User:Consultable

This is the Wikipedia user page for Paul Jacobs.

I am an independent marketing and communications professional, based in the UK, helping businesses with creative and strategic projects, trading as Consultable. My key areas of expertise and the bulk of my work is in the legal and financial services industries.

In the course of my work, I am occasionally asked to verify, edit and even create Wikipedia entries for organisations or individuals. I will always make it clear to clients that any editing of Wikipedia is bound by its terms of use and will make any such edits accordingly. Any editing or entries that I make for which I may be directly or indirectly compensated will be identified as such in the associated talk page or edit summary.

Second only to my interest in maintaining the neutrality of Wikipedia entries is one in improving the quality of writing. I am a generalist with many and diverse areas of interest (cricket, Hemingway, videography, Elvis Costello, Champagne to name a handful) but few of genuine expertise. So, my editing is more likely to result in a repositioned apostrophe than adding significantly to the wonderful breadth of knowledge that Wikipedia contains. Similarly, I speak a bit of French, but probably not enough to be genuinely useful here.

So, I will generally leave the hard facts to the true experts and busy myself with the housekeeping.
