James Sexton (attorney)

Request: Updates based on Times of London profile

Note: This is a reposting of archived edit request that was not answered.

Hi editors, on behalf of James J. Sexton via my work at Beutler Ink, I am here to offer some updates to this article. I'd like to start by updating the article based on this profile piece in The Times of London.

Infobox

• Add birthdate: 1972
  • Note: The source material verifies Sexton's age at the time of publication; Mr. Sexton has confirmed he was born in 1972. For what it's worth, the introduction also says 1972.
• Add this citation to verify number of children

Career

• Add: He published his first book on marriage and divorce in 2018, originally titled If You’re in My Office, It’s Already Too Late in the U.S. An updated edition was published in the U.K. as How Not to F*** Up Your Marriage: Straight Talk from a Divorce Lawyer Who's Seen It All.
• Add: As of 2025, he has practiced as a divorce lawyer in New York for 25 years. He is known for representing wealthy clients, including tech executives, celebrities, and athletes. He has represented clients in more than 1,000 cases involving marital disputes.

Personal life

• Add a Personal life section with the following: Sexton is divorced with two adult sons, as of 2025. He trains in Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Thank you. Danilo Two (talk) 12:54, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

@Danilo Two, I was going to look into this one for you, but your source here is paywalled. Can you please provide quotes for the date of birth and "divorced with two adult sons"? Thanks, MediaKyle (talk) 21:09, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

@MediaKyle: Thanks for taking a look here. I see you removed the date of birth from the infobox, which I understand. Here are quotes from the news article I referenced for the other parts of my request:

• Personal life:
  • "Sexton has seen it all, including the demise of his own marriage over a decade ago. He has two sons in their twenties and the eldest, Noah, 28, is getting married in two weeks."
  • "James Sexton is a New York-based divorce lawyer to billionaire tech bros, film stars and elite athletes. On his website there’s a promo film setting the tone of his legal services: the 53-year-old appears in Brazilian jujitsu robes and floors a guy as his narration informs us: 'Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.' "
• Book: "He first published the book in 2018, the year TikTok became the most downloaded app in the US. … The book has been updated to reflect these trends and it has also been renamed. In America it came out as If You’re in My Office, It’s Already Too Late, but his UK publishers suggested How Not to F*** Up Your Marriage."
• Career information:
  • "He has been practising for 25 years."
  • "Sexton has acted in more than a thousand marital disputes ..."
  • " 'It amazes me that [in the US] 85 per cent of divorcees get remarried within five years,' he says. 'That’s why I’m still a romantic: I’ve represented teachers and cops, billionaire tech people, famous athletes and actors, but we are fundamentally all the same. We all suck at love but we all keep plugging away because we want to be with someone.' "

Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks Danilo Two (talk) 17:06, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

 Done. Looks good to me. "Known for representing wealthy clients" might be out of place anywhere else but in this case it seems warranted. I'm not going to be a stickler about the year of birth since it was already there, but a better source would be ideal, if you could come up with one that explicitly states the year. You already know how I feel about personal information on BLPs. The place of birth could really use a reference too if you can provide one, but I'm not going to remove it, at least not at this point. Thanks for your request, you do a good job at making it easy for us. All the best, MediaKyle (talk) 17:32, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

@MediaKyle: I appreciate your reviews, feedback, questions, and collaboration. Many thanks. I am going through some other sources to see if there are any other potential updates that can be made here. Danilo Two (talk) 20:17, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Request: Updates based on The New Yorker and Los Angeles Magazine

Note: This is a reposting of archived edit request that was not answered.

Hi editors, on behalf of James J. Sexton via my work at Beutler Ink, I am requesting updates to Career based on two articles, The New Yorker and Los Angeles Magazine. This addition contains appearances on different podcasts by James Sexton and the launch of his website TrustedPrenup.com.

Career

• Add: Sexton has appeared on podcasts such as Lex Fridman, Soft White Underbelly, Modern Wisdom, The Diary of a CEO, and The Huberman Lab. In 2025, he launched TrustedPrenup.com with the aim of making prenuptial agreements accessible to a wider public, after years of working on contracts for wealthy clients.

References

Thank you. Danilo Two (talk) 21:06, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

 Done. I could access the sources this time. Everything checks out, I've added this as written. MediaKyle (talk) 21:14, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

Thanks, MediaKyle! Danilo Two (talk) 12:53, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Request: Add podcast

On behalf of James Sexton via my work at Beutler Ink, I asking editors to consider adding Sexton's podcast, Better Call Sexton, to the Career section, per CNN.

Nasser Khalili

Edit request

I'm currently part of a GLAM Partnership that involves the Khalili Collections. Because of my COI, I've only been making minor edits to the article. Now that I have a major edit to suggest, I'm proposing it here.

At the moment Khalili's philanthropy and his honours and awards are included under the heading "Personal life". This is unusual for a Wikipedia biography: honours and awards are normally a top-level section. Personal life is normally the section to mention the subject's family, where they've lived and so on. Nothing in the present "Personal life" section is what would normally be considered personal life. Philanthropy is a very public part of this subject's life — it's a main reason this person is notable — so it would be better in its own section. So I suggest: 1) Recognition be promoted to a level 1 heading, within which Honours & awards is a subsection. 2) The heading Personal life is replaced by Philanthropic work, where the existing Philanthropic work subsection is followed by the text below, and the subheading for Maimonides Interfaith Foundation is removed:

A panorama of Jerusalem from the House of Peace series

Khalili founded the charitable Maimonides Interfaith Foundation in 1995 to promote "understanding, cooperation and peace between Jews, Christians and Muslims internationally through art, culture and education". In the 1990s, he commissioned a series of five paintings by the artist Ben Johnson called the House of Peace to promote "peace and harmony" between Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The foundation also donated thousands of copies of The Timeline History of Islamic Art and Architecture (Visions of Splendour) written by Khalili himself, to schools in the United Kingdom and Islamic countries.

Interfaith Explorers is a six-week programme for children in the final year of primary school, promoting tolerance by teaching them about Abrahamic religions. Supported by UNESCO, the course is freely offered to schools and supported by a bank of four hundred online videos. It was launched at the Regent's Park Mosque and mentioned in a speech by Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks as an example of a group promoting interfaith understanding.

Faith in the Commonwealth is a global citizenship education project started jointly by the Commonwealth and the Khalili Foundation. It gives Training of Trainers workshops to people from the ages of 15 to 29 from different faith backgrounds, including those of no faith. Over multiple days of training, participants discuss and challenge their assumptions around faith, culture, identity and gender and are supported in developing social action projects within their communities. These projects address topics such as hate speech, girls' education, and indigenous people's rights. The workshops began in December 2017, taking place first in Nairobi, in Trinidad and Tobago, and in Dhaka where it was opened by Biren Sikder, then Bangladesh's State Minister for Youth and Sports.

The project also offers a global citizenship education (GCED) toolkit: a peer-reviewed course that university students can take to complement their studies. This has been developed by three universities in Commonwealth countries, working with the Commonwealth Secretariat. It covers eight global issues in the context of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Commonwealth Secretary-General Patricia Scotland promoted the project during a 2020 trip to Malaysia, advocating it as in line with the government's policy of Rahmatan lil Alamin or 'mercy to all creations".

The Global Hope Coalition is a network of three not-for-profit organisations. Nasser Khalili is the chair of Global Hope Europe, while Deborah Lehr chairs Global Hope USA and Li Yongjun chairs Global Hope Asia. Irina Bokova, former Director of UNESCO, is the coalition's honorary president. The coalition was founded in 2016 and gives annual awards to political leaders and "everyday heroes" who combat extremism and intolerance. Among those who have been recognised are Nigerian feminist writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, South Sudanese artist and actor Emmanuel Jal, and Canadian technology entrepreneur and philanthropist Jim Estill.

We meet again! Unfortunately, your request cannot be implemented exactly as requested because:

• One of your references is broken—FTMay12 goes nowhere.
• I am not sure that the changes are all good. They seem overly WP:PROMOTIONAL, and the first sentence seems to violate WP:MISSION, when the previous one did just fine.
• "Faith in the Commonwealth", et cetera, should not be italicized per MOS:ITALICS.
• "Interfaith Explorers" seems to not be written in a way that's neutral. Not everyone believes that religion per se promotes tolerance, I'd say that the idea that actually learning about religion promotes intolerance is a significant minority (atheist) viewpoint, so we can't just say that it works. (I'm a Christian, personally, but it just strikes me as not neutral.)

Cite 6 doesn't include the word tolerance, but the juxtaposition makes it seem like UNESCO is saying religious education supports tolerance. Why is the royal family being left out, when they seem to be the most enthusiastic supporters?

• I don't know that "Faith in the Commonwealth" deserves this much weight. Certainly some, but this article is about Khalili, not it; we don't need to know where every workshop has been over the years nor who opened it in Bangladesh.
• Likewise, I don't know that it matters who the other presumably (due to them not having articles) non-notable chairs of the "Global Hope Coalition" are.
• Why do we need Rahmatan lil Alamin? Seems like an unnecessary foreign term. Why is it capitalized when translation isn't? Wikipedia:Writing better articles § Use other languages sparingly
• I think "everyday heroes" needs so-called before it.

I also have some general comments about the article. This person is obviously very, very notable. However, it seems like he's never done anything wrong in his life. Where did his money come from? Perhaps Karl Marx has had too much influence on me, but I find it hard to believe that unless someone played the lottery (or the stock market from a small amount of money, I suppose), they made a billion dollars without upsetting anyone or doing something unethical. Is it inherited? I'd expect this information to be in § Financial, which probably should be called § Finances.

My second comment is about the lack of a photo. File:Wikimedia UK Khalili Collection partnership.webm seems to have one, though, so that ought to be easily remedied, take a screenshot of it and use a template similar to {{c:Template:YouTube CC-BY}}. If not, ask Mr. Khalili for a photo for his bio. You can, right? Not sure if you've ever met him, or if you're just being paid indirectly through his foundation.

@MartinPoulter: I also slightly changed the organization of the article from what you requested. Please let me know when you reply where you want the text given the new organization. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 09:28, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

@Psiĥedelisto: Thanks a lot for your work on this. You make some valid points and you've definitely improved the article with the restructure. Some of my detail was excessive, but it's a judgement call, which is part of the reason for inviting other editors to look at the proposal. Answering specific points:

• FTMay12 isn't my ref. It's an interview with the Financial Times, already in the article- ref 7 in the present version.

Y In future, if you're going to want to use sources by their names in the article, or other similarly complex requests, please make a complete draft in your userspace of the entire article. That will prevent any miscommunication about desired layout of sections as well. You can link to Special:Diff in future WP:ERs if you want to have multiple requests open at a time which don't need to be added together.

• My opinions about religion or religious education aren't in the proposed text. I'm trying to express what the charity aims to do. Fine to add "intending to..." or another qualifier to make that clear.

Y

• I Googled Deborah Kehr and it looks to me like she deserves a Wikipedia biography as head of multiple organisations, so I created a redlink. Nobody pretends Wikipedia is complete, so nothing should be inferred from the lack of an article about her. Li Yongjun has won an award for preserving China's cultural heritage, so is probably notable too. I hadn't looked deeply into it, but thought he deserves the benefit of the doubt. But I accept that maybe this is too much detail for the present biography.

Y Right, I'm not really asserting that they're not notable, I'm just presuming that. Of course Wikipedia isn't complete, but at the same time, someone very notable, who became so in the last five years, is very likely to have an article. So, as a shortcut, we can sometimes use not having an article as a proxy for notability. What was really the problem wasn't the red links, certainly they're allowed, it was, as you mentioned, WP:TMI.

• Quoting "everday heroes", which I did, has the same semantic effect as prefixing with "so-called".

Y OK, I accept that.

• Neutrality requires that we fairly summarise the reliable sources about the subject, not that we find wrong things a person has done to "balance" their life morally. There is already text and references in the article addressing how he made money.

? Sorry, not buying this argument. I'm not asking you to seek a false balance. I'm questioning whether someone at this level of notability, with an article this long, who is as old as Khalili, can really have 100% of the content be flattering. We have a whole article called criticism of Mother Teresa. Also, the article is not clear at all about how he got so rich. It says his parents were art and antiques dealers. Many such families exist, very few of them create billionaires powerful enough to get people to write about them when they might not even care what their Wikipedia bio looks like. More information is definitely needed: how much was inherited? Did he use it as seed money to start businesses, or did he primarily grow it through investing? Whether any interesting, independent and reliable criticism of how he earned it falls out is up to the sources, but if it's not there I won't hold that against you.

• There were previously photos in the article that were deleted as not properly licensed, but I think this is in progress.

? In progress? Do you mean you messaged WP:OTRS?

• I've never met Prof. Khalili and I have no idea what he thinks of this article about him, or if he cares. It seems you and I both agree though that the article could be improved and that's the point of this discussion.

Y Adding an image does improve the article, there's no reason to be defensive. I'm not accusing you of any wrongdoing.

• My request: could there be a mention of the Global Hope Coalition and of Faith in the Commonwealth in the "Philanthropy" section? These are activities that have coverage and that are relevant to Prof. Khalili, but I totally take on board that my proposed text went into excessive detail.

Y Of course, I didn't propose removing them entirely.

MartinPoulter (talk) 10:51, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

@MartinPoulter: Replied point by point. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 14:31, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

@Psiĥedelisto: Hi again, I saw that you okayed the addition of the Global Hope Coalition and Faith in the Commonwealth to the article, so thought that meant you were going to add them, but I see these haven't been added. The other points aren't relevant to this edit request. With respect to the images, I didn't mean to imply that I was uploading an image. I think someone connected to Khalili is doing that and this requires them to get written notification from the photographer and to share that with OTRS. I don't know the financial detail beyond what's in the article.

Just to get back to basics, this edit request is here because I'm making a request for you (or another uninvolved editor) to add content that I ought not to because of COI. We've made progress on what needs to be added — in fact we seem to have come to an agreement! — so what remains is to act on it. You seem to think that you're requesting me to make an unrelated change to the article! Of course this Talk page can be used to discuss what about the article could be improved- and there's lots of things. But there's no reason to target questions to me as I don't have any special knowledge and there are a lot of reliable sources already linked in the article or listed on the Talk page above this discussion. Nothing stops you using those. Again, I don't see why the question about financials is being directed at me in the context of an edit request which isn't about that topic.

I don't know what point you're making with the Mother Theresa comparison. There are entire books criticising Mother Theresa, so it's natural for that to be summarised in a Wikipedia article. Same with other people when there is extensive published criticism. That doesn't imply there should automatically be criticism articles or sections for other people who are old, rich, or whatever other criteria. We have to be guided by sources that actually exist, not what someone speculates might exist. Especially since this is a BLP, claims need to be well-sourced, not "His article is long and he is in his seventies, therefore..." MartinPoulter (talk) 12:54, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

@MartinPoulter: Especially since this is a BLP, claims need to be well-sourced, not "His article is long and he is in his seventies, therefore..." ← I am, of course, well aware of WP:BLP, and have written BLP's, most recently Hiroyuki Nishimura (69.6% as of Diff/965822591). I'm not the paid editor though, nor familiar with the sources, nor do I have any interest in volunteering my time to become familiar with the sources that exist on this subject (other than ones you provide, and any others I might have to find if the ones you provide are dubious!). I also wrote quite plainly Whether any interesting, independent and reliable criticism of how he earned it falls out is up to the sources, but if it's not there I won't hold that against you., meaning I was willing to trust you despite your COI if you had replied with e.g. I have read almost every reliable source I am aware of about Khalili, and have found no criticism worth mentioning of how he attained his wealth, nor of his character.

Regarding your understanding of the COI ER process, I do not, as a general rule, implement part of an edit request. As with Inkian Jason on Talk:Wheely § Draft, my WP:ER process is to compare every change in the draft to the article and ask for changes to the draft until I believe it meets Wikipedia policies on neutral point of view, verifiability and reliable sourcing,^{[‍WP:ERREQ‍]} after which I implement the entire request. This is to be done per my interpretation of WP:COIRESPONSE No.1. Again, I don't see why the question about financials is being directed at me in the context of an edit request which isn't about that topic. ← So that, when I add five paragraphs of glowing praise on Mr. Khalili's behalf, I am sure that my edit is morally correct vis-à-vis WP:WEIGHT and WP:NPOV.

So, those're my thoughts on the issue. But, of course, I don't need to be the reviewer if you think I'm sorely mistaken. I will understand if you re-open your COI ER, and won't be offended. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) ^{please always ping!} 02:29, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

Edit request October 2020

I have created an improved draft of this article at User:MartinPoulter/Nasser_Khalili. This diff summarises the changes I've made. I think this is a clear improvement over what is there at the moment, but of course I'm open to discussing any of the changes individually. Being involved in a GLAM partnership with the Khalili Collections, I'm prevented by a COI from pasting in the whole draft myself. Below I list the problems with the existing article that this new version is designed to fix.

• Lots of broken links, links to outdated sources, and bare URLs.
• Links to Khalili publications when third-party sources exist
• The Sydney Morning Herald article is listed as its own source, but it's just a reprint of the Bloomberg profile.
• Some WP:PEACOCK or otherwise unencyclopedic language
• In particular, the lead needed an overhaul because of some confusing language and because it was not a summary of the article. The fact about Bernie Ecclestone buying a house from Khalili arguably deserves mention in the article, but it's a bit tabloidy to have it in the lead as though it's central to understanding who Khalili is.
• The descriptions of most of the collections have been updated, drawing on articles about each collection which have passed AFC and DYK review.
• The Khalili Collection of Islamic Art being "curated by Julian Raby" seems to have been true at one point but is presently contradicted by https://www.khalilicollections.org/islamic-arts/#read-more so I've removed it.
• Images have been provided to represent each of the eight collections.
• Two items owned by Khalili are the subjects of WP articles: Khalili Imperial Garniture and Jami' al-tawarikh, so I've described and wikilinked both.
• A lot of the sources about Khalili refer to his philanthropy, but there was not much about philanthropy in the biography, so I've rewritten that section. "In 2012, he pledged over £1.5 million in support of his charity, The Maimonides Interfaith Foundation, in celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee." - removed because I couldn't find a source.
• Property development section: "Khalili acquired the freehold in 2009" removed because I couldn't find it in the sources. There is no need for the images in this section to be enlarged, so I set them to default size.
• The Recognition section had some duplication and was written in a very inconsistent way. The UNESCO goodwill ambassador subsection did not give an impression of what he does in this capacity.
• The Financial section overlapped heavily with the Business and collecting career section, so I merged it in.
• It is customary for a biography of a published author to contain a bibliography, so I've added a new section for that. I don't have the title of the first book he wrote, but I am still hoping to find that out and include it.
• New, short section on Personal life. It's common to put family details in their own section towards the end.

Again, the proposed solution for these problems, and the supporting refs, are in the draft in my userspace and I'm very happy to further discuss changes if that is necessary. Thanks in advance for any help, MartinPoulter (talk) 16:01, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

Pinging @Philafrenzy, Edwardx, and No Swan So Fine: - three editors who have made numerous edits to this article and have removed promotional material - in case they can help. MartinPoulter (talk) 12:30, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your transparency and your enormous work on this article and his wonderful collections. I concur with all of your above changes and your dedication to improving flow and prose - which is a rare ability on Wikipedia! The article still preserves the enigmatic nature of Khalili's Kane like grandiloquent collecting, and serves as brilliant glimpse into the life and motivations of a fascinating London character. I hope the GLAM partnership with Khalili will prove to be an inspiration to other collectors and custodians of the memory of humanity. No Swan So Fine (talk) 22:36, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

@No Swan So Fine: You're very kind. If you agree that my draft is an improvement, could you please paste it in to replace the current article? Thanks so much, MartinPoulter (talk) 22:44, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Done. No Swan So Fine (talk) 23:50, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Clicking "Thank" is not enough: I'm extremely grateful! MartinPoulter (talk) 16:12, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Edit request

To the list of Honours and awards, please add Freedom of the City of London, which he was given yesterday (6 November 2025). Source: https://www.jewishnews.co.uk/freedom-of-london-for-jewish-art-scholar-whos-amassed-worlds-largest-collection-of-islamic-art/

Many thanks in advance, MartinPoulter (talk) 14:32, 7 November 2025 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. NotJamestack (talk) 16:38, 7 November 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for responding. In the Honours and awards subsection of the article there is a list. Please to the end of this list add "Freedom of the City of London (2025)" with this source: "Freedom of London for Jewish art scholar who's amassed world's largest collection of Islamic art". Jewish News. 7 November 2025. Retrieved 2025-11-09. Cheers, MartinPoulter (talk) 14:40, 9 November 2025 (UTC)

Please use a "change X to Y" format. NotJamestack (talk) 15:02, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

I'm not proposing a change but an addition. Are you saying that you don't understand the instruction I've given above? Would it help to think of it as a change from the existing list to a list that is one item longer? MartinPoulter (talk) 20:52, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

You have been asked to use a "change X to Y" format. Also, you seem to have disclosed a conflict of interest. Is that true? NotJamestack (talk) 22:16, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

I've given a "change X to Y" format in my comment above; I'm requesting the change of a specified list to a list which is the same but has an additional item at the end. As you can see on this Talk page and the fact I've used the COI edit process to request this edit, I acknowledge a conflict of interest. Can you explain what the barrier is? MartinPoulter (talk) 11:46, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

WP:CHANGEXY says "Insert X after Y" is an acceptable format. So I'm asking that after the list item 'Knight Bachelor "for services to interfaith relations and charity" (2020)', please insert a new list item with the following wiki code * [[Freedom of the City of London]] (2025){{cite web|no-tracking=true|url= https://www.jewishnews.co.uk/freedom-of-london-for-jewish-art-scholar-whos-amassed-worlds-largest-collection-of-islamic-art/ |title=Freedom of London for Jewish art scholar who’s amassed world’s largest collection of Islamic art|date=7 November 2025 |work=Jewish News|access-date=2025-11-09}} MartinPoulter (talk) 12:03, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

Description by Pope Benedict

• Suggested change: In the Recognition section, after "Pope Benedict XVI further elevated him to Knight Commander in that order (KCSS) for his pursuit of peace, education and culture among nations.", add a new sentence:

Pope Benedict described Khalili as having "in one person the great wisdom of a Chief Rabbi, a Cardinal and a Grand Mufti".

• Rationale: Other editors are better-placed to evaluate this, but this compliment from the Pope for someone's interfaith work, in the course of giving them a knighthood, seems like a big deal.
• Citation: the Jewish News article (reuse ref 76 in the current version). "Freedom of London for Jewish art scholar who's amassed world's largest collection of Islamic art". Jewish News. 7 November 2025. Retrieved 2025-11-09.

Thanks in advance for any response, MartinPoulter (talk) 11:42, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

I'm torn on this one. It's an undeniably impressive compliment, but I think it might be a bit much; Khalili's honors largely speak for themselves. Not going to accept or decline it outright, I'll leave it open for another editor. DiscoursesonLivvy (talk · contribs) 05:15, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

With all due respect for Jewish News, seeing as this is a representation that we're saying came from Pope Benedict, I'd prefer the Press Office of the Holy See as the source. That should be relatively easy to locate. Once this is done, the H:WIKILINK for Grand Mufti should be applied to the proposed text, since that term seems to be (from a Western perspective at least) the one possibly needing an explantion for readers. When ready to proceed with the source URL and WikiLink, please reopen this request by altering the {{Edit COI}} template's answer parameter to read from |ans=y to |ans=n. Thank you! Regards,  Spintendo  01:08, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Interfaith Explorers

In the fifth paragraph of the Philanthropy section, it says "Its activities include the Maimonides Interfaith Explorers, a UNESCO-supported online educational resource for children aged 10 to 11." This site still exists under the name "Interfaith Explorers"; for most of its existence it has not been known as "Maimonidies Interfaith Explorers". See for example ref 32 in the current article or page 4 of this UNESCO document. The citation at the end of the sentence (ref 31) is to a dead link that isn't archived. My request is to remove "Maimonides" from that sentence and remove ref 31 because ref 32 supports nearly the whole sentence. I can't yet find a UNESCO reference to back up the phrase "UNESCO-supported" so I suggest removing that too for now and I'll put in another request if necessary. Thanks very much for any help!

The source provided is a Primary Source. This is not sufficient for supporting the edits requested. Please find a non-primary source to support the requested content change. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 04:40, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

The case summary is indeed extracted from the case documents. However, a press release about the case would be a secondary source, and anyway is a source perfectly acceptable on Wikipedia. Note that we use secondary sources primarily in order to avoid bias often inherent in primary sources. Here, in the DoJ press release, the risk of bias is negligible. — kashmīrī ^TALK 04:58, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

That said, I somehow fail to see why the current wording would be problematic. It summarises the developments well without going into irrelevant details, doesn't it? — kashmīrī ^TALK 05:02, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

A press release from an organization that is reporting about it's own work is also a primary source. But your final comment pretty much hits the nail on the head - they aren't important details. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 05:31, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your feedback. With these edits we were attempting to clarify the situation in the article. I figured a case summary from the US Attorney's office would suffice as a secondary source, or that it would at least be sufficient in the sense of reliability, but I understand your perspective. I found this article, as well. Would this meet the secondary sourcing guidelines? There are others as well, but I don't want to spam this Talk page with links. ONECapitalOne (talk) 20:05, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Well, I've looked over the gizmodo article, re-read the DOJ press release, and the original sourcing via Capital One's 'FAQ' page archived at archive.org, and I still don't see what material difference these small details make. Your original request stated "Reason for the change: Taken out of context" - but the opening text is true and correct. What you're requesting be removed does not appear to be taken out of context. At best (worst?), your edits could be additions after the text you requested be replaced. But these details are so minor I still fail to see their value. The article could stand to be updated to acknowledge the final judgement in the case, but my interest in the matter isn't great enough to motivate me to put in that effort. Perhaps another editor will be inclined to do so. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 03:14, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

COI edit request 3/12/24

• Specific text to be added: under Capital One response, REMOVE: "Critics lambasted the bank's effort to downplay the hack while investigations were ongoing, and described the bank as more concerned about its image than the needs of its clients. Several Capital One customers stated that the first time they heard about the hack was through the media and the bank did not disclose the breach or explain its implications to affected customers." REPLACE with: Capital One was alerted to the incident on July 17, 2019. The FBI arrested and charged Paige Thompson within ten days of that alert, and on July 29, Capital One issued a press release about the hack. At that time there was also a banner on Capital One’s website that directed customers to a fact sheet and FAQ page, though several Capital One customers stated the first time they heard about the hack was through the media."
• Reason for change: existing copy is inaccurate, and there is no citations to support critics "lambasting" Capital One. Replacing text explains clearly and concisely the chain of events, and what Capital One said publicly.
• References supporting change: https://slate.com/technology/2019/07/capital-one-hack-no-customer-notification.html Thank you. ONECapitalOne (talk) 14:59, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 19:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

COI Edit Request 4/12/24

*Specific Text to be Added: under Federal Reserve Action, REPLACE with:

On August 6, 2020, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors announced a cease and desist order against Capital One resulting from the breach. The order mandated, among other things, several actions for Capital One to comply with for risk management.

In 2023, the Federal Reserve terminated that 2020 order, stating the matter to be resolved. A separate consent order from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) was terminated in 2022, with the OCC reporting that “the bank had reached a level of safety and soundness no longer requiring extra oversight.”

*Reason for change: Attributable citations support the matter was resolved and terminated to Federal Reserve and OCC standards.

*References supporting change:

COI Request 6/2/2024

*Specific Text to be Added: Capital One began offering free credit monitoring services and identity protection to those affected by the breach. It was ultimately determined there was no evidence the data was shared by Thompson.

Partly done Do you have a source for identity protection? That was not in the citations you provided. I'll look around too.

*Specific Text to be Added: In 2022, Thompson was convicted of five felonies and two misdemeanors. She was sentenced to time served and five years of probation. She was also subject to location monitoring for three years and her use of computers and the internet was subject to federal monitoring.

 Done with some edits

*Specific Text to remove:

Forensic analysis determined Thompson's actual hacking activity occurred in March 2019, then she posted the information to different outlets over the next three months. In April she posted a trove of leaked data along with instructions on how to access the company's credentials for more data extraction. In July a white-hat alerted Capital One to Thompson's hacking activity. Thompson pleaded not guilty to charges of wire fraud and computer fraud and abuse. During the investigations and subsequent data freeze, millions of Capital One accounts were locked; their owners were unable to process financial transactions, meet payments, or gain access to their financial records.

and replace with:

In 2019, Thompson started scanning IP addresses hosted by AWS for misconfigured web application firewalls. She accessed approximately 30 AWS accounts, one of which belonged to Capital One. Other affected accounts belonged to the Transportation Security Administration, Vodafone, Michigan State University, and Digital.ai. Thompson used her illegal access to plant Ethereum cryptocurrency-mining software. She was also able to access internal cloud computing resources in some cases, and then ultimately acquired security credentials and could log into the AWS accounts.

Reason for changes: more specific about events and context; changes to 'Details of the breach' provide specific details and remove redundancies of Thompson's activity and sentencing.

Hi @ONECapitalOne, taking a look at this. Couple notes:

1. The SEC filing is good source but what exactly is it supporting? I don't want to read 281 pages ;)

2. I think I can add the text above without issue

3. There's definitely some useful additional context and content you've supplied, but I think we should fold that in rather than blank and rewrite, unless there is something inaccurate or unsourced about the way things are written right now.

-- FeldBum (talk) 16:23, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

@FeldBum Thank you for your response, and for the edits you have already made. Responses below:

1. The filing is a supporting citation to the fact there was no evidence the data was shared by Thompson. Additionally, regarding the "identity protection" phrase, this was covered in publications after the breach was publicized: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/how-protect-yourself-after-capital-one-data-breach-n1036076 https://consumer.ftc.gov/consumer-alerts/2019/07/capital-one-data-breach-time-check-your-credit-report 2. Thank you for reviewing and implementing. 3. Folding in is a reasonable solution; we will defer to you and other editors on how that information should be organized and published.

Thank you for reviewing this request, and for your thoughtful feedback. ONECapitalOne (talk) 22:22, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

No problem @ONECapitalOne. Let me read those sources and see what I can add. -- FeldBum (talk) 02:23, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Thank you ONECapitalOne (talk) 15:40, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

 Not done While I don't think this is an unreasonable request, do you have better sources that can be used for this? While sources 2 and 3 come from WSJ and CNBC respectively, they come from their commercial product sales arms. Sources 1 and 4 are middling to low-quality and are very promotional in nature. I have marked this as answered; to reopen the request with new sources, please change |answered=yes to |answered=no in the {{edit COI}} template at the top of the section. Spencer^T•C 16:41, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

I'll state up-front that I sincerely appreciate the COI editor's strict conformance to the COI process and requirements - it's admirable, and rare. I'm only here to note that a fair bit of these changes are relatively trivial, and are suggestive of marketing, rather than truly encyclopedic content. Readers tend to be looking for history, controversies, etc, when they look at a wikipedia page about big businesses. Finer details of changes in offerings, rebranding, etc - those usually fall into the bucket of google searches by users, rather than coming here to learn about them.

This is not a complaint. I'm only suggesting that some of these changes will likely never meaningfully inform an existing or potential customer. Aside from that - again, thank you for your dedication in following the process. cheers, anastrophe, an editor he is. 22:45, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

Thank you both for the constructive feedback. It's a priority that we handle this request exactly in line with Wikipedia guidelines. While this is just my understanding of the platform, I would like to clarify the exact nature of the sourcing and present a revised request.

To address the concern of the sentence reading as marketing language or a Google search result, I have narrowed it down to:

"The company operates Auto Navigator, a digital automotive financing and shopping platform that has been evaluated by consumer financial media."

As for sourcing to support this, per WP:RS, a source's reliability is tied directly to the credentials of its creator. While the Buy Side from WSJ source is a consumer-focused article, the content is still produced independently under the Wall Street Journal/Dow Jones umbrella, and authored by industry journalists and contributors. This one specifically is by Bob Haegle, who is an established expert in the automotive and consumer finance sector, with a history of writing for reputable publications.

I believe the revised text is entirely neutral, verified by independent experts, and provides appropriate context for the 2005–present history section, without being promotional.

Thank you for your review, TPAWithCapitalOne (talk) 02:27, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

Anxiety disorder

Proposed addition to "Treatments for children" section: parent-based treatment (SPACE)

Disclosure: I am Eli Lebowitz, the developer of the SPACE treatment discussed below, so I have a conflict of interest and am proposing this change here rather than editing the article directly. I would be grateful if an uninvolved editor could review the proposal and the sources and add the content (in whatever revised form seems appropriate) if it is judged suitable.

Proposed text (2–3 sentences for the end of the "Treatments for children" section):

Parent-based treatment has also been developed for childhood anxiety. Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions (SPACE) is delivered entirely to parents and targets family accommodation of the child's symptoms; a randomized noninferiority trial found it comparable to cognitive behavioral therapy for childhood anxiety disorders,[1][2] and the CANMAT/ICOCS 2025 international guidelines state that it has shown efficacy in pediatric anxiety disorders.[3]

Bulat Utemuratov

September Edit Request

Hi I have a conflict of interest with Bulat Utemuratov and would like to suggest some further quick changes to the article, largely suggesting that headings be changed or material be moved/clarified. Thank you in advance for reviewing and please let me know if you have any questions at all either in the replies or at my Talk page.

1. The sentence currently at the end of the 'Career' section before the Glencore subheading covers events which took place in the nineties: "In 1996 Utemuratov was appointed as ambassador to Switzerland, a position he held for three years."

It would make more sense chronologically if this sentence were moved so it was the second sentence in the 'Career' section, so that it is read before events transpiring in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Reason for change: Chronological order makes more sense to a reader.

2. I suggest removing the 'Freezing of assets' section heading.

Reason for change: It is undue emphasis to have a whole section dedicated to a revoked injunction, and the second paragraph of two in this section is about a different topic.

3. Add wording to provide context for speech paragraph.

Reason for change: The paragraph on Hodge's speech neglects to indicate that the comments were protected by with parliamentary privilege (confirmed in the Forbes source). This is a significant detail because parliamentary privilege legally allows MPs to make comments that do not require proof while protecting against accusations of defamation.

Can wording be added to clarify this protection, i.e. "In March 2022, Dame Margaret Hodge, a British Member of Parliament, named Utemuratov in a speech using parliamentary privilege advocating for sanctions against Kazakh billionaires."

4. Remove the 'See Also' section.

Reason for change: The individuals mentioned have no relation or connection professionally to Utemuratov. No other articles in the Category:Kazakhstani businesspeople have a 'See Also' section linking to other random individuals in this category.

Many thanks for considering these changes. Podsought (talk) 16:11, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Partly done: Didn't do 2 because there are other subsections there. They structure the section and it wouldn't make sense to remove them. I also don't see how the parliamentary privilege adds any relevant context to the sentence. Defamation doesn't come up in the article. Likeanechointheforest (talk) 18:45, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

@Likeanechointheforest, once again, I very much appreciate the time you have taken to assess these points. Regarding point 3, I believe the addition of "parliamentary privilege" is relevant because it affects whether the claims made are taken at face value. UK parliamentarians are allowed to make statements which could otherwise be challenged legally. Wikipedia is far more demanding about verifiability on its pages, and it would be easy for a reader to take this section as written if they assume Wikipedia's usual guidelines are in force.

Essentially, the claims presented in this paragraph have implications that cannot be contested, regardless of whether they are accurate. These have been added to the article in the context of the speech so that the citations support the quotes and origin, rather than supporting the content of the claims made. I don't think it would be right to remove the mention of the speech given the coverage cited, but adding in the "parliamentary privilege" note would ensure full context.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the above! Podsought (talk) 12:10, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I see your point, but disagree with the necessity here.

The claim in the article is pretty nonspecific: "Utemuratov ... had benefited from ... ties to the Nazarbayev regime," and further reinforced, in greater detail, by this NYT article: "Bulat Utemuratov, whom a British lawyer ... alleged in court was Mr. Ablyazov’s 'money-launderer in chief.'"

There's also this from Source Material: "Opposition parties wrote to the London Stock Exchange, stating: ... 'Utemuratov is widely believed to be holding these assets for the benefit of Nazarbayev.' ... A leaked US diplomatic cable from 2009 noted that Utemuratov had “long been rumoured to be Nazarbayev’s ‘personal financial manager’”, while in another from 2007 he was cited by a source as an example of 'high-level corruption' and 'a billionaire who has never had a business'."

Warsaw Point says: "His activities can be best described as a money laundering operation aimed at benefiting Nursultan Nazarbayev, the former president of the country."

I wonder if you might have ideas about how these sources could be added to the article? Likeanechointheforest (talk) 20:08, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

@Likeanechointheforest, once again I appreciate the prompt reply. I have taken some time to review the sources you have outlined, and here are my thoughts.

• The claims that the NYT makes are already included in the existing article within the "Freezing of assets" section; the article you mention could be added as an additional source on those points, but I think the existing WSJ source and language cover the issue better than the one paragraph in the NYT. The NYT could also be used to cite the lifting of the freeze, the settlement and dropping of the case, as the citation for that sentence is not ideal as it is an affiliated source. As this content is cited and stated factually I hadn't really considered looking to find further content or change wording on these points, but those would be my thoughts, COI notwithstanding.
• There is no current Wikipedia consensus regarding Warsaw Point as a reliable source, but from the tone, circulation figures and formatting it does not look like it meets BLP criteria. I would say that an admin should review the site in general but I would not be comfortable suggesting including it as a source, especially for a BLP, without such an assessment.
• Source Material looks more professional despite being a .org publisher, and they openly declare the sponsor foundations funding their journalism. However the claims made are already in the article in the "Glencore" section with sources which are already considered generally reliable such as The Telegraph, Reuters, and three articles from the Times (I have linked one here). I don't have any particular recommendations for the wording in this section.

In summary I think the existing sources currently suffice and are stronger, though the NYT might be useful as an additional citation on some points.

In my view the speech paragraph would still benefit from having the parliamentary privilege note as it does not have the same reliability status as these other cited claims.

Speaking of reliability, I wonder if you might take a look at the banner on the article, stating that "Some of this article's listed sources may not be reliable". Looking at the "References" section I think most of these are gone now, especially now that the "Charity" section has been removed. I have my own thoughts here and will submit a new request.

Finally, I agree with you that the "Charity" section did not really reflect "Charity", more philanthropic foundations/board roles, and the majority of which were not supported by references which meet Wikipedia’s criteria, as above. That said, would it be possible to restore the "Tennis" sub-section but moved to within the "Career" section? It never really fit the charity descriptor in any case, and moving it was on my list for future fixes.

Thanks again, I appreciate the work in helping improve the article. Podsought (talk) 06:40, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

October Edit Request

Hi @Likeanechointheforest, here are the changes in the format you specified:

1. Could the sub-section in regards to Bulat Utemuratov's involvement with tennis, which was previously in the "Charity" section, be restored within the "Careers" subsection after the last paragraph:

Extended content

−

As of 2013, Utemuratov was a key investor of the projects managed by [[Verny Capital]] investment group, together with [[VEON]] he also owned two telecommunications operators –"KarTel" in Kazakhstan and "SkyMobile" in Kyrgyzstan operating under the brand [[Beeline (brand)]]. Verny Capital is a majority shareholder in a gold mining company RG Gold, while 35 percent equity stake belongs to Resource Capital Funds, a US-based private equity fund. Utemuratov is the main shareholder of [[:ru:ForteBank|ForteBank]]; he owns the Burger King franchise in Kazakhstan and has holdings in hotel sector.

Utemuratov has been the President of the Kazakhstan Tennis Federation since 2007. In September 2019, Utemuratov was elected as [[International Tennis Federation|ITF]] Vice-President. On 9 July 2022, Elena Rybakina became the first Kazakh to win the Ladies Singles tennis championship at Wimbledon. Rybakina thanked Utemuratov for his role as head of the Kazakh tennis federation in a press conference after her win.

Reason for change: Bulat Utemuratov's involvement in both domestic (Kazakhstan) and world tennis is one of the more notable aspects of his modern career and did not properly belong in the Charity section.

2. The speech paragraph in reference to Margaret Hodge would benefit from the addition of the phrase "using parliamentary privilege":

Extended content

−

In March 2022, Dame [[Margaret Hodge]], a British Member of Parliament, named Utemuratov in a speech advocating for sanctions against Kazakh billionaires.

Reason for change: Adds context regarding the separate verifiability conditions of claims made in such speeches.

3. As discussed above, the is a New York Times source which can be added to the Freezing of assets section to support the existing WSJ reference and replace the affiliated source:

Extended content

−

On 1 December 2020, The Wall Street Journal reported about the freezing of Utemuratov's assets including stakes in luxury hotels, cash in bank accounts in half a dozen countries and a Burger King franchise, by a UK civil court on the claim of BTA Bank. According to a statement distributed by Verny Capital on 9 December 2020, the freezing injunction of the English Court in relation to the assets of Bulat Utemuratov had been revoked following a settlement between the two parties.

4. Would it be possible for you to remove the banner regarding the sources which may not be reliable, following the removal of any outstanding subpar citations? The dead/unreliable citations I think need updating are as follows:

Extended content

• The unnecessary external link and sec.govreference within the "Career" section in regard to Kassa Nova, as this is a primary source. I suggest replacing with the following Kursiv source. I have also rewritten the sentence for spelling and accuracy:

−

After the 2009 crisis, Kassa Nova, the first [[microcredit bank]] in Kazakhstan, was established. In 2020 Kassa Nova was acquiered by Freedom Holding Corp for an approximate $ 41 million.

+

Kassa Nova, formerly owned by Utemuratov, was established in 2009 and was acquired in 2020 by Freedom Holding Corp for an approximate $ 41 million.

References

• The current source within the "Personal life" section confirming Utemuratov's family members does not meet Wikipedia's reliable source criteria. The sentence could be partly cited using the following Bloomberg article. As this information is accurate I have no problem leaving the sentence as is but indicating that a further source is needed:

Utemuratov is married to Utemuratova (Baishuakova) Azhar Abzhamiyevna. He has two sons and a daughter.

References

• Can the deadlink regarding Utemuratov's time on the Security Council be replaced with the archived version: https://web.archive.org/web/20220523165009/https://www.akorda.kz/en/executive_office/presidential_councils/security-council

• Can the deadlink in the Awards section be replaced with the archived version: https://web.archive.org/web/20190609125712/http://kazakhstan.news-city.info/docs/sistemsx/dok_iedhfb.htm with the following text, translated from Russian to English, confirming Utemuratov under the list of recipients: Утемуратова Болата Джамитовича - помощника Президента Республики Казахстан.

Hi @Likeanechointheforest, once again, thank you for engaging with my request and implementing those changes.

I have one further minor modification to ask of you - when you have a moment, can the plural "Kazakhs businessman" in the lead please be altered to the singular adjective "Kazakh businessman"?

June 2026 Edit Request

Hi I have a conflict of interest with Bulat Utemuratov and would like to suggest some further quick changes to the article following some updates to companies he owns.

@Likeanechointheforest I remember you were extremely helpful last time around and if you have a moment to share your thoughts I'd love to hear them!

1. In the second to last paragraph of the Career section, could the following assets be updated to reflect that these have now been sold?

• If the subject of the article no longers owns something, the proper way of describing it would be to state they "owned Skymobile operating under the brand Beeline" rather than to delete its mention outright.
