Foundation Medicine
Hi Ceyockey! I noticed that you wrote the Foundation Medicine article and recently edited it to include the FDA approval of CDx. As you can probably tell from my username, I’m an employee of Foundation Medicine. First, thanks so much for the work you’ve put in to keep the article updated. Second, would you be interested in helping me expand the entry? I know this is a time-consuming ask and I’d work with you to make it as easy as possible. I’ve already pulled together news stories and uploaded a potential draft over in my userspace. I left a note on the article Talk page too, but since you’re already working on the article, I figured I’d reach out to you directly. Let me know what you think—would love to combine our efforts to flesh the article out. Thanks! Fmidan (talk) 20:47, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

Album cover mistake (leaving this on a few admin's pages)
I uploaded a new version of the Twenty One Pilots album at File:Twenty_One_Pilots_album_cover.jpg, but the reference didn't get processed properly. Can you please edit it so it displays correctly? — Preceding unsigned comment added by NMGWP (talk • contribs) 04:23, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

Broadridge Financial Solutions
Greetings Ceyockey, I see that earlier in the year you had made some good updates to the Automatic Data Processing article, and it inspired me to ask if you'd be willing to look at a proposed draft I have written for a related company, the ADP spinoff Broadridge Financial Solutions. I have a COI here: Broadridge is a client of my company, and they are keen to have a better article. As you can plainly see, the current one is not very good—the warning template is almost longer than the body of the article—and it has been this way for quite some time.

Context: a few months back, I had proposed some replacement material that other editors disliked; I eventually decided they were right, and went back to the drawing board. In late June, I returned with a new draft, however I haven't received any constructive replies as yet. (I explain more about why the new version is better on the article's talk page.) Since you have some adjacent experience here, I thought I would reach out to you. I won't edit the page directly, so I'm looking for someone to review. Let me know what you think. Best, WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 13:35, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for being respectful of the COI-related constraints of Wikipedia. I've added the article to my watchlist and will do some work on it in coming days.  No guarantees - sometimes there is not enough reliable material out there to support and article. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 22:39, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I'd appreciate it! I'm not concerned about there being enough RS to support a decent article; as you can see in the new proposed draft, there are sufficient sources to describe the company's history and its activities—not in great detail, but certainly more than a stub. No rush, and let me know what you think. WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 12:45, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * BTW, I should also point out: I went so far as to prepare a version of the draft that quotes directly from the sources I used, to remove any ambiguity and make it easier for a volunteer editor to check themselves. You can find that in my userspace here: User:WWB_Too/Broadridge_Financial_Solutions/sources_quoted. Let me know if you think it's helpful? Thanks again, WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 12:52, 18 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Ceyockey, glad to see you putting in some work on the article. I am curious, however, about your plans for future changes. While I'm not dead set on my words exactly being the ones that go into the page, there is a lot of well-sourced information I've put together in my draft that I think is important to give the full picture of Broadridge. Let me know what you're thinking, when you have the chance? Cheers, WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 18:55, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
 * One final message from me, then I'll leave you alone. It's my assumption you've added what you wanted to the page; my goal was to address the issues in the warning tag, which I felt my draft did. I think my next plan will be to try updating my proposed language around what you've added, but if you're still interested enough in the subject to review my draft and make enough changes to remove the warning template, let me know. Thanks, WWB Too (Talk &middot; COI) 02:44, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

Surnames
Hi Ceyockey, just wondered if you'd be able to help add some info to the Stallone and Rambo surname articles please? The former is currently formatted as just being the name of the family of Sylvester Stallone ("surname of a Hollywood family"). Can you add a description for the name of Southern Italian (Sicilian ) origin as well please? And the Rambo article lists it as an "American surname of Swedish origin", yet the Dictionary of American Family Names says it can be either Southern French or East German in origin.

 * &mdash;Curious about why you don't want to take these steps yourself. --User:Ceyockey ( talk to me ) 01:08, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm not good at paraphrasing, and presentation of articles is not a strong point for me. I've seen your edits to another article which was phrased and presented very well. I understand also if your busy with other articles. Theo Mandela (talk) 02:17, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
