History[edit]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The request was not specific enough. You may consider leaving your comments on the Talk page or escalating significant issues to the conflict of interest noticeboard.

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of MHR Fund Management, I would like to flag the last paragraph of this page (“In 2014, MHR failed to consummate… fallen to less than 25% of the 2014 value.”) as being poorly sourced.

According to Wikipedia’s list of reliable sources, there is no consensus regarding the reliability of the New York Post. The additional citations for that paragraph, Bloomberg[1] and Yahoo[2], do not mention MHR Fund Management and therefore possibly violate WP:NOR.

Please note that we are not otherwise commenting on the accuracy or completeness of the disclosure contained in this page.

Hi @NinaSpezz: thanks for the message. What exactly do you want changing on the page? It'd be useful to editors who review edit requests if you state clearly what you want to be changed in a format such as this:

- Change X to Y
- Reason: X is incorrect
- Sources: Z shows that Y is correct^{[insert reference here]}

Once you've done this, you can re-open the edit request by putting {{request edit}} above your new message, thanks. Seagull123 Φ 20:47, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Seagull123: Thank you for your note. I created and tagged a new edit request (below) with the specific ask that the paragraph in question be removed as it is poorly sourced. It has been three weeks since I revised the request and given the backlog of edit requests, was hoping you might review if you are able. NinaSpezz (talk) 16:59, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of MHR Fund Management, I am requesting the removal of the last paragraph of this page (“In 2014, MHR failed to consummate… fallen to less than 25% of the 2014 value.”) as it is poorly sourced.

According to Wikipedia’s list of reliable sources, the New York Post is considered "generally unreliable." The additional citations for that paragraph, Bloomberg[3] and Yahoo[4], do not mention MHR Fund Management and therefore possibly violate WP:NOR.

Done I agree that the NY Post is considered unreliable, the other sources did not support this claim and I don't think this information is notable. I also removed information about the Lions Gate hostile takeover because it did not implicate MHR in the scandal. I have added your declaration of paid editing to the top of this page and I am marking this ticket as closed. Z1720 (talk) 18:21, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
