Oakland Skates

Requested edit: add section on 2026 ice hockey revival

== Requested edit: add section on 2026 ice hockey revival ==

Conflict of interest disclosure: I hold the Sponsors & Operations role with the new Oakland Skates ice hockey organization, so I have a declared connection to this subject per WP:COI. I'm proposing this addition here rather than editing the article directly. In 2026, the Oakland Skates name was revived for a new, unrelated-in-sport (ice hockey rather than roller hockey) semi-professional team based in Oakland, competing in the Mountain Hockey League. I'd like to propose adding a new section documenting this, sourced to an independent local news outlet (The Oaklandside) alongside the team's own website for basic factual details. The existing "Franchise history" content about the 1993–96 roller hockey team would be left untouched. Proposed section text below — happy to adjust based on feedback:

==Revival as an ice hockey team (2026)== In 2026, the Oakland Skates name and branding were revived for a semi-professional "Senior A" ice hockey team based in Oakland, California. The new team is a distinct organization from the original 1993–1996 roller hockey franchise but was created by its founders as an explicit continuation of the earlier team's identity and Oakland sports legacy. ===Founding and organization=== The team was founded by the Oakland Hockey Project, an Oakland-based nonprofit organization whose stated mission is to bring competitive professional and semi-professional hockey to the city. The project outlines a three-phase, multi-year plan: an initial "proof of concept" phase in 2025–26 built around exhibition games; a "momentum" phase beginning in 2027, when the Skates are set to join the Mountain Hockey League as a full expansion team; and a longer-term expansion phase, targeted for 2029, aimed at bringing a PWHL or ECHL franchise to the Oakland Coliseum. The team's co-founders are Cassidy Lavin (general manager), Daniel Witt (president), Shawn Shelby (head of operations), and Alan Duda (creative director). ===League and venue=== The Skates play their home games at the Oakland Ice Center and compete in the Mountain Hockey League (MHL), a Senior A men's hockey league describing itself as full-contact, NHL-regulation play rather than recreational-level hockey. The team's 2026 season is an exhibition season against existing MHL clubs, a status required of expansion teams before they are admitted as full league members; the Skates are scheduled to officially join the MHL for the 2027 season.

Thanks for taking a look. Happy to revise anything that doesn't read as neutral. Sookisookinow (talk) 17:12, 2 July 2026 (UTC) </wikitext> Sookisookinow (talk) 17:12, 2 July 2026 (UTC)

Open mic

Updating the 2013 open mic statistics citation with a current open dataset

I am the founder of GigXchange, which published the dataset cited below. The Music section currently sources the UK open mic statistic to "Open Mic Finder Statistics" (openmicfinder.co.uk), retrieved in February 2013 — a citation that is now over a decade old.

I would like to suggest referencing a current, openly published dataset. As of May 2026, the UK Open Mic Directory catalogues 872 active UK open mic venues across 82 cities, with structured fields including day of week, signup method and entry fee. It is published as an open dataset on Zenodo with a DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.20173301.

A possible addition to the Music section:

"As of 2026, an openly published directory catalogued over 870 active open mic venues across 82 UK cities."

The dataset also records day-of-week data, so it could additionally serve as an updated source for the existing statement about Thursday being the most common night.

I am disclosing my affiliation per WP:COI and am not editing the article directly. I would be grateful if an independent editor would review and place this if appropriate; the methodology is documented in the Zenodo record. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Naumaanzahid (talk • contribs) 14:20, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

The Order of Petrović Njegoš (Montenegrin: Orden Petrović Njegoš; Cyrillic: Орден Петровић Његош) is a dynastic order of the Royal House of Montenegro. It was founded in 1896 by King Nikola I to commemorate two hundred years of rule by the House of Petrović Njegoš, and is the most exclusive of the House's honours, being reserved for members of the dynasty and their kinsmen. Conferred in a single class and described by collectors as extremely rare, it ranks third in precedence among the three principal dynastic orders of the Royal House, after the Order of Saint Peter of Cetinje and the Order of Prince Danilo I.
 
Following the fall of the monarchy in 1918, the Order ceased to be a state decoration and is today conferred as a private house order under the fons honorum held by the Head of the Royal House of Montenegro. In 2011 the Parliament of Montenegro adopted the Law on the Status of the Descendants of the Petrović Njegoš Dynasty, recognising a non-political role for the Royal House in the cultural life of the country.

Requested changes

1. Remove the current section “Modern Claims and the Grand Ducal Succession”, because references [1]–[4] do not support its categorical claims.

2. Replace it with the proposed sourced text reproduced below.

3. Correct the “Family origins” section, distinguishing Bernardetto de’ Medici, son of Bartolomea Giugni, from Alessandro de’ Medici, later Pope Leo XI, son of Francesca Salviati.

4. Add the complete bibliographical reference to Francisco Acedo Fernández’s published book, including the relevant page numbers.

Oyster reef restoration

Adding a Netherlands entry to Examples by country

I work for Oyster Heaven and have a declared conflict of interest (disclosed on my user page). I'd like to propose adding an entry for the Netherlands under "Examples by country," covering an independently-documented oyster reef restoration project there.

Please add a new "Netherlands" subsection, positioned alphabetically within "Examples by country," containing the following text:

Proposed text:

Native oyster spats settle on these clay substrates in mobile nurseries. Once deployed in the sea, these hard substrates protect young oysters, and their increased surface area provides shelter and nursery grounds for other marine species.

A flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) restoration project has been underway since 2025 in the Veerse Meer, a brackish lagoon in the province of Zeeland. The project, known as Project Asta, is carried out by Oyster Heaven in collaboration with industry, government, and research partners. Restoration involves installing clay substrates, known as "Mother Reefs," pre-seeded with juvenile oysters, to provide a stable base for reef formation and habitat for other marine species. In 2025, around four million juvenile oysters were installed on these structures. According to Oyster Heaven's own monitoring, an estimated 9 million epifaunal organisms were inhabiting the developing reef by mid-season, and the project is intended to develop into a self-sustaining reef within approximately ten years, with progress tracked through diver video surveys, photogrammetry, and eDNA sampling.

A similar project using the same clay reef substrate. Project Luna, is under development off the Norfolk coast in England, with a planned deployment of around four million oysters by the end of 2027.

PA Consulting Group

Update the history section

Hi, I work for PA Consulting Group. The company recently announced a new CEO, and I would like to add the following sentence to the end of the 2015-present subsection of the History section:

• In 2023, Christian Norris was named as CEO.

Additionally, in the infobox, under Key people, I would like to replace Ken Toombs with Christian Norris as CEO.

Updates to Lead and History sections

Hello, I am requesting updates to the lead and the history sections of this article.

In the third paragraph of the lead, the second sentence says: "It operates in these industries from offices across the UK, US, Nordics and Netherlands." Please add Ireland to this list, so that the sentence reads:

• It operates in these industries from offices across the UK, Ireland, US, Nordics and Netherlands.

The source for this is: .

Next, In the last paragraph of the lead, it says: "The company is privately held with 65% of shares owned by Jacobs Engineering Group". Please change the name of this company to Jacobs Solutions, as that is now the correct name.

The name should also be changed to Jacobs Solutions in the 2015-present subsection of the History section where it says: "In November 2020, PA’s Board announced its recommendation to accept a proposal by Jacobs Engineering Group to acquire a 65% stake in PA."

Lastly, in the 2015-present subsection, in the paragraph that says: "Most recently, in November 2020, PA acquired San Francisco- and Boston-based Cooper Perkins, a technology development and engineering company.", please add the following lines to end of that paragraph:

• In 2022, they acquired Design Partners based in Ireland, and the Cambridge Group based in Chicago.

Update to infobox

Hello, I am requesting further updates to the article:

• In the infobox, please change the number of locations from 21 to 19 - this information is supported on the company's website in the fast facts section, and should fall under WP:ABOUTSELF: https://www.paconsulting.com/about.
• In the lead, in the second sentence of the second paragraph, it says: "It has also acquired seven specialist consultancies since December 2017...". Please change this to nine specialist consultancies, and delete the rest of the paragraph since the companies are not independently notable on Wikipedia. 7 of these are companies are already sourced in that paragraph, and the last 2 sources can be found here:
• In the history section, in the last paragraph of the 2015-present subsection, where it says that Will Lamb is the CFO, please change this to Guy Rudolph, as he replaced Will Lamb. .

References

Thank you for your help, Sunnyday825 (talk) 14:13, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Partly done The lead and infobox sections were updated. The information regarding Will Lambe was not changed, because it does not state that Will Lambe is the CFO, it merely states that he was appointed CFO in 2022, which is not factually inaccurate. Regards,  Spintendo  20:00, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Spintendo, thank you again for your help, and for cleaning up the article. It certainly appears to be much improved. Given that the non-neutral language has been deleted, would you consider removing the two tags that are currently on the page?

Regarding the CFO- you are correct, Will Lamb was in fact CFO for a time. In that case, would it be possible to update the text with the current CFO, Guy Rudolph, as well? You can find that information here.

I appreciate the time you are taking to improve the page. Sunnyday825 (talk) 11:10, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Disputed neutrality

Hi! My name is Victoria and I work for PA Consulting Group. I'm on Wikipedia to make suggestions for improving this article. The first thing I notice is the box at the top of the page that says "The neutrality of this article is disputed" plus another box under "Technology and innovation" that says "The neutrality of this section is disputed". I would like to take steps to address these concerns by flagging text I think could be removed, either because of low source quality or because there is no source at all.

At the start of the article, I suggest removing:

• "Today, PA employs more than 4,000 people globally."
  • This has no source.
• "PA works with organisations in seven industries: consumer and manufacturing; defence and security; energy and utilities; financial services; public services; healthcare and life sciences; and transport. It operates in these industries from offices in the UK, US, Ireland, Nordics and Netherlands."
  • The source is PA's website.
• "It is also a member of the United Nations Global Compact, a non-binding UN pact that encourages businesses to adopt sustainable practices, and the WePROTECT Global Alliance, a network of governments and companies aiming to tackle online child exploitation and abuse. PA produced the first two Global Threat Assessments for WePROTECT."
  • These facts are true but the sources are WePROTECT Global Alliance's website and United Nations Global Compact website and PA's website.
• "The company is privately held, with 65% of shares owned by Jacobs Solutions and the remaining 35% owned by current and former employees. Staff can buy shares during an annual share-trading period."
  • The source is PA's website.

Under "History", I suggest removing:

• (1970–1992): "Towards the end of the '80s, PA's management took the firm public. The Butten Trust, after an application to the courts in the UK, agreed to give 15% of its shares to its employees. However, the company changed its strategy after 1992 to one of staff ownership"
  • This has no source.
• (2015–present): "In October 2017, PA relocated its global corporate headquarters."
  • The source is PA's website.
• "In April 2018, PA's chairman, Marcus Agius, announced he would step down and assume the role of deputy chairman, with John Alexander replacing him. Alexander made the move from environmental and sustainability consultancy ERM, where he took the company through two rounds of private equity funding."
  • The source is PR Newswire.
• "In 2021, John Cala joined PA's business in the Americas. In 2022, PA appointed a new chief financial officer and chief information officer, and created new roles for a chief research officer, head of alliances, platforms and products, and head of markets. Chartered Accountant Will Lambe joined as CFO, moving from KPMG, while Kelly Olsen joined as CIO. Charlene Li, co-author of Groundswell and founder of Altimeter, became chief research officer. Rina Ladva joined the firm as head of alliances, platforms and products, making the move from Microsoft. And Tracey Countryman took on the role of Head of Markets, joining PA from Accenture."
  • The sources are PA's website and press releases.

There is probably more text that needs to be removed from the article, and I invite editors to do so. There are some facts I think should be added to this article, which I will work on, but for now I hope this helps get some of the non-neutral text off the page. Thanks! PAVictoria (talk) 11:01, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

Revenue and employee count

Hi again! The £785m revenue figure (based on this 2022 report) and 4,200 employee count in the infobox are outdated. This 2024 report says £752.9m for 2024 on page 5 and 3,895 for the total average number of employees on page 51. Based on this more recent source, can editors make £752.9m the Revenue in 2024 and 3,895 the employee count in 2024? Thanks! PAVictoria (talk) 19:48, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

 Done You might find some info to add here. STEMinfo (talk) 21:57, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

Updates for review

In my first request above, I tried identifying text I think should be removed because of low source quality. For this request, I am identifying a few facts I think may be relevant to add (or use as replacement text) as a way to improve the article:

• In 2025, The Times reported PA Consulting's innovation team based at its Global Technology and Innovation Centre sees "the majority of its revenues coming from Diageo, Procter & Gamble, Unilever, and major pharmaceutical companies".

• In 2025, Jacobs and PA Consulting were selected to lead the "digital transformation" of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.

• PA Consulting was among five award winners at the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority's annual supply chain event, being recognised in the "best example of applying creative and innovative solutions" category.

References

These are a few things that came to mind and I'll let editors determine if these should be used in the article. Thanks again! PAVictoria (talk) 19:08, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Partly done I added the customers and most of the sources to the operations section, without adding too much detail. I didn't add the award, since there's growing consensus to not add awards that are not notable enough to have their own articles, but I added the source to the operations section for the NDA client. STEMinfo (talk) 21:20, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

Jacobs

I have another suggestion I'd like to share, so editors can consider updating this article. In January 2026, Jacobs Solutions agreed to acquire the remaining ownership stake in PA Consulting. I can provide a couple sources for confirmation:

• Engineering News-Record says "Jacobs Solutions announced Jan. 5 that it has agreed to acquire the remaining ownership stake in PA Consulting, completing a transaction that expands the firm’s advisory and transformation services alongside its traditional engineering and program management work."
  • If additional context is helpful, the article also says "Jacobs said full ownership of PA Consulting will allow deeper integration of advisory and digital capabilities into its broader portfolio and accelerate growth in higher-margin consulting services tied to complex infrastructure and technology-driven programs."
• Reuters says "Engineering services provider Jacobs Solutions (J.N) said on Monday it will acquire the remaining stake it does not already own in UK-based firm PA Consulting for 1.216 billion pounds ($1.64 billion). Amid robust investments in AI infrastructure, Jacobs aims to utilize PA Consulting's services in providing additional client services, especially in high-growth and historically resilient sectors such as advanced manufacturing, life sciences and critical infrastructure, including energy and transportation."

Can editors update the history section with this development? Thanks again! PAVictoria (talk) 09:22, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

Jacobs updates for review

Hi again, I have an update for one of my pending requests (subject: Jacobs) that I'd like to share with editors for their consideration. In March 2026, Jacobs Solutions completed its acquisition of PA Consulting. I can provide a source for confirmation:

• says: "Accelerating its growth strategy to redefine the asset lifecycle, Jacobs has completed its acquisition of the remaining equity interest in PA Consulting, a leading innovation and transformation consultancy."
  • If additional context is helpful, the article also says: "The combined business will serve clients across sectors, including government and private organizations, supporting work from strategy and design through execution across major capital programs, digital innovation and operational change."
• says "Jacobs has completed its £1.2 billion acquisition of PA Consulting, taking full ownership of the innovation and transformation consultancy as part of a move to accelerate growth in digital and advisory services."

Can editors update the history section with this latest development? Thanks again! PAVictoria (talk) 14:58, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Leadership appointment

Hi @STEMinfo - thanks so much for your support and guidance on our latest update requests.

I have a further suggestion for improving the page accuracy to reflect the most recent changes at PA Consulting.

• (2015–present): In June 2026, Jiten Kachhela was appointed President of PA Consulting.
  • The sources are PA's website and Public Now.

Thanks! PAVictoria (talk) 08:38, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

 Done Press releases are usually discouraged as sources, but it's unlikely this would be unreliable. I couldn't find an independent source. I noted in the phrasing that the the source was a press release. STEMinfo (talk) 18:42, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

Hi @STEMinfo, I noticed a typo has been made when adding this update. Jiten's last name is spelt Kachhela (double 'h') as per my original request. Can you help correct the spelling? PAVictoria (talk) 16:51, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

I'm not sure how that happened. Fixed in the article and the infobox. In the future, minor typos and other uncontroversial edit corrections are ok for you to do yourself. STEMinfo (talk) 19:03, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

Update to revenue count

Hi @STEMinfo, hope you're having a good day - it's roasting hot here in the UK at the moment! Really appreciate your support and guidance so far on improving the page. The £752.9m revenue figure (based on this 2024 report) in the infobox is now outdated since my last request was actioned. This 2025 report says £767.6m for 2025 on page 5 and 3,859 for the total average number of employees on page 50. Based on this more recent source, I'd be really grateful if you could make £767.6m the Revenue in 2025 and 3,859 the employee count in 2025 to help further improve the accuracy of the page. Thanks! PAVictoria (talk) 11:19, 9 July 2026 (UTC)

Palm Beach Tan

Updates

• What I think should be changed (include citations):

Logo: is out of date, the new logo is black, company is also renamed to "Palm Beach Tan and Wellness" Founding date is incomplete, should be July 23, 1990, right now it just says "1990"

1. of locations needs to be updated, it is 640+ locations not 440+

Add "wellness" to industry section CEO and president should also be updated, it is out of date. PBT has also ramped up their recent marketing and did a big partnership with Zara Larsson, that should be included

• Why it should be changed:

Information is out of date and incomplete. Palm Beach Tan now has more services than just tanning, and has rebranded, so this current page reflects the company 10 years ago and does not provide accurate, update information.

Parental alienation

Activism section

I am the author of the Head (2026) source cited below and am therefore requesting review rather than editing directly. I propose adding the following paragraph to the end of the Society and culture section. The factual claims are sourced to the campaign organizers' own published account, and the opinion source is attributed in text per WP:RSOPINION. [paste paragraph] Roberth (talk) 22:22, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Your proposal:

Disagreement over parental alienation has extended into scholarly publishing. Researchers and organizations supporting the concept have formally requested the retraction of critical publications, including the 2021 edited volume Challenging Parental Alienation, which the publisher Routledge declined to withdraw; the campaign's organizers described the book as misinformation likely to harm children and families. In a 2026 opinion article in Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics, Keith Robert Head argued that these campaigns applied retraction processes designed for research misconduct to disputes over interpretation, while acknowledging that proponents regard them as efforts to correct misinformation they consider harmful.

My first thought is, is this representative of an ongoing issue? The Routledge/COPE episode alone may not be significant enough to support the addition, although you identify more examples in your essay which might be used to better support the claim.

That is, before inclusion I believe we need to establish that this is a pattern that is sufficiently notable for inclusion, and in that respect it would be helpful to include more examples of the pattern, and independent reliable sources that discuss the phenomenon.

My second thought is that we need to be careful to present this in an encyclopedic manner. If we are to include this, I am thinking of something more along the lines of,

Several proponents of parental alienation have sought retraction or withdrawal of publications critical of the concept. In 2023, Jennifer Harman and William Bernet described their unsuccessful effort to persuade Routledge and the Committee on Publication Ethics to withdraw the book Challenging Parental Alienation, which they characterized as containing misinformation likely to harm children and families. Similarly [additional examples given here.] In a 2026 opinion article, Keith Robert Head argued that these efforts used retraction mechanisms to address scholarly disagreement rather than the forms of research misconduct for which those mechanisms are designed.

Passages Malibu

COI edit request: update current operations and improve neutrality

I am requesting that independent editors review the proposed change below for neutrality, accuracy, and sourcing.

Request: Please consider adding a short “Current operations” section to provide more current, neutral context about the facility.

Suggested text:

Current operations

Passages Malibu is a private addiction treatment center located in Malibu, California. The facility provides residential treatment services and emphasizes individualized therapy focused on addressing underlying causes of substance use.

Reason: The article currently relies heavily on older sources and contains limited information about current operations. This proposed addition is neutral, factual, and does not remove existing criticism or controversy.

Please review the “Key people” field in the infobox for accuracy and update it based on current reliable sources.

Passages Malibu’s treatment philosophy emphasizes individualized therapy and identifying underlying causes associated with substance use. Media coverage has noted that this approach differs from traditional 12-step treatment models.

Please review the dead LA Weekly source in the “Controversy” section. If an archived version is available, please replace the dead link. If the claim cannot be verified through a reliable source, please consider removing or revising the claim.

Current wording: “Passages, and the treatment method it employs, have been the subject of controversy.”

Suggested replacement: “Passages Malibu has received media coverage regarding its treatment philosophy, pricing, refund policies, and prior litigation.”

I have a disclosed conflict of interest and am requesting review by an independent editor. I am requesting limited edits to improve accuracy, neutrality, balance, and sourcing. I am not requesting the removal of reliably sourced criticism. My goal is to help make the article more complete and proportionate by adding neutral background about Passages Malibu, its founders, and its treatment model, while also revising broad or negatively framed wording where more specific language would be appropriate.

Request 1: Add neutral context to the lead section

Location: Lead section, after the first sentence.

Requested sentence to add: Passages Malibu is known for offering individualized residential addiction treatment and for promoting a non-12-step treatment philosophy focused on identifying underlying causes associated with substance dependency.

Reason: The current lead provides limited neutral context about the facility’s treatment model. This sentence gives readers a concise overview of the facility’s stated approach without using promotional language or removing criticism.

Request 2: Add neutral background about the founders

Location: “History and founders” section, after the sentence identifying Chris Prentiss and Pax Prentiss as founders.

Requested sentence to add: Chris Prentiss and Pax Prentiss developed Passages Malibu after Pax Prentiss’s own experience with substance dependency, presenting the program as an individualized alternative to traditional 12-step treatment.

Reason: This adds relevant background about why the facility was founded and provides useful context for readers. The sentence is factual, concise, and directly related to the history of the subject.

Request 3: Revise biographical wording about Chris Prentiss for neutrality

Location: “History and founders” section.

Current wording: “Chris Prentiss is a former real estate developer with no formal training in rehabilitation or medicine.”

Requested replacement: “Chris Prentiss was a co-founder of Passages Malibu and an author whose work included books on addiction recovery, personal development, and wellness.”

Reason: The current wording presents a narrow and negatively framed description by emphasizing what Chris Prentiss lacked rather than neutrally summarizing his role in the subject of the article. The proposed wording is more biographical, relevant, and balanced. It does not remove criticism from the article or prevent sourced discussion of treatment philosophy elsewhere.

Alternative replacement, if the reviewer believes credential context should remain: “Chris Prentiss was a co-founder of Passages Malibu and an author whose work included books on addiction recovery and personal development. Media coverage has noted that he did not have formal medical or rehabilitation credentials.”

Reason for alternative: This version preserves the credential-related point while presenting it in a more balanced and attributed way.

Request 4: Update and clarify the infobox key people field

Location: Infobox, | key_people = field.

Current wording: Chris Prentiss; Pax Prentiss

Requested replacement: Pax Prentiss, CEO and co-founder; Chris Prentiss, co-founder

Reason: This keeps both founders listed while clarifying their roles. Pax Prentiss is the current CEO and co-founder, while Chris Prentiss was a co-founder. This improves accuracy without removing either founder from the article.

Request 5: Add neutral context about the treatment model

Location: “History and founders” section, after the sentence: “Passages relies on one-to-one therapy sessions.”

Requested sentence to add: The treatment model has been described in media coverage as an alternative to traditional 12-step programs, with an emphasis on individualized therapy rather than group-based recovery meetings.

Reason: This provides clearer context about how Passages Malibu’s approach differs from traditional treatment models. The sentence is descriptive, neutral, and does not make promotional claims.

Request 6: Rename the “Controversy” section for neutrality

Location: Section heading currently titled “Controversy.”

Current heading: “Controversy”

Requested replacement heading: “Media coverage and legal matters”

Alternative replacement heading, if preferred by the reviewer: “Media coverage, criticism, and legal matters”

Reason: The current heading is broad and negatively framed. A more specific heading would better summarize the section’s contents, which include media coverage concerning treatment philosophy, pricing, refund policies, advertising-related litigation, and allegations related to quality of care. The proposed heading does not remove criticism or sourced material; it simply gives the section a more neutral and descriptive title.

Request 7: Revise broad wording in the former “Controversy” section

Location: First sentence of the section currently titled “Controversy.”

Current wording: “Passages, and the treatment method it employs, have been the subject of controversy.”

Requested replacement: “Passages Malibu has received media coverage regarding its treatment philosophy, pricing, refund policies, advertising-related litigation, and allegations related to quality of care.”

Reason: The current sentence is broad and subjective. The proposed replacement is more specific and neutral because it identifies the topics covered by cited sources rather than generally characterizing Passages Malibu and its treatment method as “controversial.”

Request 8: Add balancing language before criticism of the treatment model

Location: Section currently titled “Controversy,” before discussion of criticism of Passages Malibu’s treatment philosophy.

Requested sentence to add: Supporters of Passages Malibu’s approach have characterized the program as individualized and non-12-step, while critics have questioned aspects of its philosophy, cost, advertising, and quality of care.

Reason: This sentence provides more balanced framing by acknowledging that the treatment model has both supporters and critics. It does not remove or minimize criticism, but it helps avoid giving undue weight to one perspective.

Request 9: Repair dead LA Weekly citation

Location: Section currently titled “Controversy.”

Requested change: Please replace the dead LA Weekly citation with an archived or currently accessible version of the same article, if available.

Reason: This improves verifiability for readers while preserving existing sourced material.

Request 10: Review proportionality of the article’s overall tone

Location: Entire article, especially the lead, “History and founders,” and the section currently titled “Controversy.”

Requested review: Please review whether the article gives proportionate weight to neutral background information compared with criticism and controversy. If appropriate, please add the neutral context requested above so the article better reflects both the facility’s history and the media coverage surrounding it.

Reason: The article currently contains critical material but limited neutral background about the facility’s founding, treatment model, and stated approach. Adding concise, sourced, non-promotional context would improve balance and neutrality without removing criticism.

Thank you for reviewing this request. ~2026-35392-92 (talk) 17:20, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Patrick Lamb (musician)

Edit request: replace 2013 infobox photograph with 2024 self-portrait

Hello. I am Patrick Lamb, the subject of this article, editing under my declared COI account. The current infobox photograph is from 2013 and no longer reflects my current appearance. I have uploaded a new portrait to Wikimedia Commons that I shot myself with a self-timer in 2024, released as own work under CC BY-SA 4.0.

I tried to make this change directly earlier today and UtherSRG correctly reverted it as a COI edit. I am now bringing it here as a proper edit request.

Requested change in the {{Infobox musical artist}}:

From:

| image = Saxophonist Patrick Lamb in Portland, 2013.jpg

| caption = Lamb in 2013

To:

| image = Patrick Lamb saxophonist 2024 portrait 01.jpg

| caption = Lamb in 2024

The new file is at File:Patrick Lamb saxophonist 2024 portrait 01.jpg. Three additional self-portraits from the same set are also on Commons as portraits 02, 03, and 04 if a reviewing editor would prefer a different image. The existing 2013 file remains on Commons and is not being requested for deletion.

Thank you for considering this. Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 01:49, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

Edit request: sources for two citation-needed tags in Billboard section

The two citation-needed tags in the "Billboard charting and SiriusXM Watercolors" section can be addressed from the following published sources.

For the claim that "Tailgate!" was added to SiriusXM Watercolors and was "Most Added" at smooth-jazz radio, the supporting source is the subject's official biography page at patricklamb.com/bio, which describes the track as added to SiriusXM Watercolors and "most-added to Billboard Radio." A contemporary post from the SiriusXM Watercolors and Patrick Lamb social-media channels also confirms the addition (https://www.facebook.com/patricklambmusic/videos/567402826299111/).

For the 2026 single "Horizon Line", the song is currently tracked on the RadioWave Monitor Groove Jazz 100 chart, where it is listed at No. 17 for the week of 26 May 2026 (https://www.radiowavemonitor.com/pub_charts/r100_7.aspx). The current article wording (No. 20 on RadioWave / No. 26 on SmoothJazz.com) is no longer accurate; the present radio position documented in published sources is the No. 17 figure on the Groove Jazz 100.

Suggested replacement wording for the two sentences currently tagged:

"Patrick Lamb's single 'Tailgate!' was added to SiriusXM Watercolors and was reported as 'Most Added' at smooth-jazz radio. His 2026 single 'Horizon Line' reached No. 17 on the RadioWave Groove Jazz 100 chart in the week of 26 May 2026."

Edit request: year of birth — published source identified

The article currently triggers the hidden category "Year of birth missing (living people)". The subject's date of birth is published on his Apple Music artist page (https://music.apple.com/us/artist/patrick-lamb/30772273) as "May 4, 1970".

Proposed addition to {{Infobox musical artist}}:

| birth_date = {{birth date and age|1970|5|4}}

(No change to birth_place.)

If a reviewer prefers to add only the year rather than the full date, the alternative is:

| birth_date = 1970

Either change will clear the "Year of birth missing (living people)" hidden category.

Edit request: biographical additions to Early life and Touring sideman work

Three small biographical additions, all sourced primarily to self-published material per WP:ABOUTSELF (non-controversial facts about the subject, not unduly self-serving):

1. First saxophone teacher (Early life and education). The subject's existing Apple Music for Artists Q&A bio names his first saxophone teacher. Proposed addition to the Early life section, after the sentence about Stan Getz and Wayne Shorter influences:

"Lamb was first introduced to the saxophone by Robert Ernst, the band teacher at Cedar Park Middle School in Portland."

2. Specific tenures with Vannelli and Caldwell (Touring sideman work). The current paragraph lists Gino Vannelli and Bobby Caldwell as flat generic credits. The subject's own Facebook artist page (@patricklambmusic) specifies two tenures that more accurately reflect the relationships: eighteen years with Vannelli and eight years in Caldwell's band. Proposed revision (insert one sentence after the Diane Schuur sentence, then tighten the flat list):

"Lamb spent eighteen years touring with Gino Vannelli and eight years as part of Bobby Caldwell's band. He has also toured or recorded with Smokey Robinson, Esperanza Spalding, the Jeff Lorber Fusion, and Jason Scheff, the lead vocalist of Chicago from 1985 to 2016, and shared concert stages with Bobby Kimball of Toto, Tommy Thayer of Kiss, Robby Krieger of The Doors, Sebastian Bach, Danny Seraphine of Chicago, and Alice Cooper, among others."

This combines (a) the new Vannelli/Caldwell tenure language and (b) the Jason Scheff addition into one tightened sentence; existing citations to the GigRoster and All About Jazz sources still apply to the shared-stage list.

If a reviewer prefers a more conservative formulation, the minimal change is to insert "Jason Scheff (lead vocalist of Chicago, 1985–2016)" into the existing sideman list and leave the rest unchanged.

Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:55, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

Follow-up — better sources identified, plus the Chris Botti connection. Since posting the section above I have located two stronger published sources for the Robert Ernst paragraph: a Portland Tribune Q&A (2013) and an International Musician (AFM magazine) cover profile (Feb 2014). Both quote the subject directly on his start on the saxophone, and both include a notable detail that I should have included in the original request — the same teacher had previously taught Chris Botti.

Quote from Cullivan (Portland Tribune, 2013): "I didn't start playing until 1983 when I moved to Portland and enrolled late at Cedar Park Middle School and enrolled in beginning band with Mr. Robert Ernst. Mr. Ernst also taught (recent Grammy winner) Chris Botti before me."

Quote from International Musician (Feb 2014): "After Lamb's father completed his doctorate at the University of Texas, he took a job in Portland, Oregon, and that's where Patrick Lamb began his formal music education at Cedar Park Middle School. 'The beginning band teacher [Robert Ernst] was the same beginning teacher that [Local 802 (New York City) member] Chris Botti had,' says Lamb."

Revised proposal for the Early life section (replaces the Apple-Music-cited version above):

"Lamb began playing saxophone in 1983 after his family settled in the Portland area, enrolling in beginning band at Cedar Park Middle School in Beaverton, Oregon, under Robert Ernst, who had previously taught Chris Botti."

Three changes vs. the original request: (1) the Apple Music citation is replaced with two independent secondary sources (Portland Tribune and the AFM's International Musician), (2) the previously-omitted Chris Botti detail is now included with sourcing, and (3) the school's municipality is given as Beaverton (Cedar Park is in the Beaverton School District) rather than the colloquial "Portland" used in the sources.

Edit request: add Bobby Caldwell quote to Critical reception

The Critical reception section currently cites Todd Barkan and Dave Koz, both sourced to the subject's official press page (patricklamb.com, existing reference #14). A third blurb on the same press page is attributed to Bobby Caldwell. Proposed addition to the Critical reception section:

"Bobby Caldwell, with whose band Lamb toured for eight years, called him 'one of the best instrumentalists I've ever worked with.'"

This uses the same patricklamb.com/press source as the existing Barkan and Koz quotes. If a reviewer prefers a stronger origin, the quote also appears in EPK materials issued under Patrick Lamb Productions; happy to provide the alternate citation on request.

Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:55, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

Edit request: add detail to White House section

The White House (1996 and 1997) section is well-sourced. One small factual detail the subject recalls from those performances — that he was introduced to President Clinton during the holiday Congressional VIP Tours — is not yet in the article. As with the existing Lauderdale companion detail (currently noted in footnote a as "Lamb's recollection ... not independently corroborated in published sources"), this would be a recollection-only detail.

Proposed sentence, with the same note-style caveat as the Lauderdale footnote, appended to the White House paragraph:

"During the 1996 and 1997 performances, Lamb was introduced to President Clinton."

If a reviewer would prefer not to add recollection-only material, please disregard this section.

Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:55, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

Edit request: residence, external link, and Portland venue history

Three small surface additions:

1. Palm Beach, Florida residence — lead or origin. The article is already in Category:Musicians from Palm Beach County, Florida but the prose still reads "Origin: Portland, Oregon" with no mention of the subject's current Florida residence. Proposed minimal addition to the lead, after the OMHF / Muddy Award sentence:

"Lamb is based in Palm Beach, Florida."

(The Apple Music artist page lists his current location. If a reviewer prefers the WP:ABOUTSELF standard be met by a different source, patricklamb.com also lists Palm Beach as his current base.)

2. Spotify external link. The External links section currently includes Billboard, All About Jazz, Apple Music, Bandsintown, and Wikimedia Commons, but no Spotify link, which is the largest streaming source for the subject's catalog. Proposed addition:

* {{official|1=https://open.spotify.com/artist/3qR6sqXnnwZm3tLed2CO35 |2=Patrick Lamb at Spotify}}

(Or as a plain link if the {{official}} template is not preferred for streaming services.)

3. Jimmy Mak's anchor relationship — Solo career. The subject was historically a regular saxophonist at Jimmy Mak's, the long-running Portland jazz club, and a personal friend of the owner Jimmy Makarounis until Makarounis's death in 2016. Proposed addition to the Solo recording and performance career section, if a reviewer can identify a sourceable mention (suggestions: Oregonian obituary for Jim Makarounis, Willamette Week coverage of Jimmy Mak's closing). I do not yet have a published secondary source to cite; flagging here for any reviewer who may have better access to Portland-area press archives. If no source can be found, please disregard this third item.

Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:55, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

Follow-up: a published source has now been found for the Jimmy Mak's item (item 3 above). When I posted this section I did not have a secondary source for the Jimmy Mak's connection. I now do. The Portland Radio Project article "Jimmy Mak and the Language of Music" (January 4, 2017) is an interview-based piece in which the club's owner, Jimmy Makarounis, recalls that the first act to play Jimmy Mak's when it opened was Patrick Lamb. A possible sentence for the Solo recording and performance career section is: "Lamb was the first act to perform at the Portland jazz club Jimmy Mak's after it opened in 1996," with a citation to "Jimmy Mak and the Language of Music". Portland Radio Project. January 4, 2017.. It could also be linked to the existing Jimmy Mak's article. I still do not have an independent secondary source for the separate point that the ticketing company handled the club's ticketing, so please leave that part out for now. Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:33, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Edit request: remove two leftover drafting notes from the article body

Two small cleanup items. Both are leftover drafting notes that should not be in the finished article.

The first is in the Discography section. It currently ends with the sentence "A complete discography may be reconstructed from Lamb's MusicBrainz and Apple Music profiles once entered by the editor." That sentence is a note to editors, not article content, so please remove it. The list of selected singles above it is fine to keep.

The second is footnote a in the Notes section. It currently says the Lauderdale detail "is not independently corroborated in published sources reviewed during research for this draft (April 2026); editors are encouraged to seek additional sourcing." The wording about research for the draft is left over from when this was a draft. Please change that footnote to read: "The 1996 accompanist Ed Bisquera is corroborated by The Rocket. Lamb's recollection of Thomas Lauderdale as his 1997 accompanist is not independently corroborated in published sources."

Thanks for considering these. Updatepatrickfacts (talk) 04:20, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Paul A. Lombardo

Edit request: update faculty title to Emeritus

I am the subject of this article. Per WP:COI, I am requesting the following edits be reviewed and made by an independent editor rather than editing the article directly.

1. Update faculty title to emeritus status

Current text: "He joined the faculty at Georgia State University College of Law in 2006, where he is currently a Regents Professor and the Bobby Lee Cook Professor of Law."

Proposed text: "He joined the faculty at Georgia State University College of Law in 2006, where he is currently a Regents Professor Emeritus and the Bobby Lee Cook Professor of Law Emeritus."

Sources: Georgia State University College of Law faculty profile (lists title as "Professor Emeritus, Regents' Professor and Bobby Lee Cook Professor of Law"); Greenwall Foundation Faculty Scholars Program Committee page (lists title as "Regents Professor Emeritus" and "Bobby Lee Cook Professor of Law Emeritus").

2. Remove outdated word "recently"

Current text: "He testified as an expert witness in Lowe v. Atlas, a landmark federal genetic discrimination case, and his work was recently cited in a U.S. Supreme Court opinion, (Kristina Box, Commissioner, Indiana Department of Health, et al. v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, Inc., et al (587 U. S. ____ (2019))"

Proposed text: "He testified as an expert witness in Lowe v. Atlas, a landmark federal genetic discrimination case, and his work was cited in a U.S. Supreme Court opinion, (Kristina Box, Commissioner, Indiana Department of Health, et al. v. Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky, Inc., et al (587 U. S. ____ (2019))"

Reason: The citation is from 2019 and is no longer "recent"; the word is now inaccurate/stale.

3. Remove outdated phrase "In recent years"

Current text: "In recent years he has lectured in England, Austria, Italy, Russia, Pakistan and Canada, and at dozens of colleges and universities in the U.S."

Proposed text: "He has lectured in England, Austria, Italy, Russia, Pakistan and Canada, and at dozens of colleges and universities in the U.S."

Reason: The lecturing described is no longer recent; the time-relative phrase is now inaccurate/stale.

4. Add new sentence on Greenwall Foundation appointment

After the sentence ending "...a group of more than 200 individuals of outstanding accomplishment whose work has informed scholarship and public understanding of complex ethical issues in health, health care, science, and technology.", add: "In 2026 he was named to the Faculty Scholars Program Committee of the Greenwall Foundation."

Source: Greenwall Foundation Faculty Scholars Program Committee page.

5. Add new sentence on 2024 NEJM publication

In the Career section, after the second paragraph, which currently ends: "Lombardo also published an edited volume: A Century of Eugenics in America: From the Indiana Experiment to the Human Genome Era (2010).", add: "In 2024 Lombardo published an assessment of the New England Journal of Medicine's own historical coverage of eugenics, "Recognizing Historical Injustices in Medicine and the Journal: 'Ridding the Race of His Defective Blood' — Eugenics in the Journal, 1906–1948.""

Source: Lombardo PA. Recognizing Historical Injustices in Medicine and the Journal: "Ridding the Race of His Defective Blood" — Eugenics in the Journal, 1906-1948. N Engl J Med. 2024;390:869-873. Link.

Pearl.com

COI Edit Request

I’m making this paid edit request on behalf of Pearl.com. I am proposing the following edits for neutrality, clarity, and closer alignment with existing sources.

Extended content

Lead — replace current text with:

Pearl.com is an AI platform for professional services that combines AI-generated answers with human fact-checking and access to experts. The platform connects users with professionals in areas such as healthcare, law, finance, technology, and automotive services. It uses artificial intelligence (AI) to route questions and relies on human experts to review and provide responses.

History — replace history with:

The company was founded in 2003 by Andy Kurtzig as JustAnswer. Kurtzig had previously built and sold a company called Anser, which automated the creation of classified advertisements for newspapers. By about 2012, JustAnswer offered customers a forum for posing questions to lawyers, healthcare professionals, computer technicians, and relationship counselors.

In 2012, the company raised $25 million in a funding round led by Crosslink Capital and Glynn Capital, bringing total funding to more than $50 million. By 2014, the company changed its operations to comply with regulations.

Over time, the company evolved from a single marketplace into a broader platform model. The Pearl.com brand was introduced as part of this expansion, representing the platform’s infrastructure for AI-assisted professional services across multiple domains.

By the mid-2020s, the platform integrated AI-driven systems to generate responses, route queries, and coordinate independent professionals, with human verification processes in regulated fields such as healthcare, law, and finance.

COI Edit Request (Revised)

I am making this paid edit request on behalf of Pearl.com. This request is a revision of a previously declined request. I have reduced the number of citations throughout the proposed text and retained only the sources supporting each statement.

Personal financial management

The first home finance software application

Disclosure: I am the son of Gerald Rubin (founder of MECA Software) and a former developer at the company.

Specific Change 1 (Correcting the Origin Date/Company): Please change: "PFM started in 1983 with the founding of Intuit. Scott Cook and Tom Proulx, the company's founders, witnessed the rise of the personal computer and saw an opportunity to develop personal financial software."

To: "Modern PFM software emerged in the early 1980s. In early 1984, Micro Education Corporation of America (MECA) (a subsidiary of Marketing Corporation of America), led by Gerald Rubin, released its flagship product, Andrew Tobias' Managing Your Money (MYM). Andrew Tobias announced the software's release on the Today Show on March 19, 1984, and initial distribution began that month (documented in Compute! Magazine, Dec 1985, p. 134). Intuit's Quicken (originally Kwik-Chek) followed later that year, with a launch scheduled for October 1984 (Inside Intuit, Taylor & Schroeder, p. 28)."

Specific Change 2 (Adding Technical Innovation): Please add the following text after the mention of MYM: "The development of MYM was notable for its use of a proprietary language called SEESAW (System Elegantly Enmeshing Screens And Worksheets). Created by Steve Wagar and Jim Russell, SEESAW allowed a user interface layer to sit directly atop a spreadsheet engine, enabling complex relational logic across different modules of the application. This technical environment served as an early training ground for several industry leaders, including Rob Glaser, who was approximately the 250th employee at Microsoft before founding RealNetworks."
