Prematurely closed edit request
Hi HeartGlow. A few weeks ago you closed my 4-month-old edit request at Talk:Thoma Bravo as "answered." But actually only part of the request had been answered (by ); they left the rest for someone else to answer, but no one ever did. Would you mind taking another look at the request and implementing the rest of it? The request spent quite a long time in the queue and it would be great to finally close this chapter. (I tried pinging you earlier, but now realize that you were using your alternate account.) Thank you! MfrankTB (talk) 15:32, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , thank you for letting me know, what would you like me to change again?  Heart  (talk) 15:58, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your willingness to help here, HeartGlow! The following are the parts of the request that have not yet been answered (updated slightly due to factual details having changed and a new noteworthy event having occurred in the time since I first made the request back in November):
 * Lead section, first paragraph, second sentence: Update as follows - "Thoma Bravo has done over 300 software deals worth over $85 billion since 2003 and oversees a portfolio of over 40 software companies that generate some $15 billion in annual revenue and employ 45,000 people
 * ✅  Heart  (talk) 05:21, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Lead section, second paragraph, first sentence: Update as follows - In October 2020, Thoma Bravo was managing private equity funds representing over $70 billion in equity commitments.
 * ✅  Heart  (talk) 05:25, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * History section, fifth paragraph, first sentence: Remove this sentence, since this information is repeated in the following paragraph.
 * ✅ Removed second version.  Heart  (talk) 06:00, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * History section, fifth paragraph, third sentence: Remove the sentence about the acquisition of Frontline Education, as there is nothing unique about this particular acquisition among hundreds of similar deals that justifies inclusion in the History section.
 * ✅  Heart  (talk) 06:04, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * History section, sixth paragraph, first sentence: Add "Seth Boro" to the list of managing partners.
 * ✅ Added to first version. Citation not added, third party source required.  Heart  (talk) 06:01, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * History section, sixth paragraph, second sentence: Add "cybersecurity" to the first part of the sentence: "The company focuses on the application, infrastructure and cybersecurity software..."
 * History section: Add a new paragraph - "In October 2020, Thoma Bravo raised $17.8 billion for its 14th fund, setting a fundraising record for a tech-focused buyout fund. "
 * History section: Add a new paragraph - "In March 2021, Thoma Bravo's SPAC announced that it will take app software company ironSource public through a merger that values the business at $11 billion.
 * Investment funds section, second sentence: Update as follows - Since Thoma Bravo's establishment in 2008, it has raised 14 flagship private equity funds, its third Discover midmarket focused fund and its Explore Fund targeting small technology businesses.


 * Not encyclopedic.  Heart  (talk) 05:47, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much! MfrankTB (talk) 14:58, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello, I will have to pause this edit request for the time being, please bear with me. I will update you within the following week.  Heart  (talk) 05:28, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for starting to work on this, HeartGlow. I do hope you get a chance soon to add the remaining requested sentences to the History section, in particular the sentence about the ironSource merger, which was noteworthy due to the size of the deal and the use of the SPAC route.
 * I have two additional comments. First, there are two instances where you wrote that the Thoma Bravo website is insufficient as a source and a third-party source is necessary: listing the office locations as San Francisco and Chicago (source); and listing the managing partners - Holden Spaht was removed from the list despite being listed as a managing partner here. However, the company's website should be adequate as a source in these cases, per WP:ABOUTSELF.
 * And second, I see that removed the "Investment funds" section, explaining that the lists were "promotional and not encyclopedic." But such lists seem to be used by convention across most articles on private equity companies, according to WikiProject Private Equity (see here and here for the WikiProject's recommendations). I would think that rather than deleting the entire section, a better solution would be to clean up the lists and limit them to "sizeable or otherwise notable current or former investments," to quote WikiProject Private Equity. Thanks, MfrankTB (talk) 14:37, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , hello, due to the investment funds. I can not in good conscience readd the investment funds. Why do those particular transactions set them apart from any other donation as "notable." I will not readd this as I think I am not qualified to do so after admin removal, please submit another request if you wish to request to readd it.
 * As for the sources, I will reconsider later, have a good night!  Heart  (talk) 04:49, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I will readd sources, for the other edit requests, I run into the same problem as mentioned above, as with the rest of the article. Why are these transactions notable, this is not a banking website. Thank you,  Heart  (talk) 04:53, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for re-adding those sources, HeartGlow. I understand your hesitation to restore the investment funds, though these types of sections do seem to be standard for articles on other similar firms. I will take it up with the admin who removed it or with other editors who deal with private equity-related articles.
 * What remains, then, is adding the two sentences to the History section: the October 2020 item, which was noteworthy because it was a record-setting deal in the industry, as reported in the Wall Street Journal; and the March 2021 item, which was noteworthy because of the size of the deal and the use of the SPAC route - this event was also widely covered in the media. Thanks again, MfrankTB (talk) 20:10, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
