Talk:WE Communications

Request edit on 19 April 2013
I would like to request the following corrections to the article on <>'s behalf:


 * Services section, first paragraph; reference to Maloney & Fox as independent subsidiary ;
 * Services section, second paragraph; SXSW apps to promote Studio D

I’m Kate Benkoski, I work as a Communications Specialist at Waggener Edstrom Worldwide. I’d like to suggest two edits in the “Services” section. Since the merging of Waggener Edstrom and Maloney& Fox appears in the above "History" section, it is confusing to refer to Maloney & Fox as an independent subsidiary in the “Services section. May I suggest:

Waggener Edstrom has seven practice areas, including Healthcare, Public Affairs, Brand Strategy and Technology.[22][23] The firm's consumer work had sometimes been done in partnership with Maloney & Fox[24][25] once an independent subsidiary now fully merged with Waggener Edstrom.

The second suggested edit would be in the second paragraph. The SXSW apps were not created to promote on specific practice but rather as a more general promotion of the agency and our partners. As you can see from the coverage, no specific practice group is mentioned. May I suggest simply deleting the Studio D reference:

It also created mobile apps for the SXSW conference from 2011 - 2013.[33][34][35][36].

 * It's best to point out the error rather than propose alternative text, because it's difficult for us to compare the two versions. Unless of course the changes required are so drastic there is no other practical way to propose an overhaul where one is needed.


 * I've made most of the changes. PRWeek says it's a subsidiary and this is worth pointing out. Whether the subsidiary is "fully merged" is POV, but so was calling it "independent", so I've fixed that, as well as the Studio D reference. CorporateM (Talk) 04:38, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Not even a tiny row of Criticism in article?
Not even a tiny row of Criticism in article? Let's speak about of PR company of the Master of Embrace, extend and extinguish strategy, and aren't critique episodes?

I think stuff like this or worst...

GA status and gutting
It seems the article was mostly gutted in a few edits by a single user that was supposedly getting rid of old information. Whatever that means. Seems their only edits have been to this article also. I'd suggest either the content they removed is put back or the GA status is re-reviewed. Personally, I'd like to see the deleted information put back. Since it's not clear why it was removed in the first place. Plus, old information is still completely relevant to the article and subject. I'd also suggest a banner be placed on the article stating that it was edited by un-disclosed payed editor or whatever the proper banner is. If no one else does it, I eventually will. Thanks. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:18, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I just happened across this article looking at GA-status articles about PR firms, and I noticed the same thing with the gutting of the article. I agree with your take – seems like either revision or reassessment is due. Mary Gaulke (talk) 20:47, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
