflict of interest. I'm in your hands as to the best way to proceed. MakingItSimple (talk) 21:16, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Material added to articles must be neutral in tone, not unduly self-serving or promotional, and be supported by reliable sources independent of the subject. Wikipedia does not add content based on information provided from the subject themselves. Template:Edit COI/request explains how you can make a requested edit.-- Ponyo bons mots 21:24, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Edit request

 * Reason for the change: The information on the page is sparse and outdated. I suggest editors consider if the information fits and edited as needed, instead of categorically rejecting all additions, in order to enrich the page.
 * References supporting change: The existing URLs are still relevant for this information but this elaborates. View my last revision to see where the links were placed.
 * Specific text:
 * Osnat Lubrani (Hebrew: אסנת לוברני) is an Israeli and American United Nations international civil servant and diplomat. Serving in senior UN positions in developing countries affected by humanitarian or political crisis, her work has focused on advancing human rights, gender equality and transition to development, peace and social cohesion, including in Kosovo, Fiji and Ukraine.
 * Early life and education
 * Osnat Lubrani was born in Jerusalem and is the daughter of Israeli diplomat Uri Lubrani. She grew up in Uganda, Ethiopia and Iran. She graduated from Iranzamin International School in Teheran and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology & Anthropology and History of Africa from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a Masters in Film and Television Production from New York University, and a Masters in International Affairs from the School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University.
 * Diplomatic career
 * Lubrani served as the UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine from 2018 to July 2023. Alongside support to advancing the country’s development and EU integration aspirations, including combatting corruption and advancing rule and law, she oversaw humanitarian operations in conflict-affected eastern Ukraine’s Luhansk and Donetsk regions. In the aftermath of the Russian invasion in February 2022, she led the country-wide humanitarian scale-up to protect and support the refugee and internally displaced population, including the UN and Red Cross (ICRC) operation to evacuate civilians trapped in the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol.
 * Prior to her service in Ukraine, Lubrani was the UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative for ten Small Island Pacific States (Fiji, Kiribati, Nauru, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Federated States of Micronesia, Tonga, Marshall Islands and Vanuatu). In this role, she supported government-led humanitarian operations in response to natural disasters, supported Fiji’s 2014 transition to democracy from military rule, and facilitated Pacific SIDS leadership under Fiji’s COP23 presidency (2017), including a first $33 million grant from the Green Climate Fund to Tuvalu.
 * Lubrani was Development Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative in Kosovo between November 2009 and 2013 overseeing post-conflict recovery programmes to reintegrate ex-combatants, reorient rule of law work to focus on judicial education and women's access to justice; small arms control and community safety; combat corruption; and address gender-based violence.
 * Lubrani's earlier posts (in reverse chronological order) included Director of the Brussels Office of UNIFEM (a predecessor to UN Women), Regional Programme Director of UNIFEM for Central and Eastern Europe, based in Bratislava, Deputy UNDP Resident Representative ad interim in Skopje, Executive Officer for UNIFEM's Executive Director, as well as consultant on development and human rights in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (then Zaire).
 * Lubrani currently supports UN Women as ad interim Director of its Office in Geneva, also heading its humanitarian section to implement a humanitarian strategy adopted with UN Women’s entry as a full member of the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC).

 * The COI editor in their request stated The existing URL's are still relevant for this information and that the reviewer should view my last revision to see where the links were placed. However, due to the complexity of the additional information that you wish to add, a straight 1:1 carryover of those references is not possible. Thus to expedite your request, it would be helpful if you could provide the following information:
 * 1) Please state each specifically desired change verbatim, taking care to also provide the verbatim accompanying reference.
 * 2) The exact location where the desired claims and references are to be placed should be given.
 * 3) Exact, verbatim descriptions of any text and/or references to be removed should also be given.
 * 4) Reasons should be provided for each change.
 * In the section of text below titled Sample edit request, the four required items are shown as an example:

 1. Please remove the third sentence from the second paragraph of the Sun section:
 * "The Sun's diameter is estimated to be approximately 25 miles in length."

2. Please add the following claim as the third sentence of the second paragraph of the Sun section:
 * "The Sun's diameter is estimated to be approximately 864,337 miles in length."

3. Using as the reference:

4. Reason for change being made:
 * "The previously given diameter was incorrect."


 * Kindly open a new edit request below this reply post at your earliest convenience when ready to proceed with all four items from your request.

Thank you! Regards, Spintendo  03:28, 6 November 2023 (UTC)


 * I give up. Based on these instructions, particularly points 1-2, I understand that regardless of the COI mediation process, no information whatsoever which is provided by the subject of the page can be used, because a verbatim alternative source is always required. I consider this COI request therefore to be rejected.
 * Nevertheless, I will attempt to locate additional details from other sources (though expecting to find very little, as the subject is not a celebrity). I'll make edits based on such sources in the usual process, as other sources don't have COI and as I as an editor don't have COI, as I explained in the beginning of this section.
