Various edits edit

Hi Magnovvig, I disagree with your edits [1][2][3][4][5] because:

  • Wikipedia is not just a collection of all the things the newspapers print (WP:NOTNEWS): we have to exercise judgement in deciding what to include in articles, by giving WP:DUE weight to some stories at the expense of others.
  • Contrary to most newspapers, we can only write about living persons within the rules of WP:BLP. In light of this, I dispute that all the criminal past of Hwang is relevant to this specific article, despite the fact that the newspapers have brought it up continuously over the past days.

Ready to discuss more specific points if you wish. --JBchrch (talk) 16:18, 30 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Magnovvig, you are invited to discuss the article here instead of serving me COI notices. JBchrch (talk) 16:55, 30 March 2021 (UTC)Reply


@JBchrch: WP:BLP should not be used as a screen or to generate euphemisms. If Ross Ulbricht or Francisco del Junco (both are alive) can be labelled as criminal then why exclude Bill Hwang? Or does BLP have a policy of which I am unaware regarding rehabilitated criminals? As you yourself note "the newspapers have brought it up continuously over the past days".

Why bring "it up continuously over the past days"? Let me try to answer: The FINMA is relevant because Credit Suisse (a GSIFI btw) might need forceful help to adequately screen clients, a point made by the unnamed Delingpole (ref lbdt) in another one of your deletions.

And then we need to be careful that we aren't Template:Uw-whitewashing.

Magnovvig, RE BLP: yes newspapers have brought it up, but I think it's precisely for this reason that it should not colour our perception of what is appropriate from a BLP standpoint. If we had a dedicated page on Bill Hwang, I would have no issue with a mention of his criminal past. On a page about a family office of his (which only became notable when it failed to meet a margin call) we should just be careful. As the article currently stands (for later reference: [6]), I guess things are ok and I won't make a big fuss about it. RE FINMA: Any action the FINMA will take with respect to Credit Suisse will absolutely be relevant. I just think that FINMA acknowledging to a news reporter (it was not a public press release) that it has been notified of the situation and is looking at it (which is the normal course of action for any financial regulator) is WP:NOTNEWS material and need not be included in an article of this type. I'm open to being wrong, though, and for other editors to move the consensus in a different direction. --JBchrch (talk) 17:15, 30 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow editors, I have observed as this article was created over the past 24 hours & want to help in this discussion. In my view certain references to Hwang included in online newspaper citations should not always be included in pages on his family office (Archegos). These have been correctly removed from this page. I further agree that references to the Swiss watchdog have been removed correctly. I hope this is helpful Dobsonstar Dobsonstar (talk) 17:39, 30 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Big list of big companies going bust? edit

I only came across this company today. I am quite staggered how many big companies have bitten the dust in the last few years and wonder if one of the experts could not do a list with all companies worth more than 1 billion USD who became defunct. Carillion, wirecard, Greensill, Archegos is what pops in my head but there are many more I guess. What purpose that would serve I am not sure, but maybe a pattern emerges that can serve as a warning. 2001:8003:A070:7F00:E1CE:8FD5:B5B4:1BD4 (talk) 02:55, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
