John Stafford Geddes

Edit Request: Expand family background

Dear fellow editors,

In accordance with Wikipedia's conflict of interest guidelines, I am requesting an addition to the family background of Dr. John Stafford Geddes, rather than editing the article directly.

I would like to propose expanding the "Early life and family" section to briefly include his parents, as his father was also a medical pioneer.

Proposed text to add: "Geddes' father was William Stafford Geddes (24 January 1891 – 14 May 1969), a Northern Irish medical doctor who was a historical pioneer in the field of professional medical anaesthesia on the island of Ireland. He was married to Rachel Olive Geddes."

Citation to support this addition:

Thank you kindly for your assistance in reviewing and implementing this update to ensure the family history is completely accurate and verifiable.

Yehuda Kahane

COI edit request: Add sources for the Bickley Founder's Award

I am Yehuda Kahane, the subject of this article, as disclosed on my user page. Per WP:COI, I am requesting changes here rather than editing the article directly.

The article's first sentence states that I am "the 2011 recipient of the John S. Bickley Founder's Award for his contribution to the theory, practice, and education of insurance and risk management" and is currently tagged with {{citation needed}}.

I would like to request that the {{citation needed}} tag be replaced with the following two independent sources, which verify the claim:

1. A news article in TheMarker (Israeli financial daily, part of the Haaretz group), published 22 November 2010, reporting that the International Insurance Society awarded me the John S. Bickley Founder's Award, noting it was the first time the award was given to an expert from Israel:

2. The official list of John S. Bickley Founder's Award recipients published by the International Insurance Society, which lists "Yehuda Kahane, Tel Aviv University, Israel (2011)":

No change to the article text itself is requested – only the addition of these references in place of the existing {{citation needed}} tag.

Thank you for your time. YehudaKahane (talk) 14:04, 13 July 2026 (UTC) YehudaKahane (talk) 14:04, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

Updates Requests

Hi fellow Wikipedians,

I have disclosed my WP:COI on my talk page and would appreciate your assistance in incorporating these updates to ensure the page remains current and accurate.

1.- Add: As Executive Vice President of Digital Strategy at Universal Music Group, Nash oversees the company's global digital business development and platform partnerships.

Thank you! TheBlueOwl (talk) 02:08, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

TheBlueOwl,

Yes I made a few tweaks to your proposed entries to make them more concise and neutral.

It might be necessary to keep the subject's work in UMG in chronological order. Thanks! IBWikiFellow (talk) 23:15, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

COI: Professional background

Hi everyone, I have disclosed my WP:COI on my talk page and would appreciate your assistance in incorporating these updates to ensure the page provides well-supported, relevant details.

1. Add: Nash joined Warner Music Group (WMG) in 2000, serving in various senior management roles. In June 2008, he was named Executive Vice President of Digital Strategy and Business Development, where he oversaw global digital operations until leaving the company in 2011.

• Rationale: The basic factual details of this corporate history are verified by independent secondary coverage in Variety, alongside supplementary corporate history from the Universal Music Group investor relations site (per WP:ABOUTSELF).

Nash described the programs as structural shifts from traditional streaming models aimed at utilizing music as a therapeutic tool.

TheBlueOwl, before touching the lead, can you verify that his 2000–2011 tenure at WMG is already fully detailed and sourced in the Career section of the article. Wrontheroof (talk) 04:22, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Hi Wrontheroof, I made an adjustment to the initial request to address the subject's history in WMG before adding this information to the lead section. TheBlueOwl (talk) 00:49, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

COI: Executive roles and initiatives

Hi fellow Wikipedians,

1. Add: “WMG brought back Nash appointing him as Head Business Development Executive in 2015 to serve as global digital strategy and business development advisor.

• Current entry: He earlier served as director of the Criterion Collection
• Placement: Career, 2nd sentence

4. Add: While serving as a partner at The Voyager Company, Nash was involved in the acquisition and development of several contemporary film releases for The Criterion Collection, including Robert Altman's Short Cuts and the anime film Akira.

Question:

• Where it states While serving as a partner at The Voyager Company, Nash was involved in the acquisition and development of several contemporary film releases for The Criterion Collection Could you please clarify what the text means by "involved"? When ready to proceed, kindly change the {{Edit COI}} template's answer parameter to read from |ans=y to |ans=n. Thank you!

Regards,  Spintendo  01:47, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

Hi Spintendo,

Thank you for your feedback. The New York Times source states that Nash's role at Voyager/Criterion was centered on targeting and bringing in newer, contemporary films that fit a specific commercial and cultural profile.

To better match the source and eliminate the word "involved," we could tweak the text to read as follows:

"While serving as a partner at The Voyager Company, Nash focused on the acquisition and development of several contemporary film releases for The Criterion Collection, including Robert Altman's Short Cuts and the anime film Akira."

This keeps the entire sentence structurally intact but swaps out the ambiguous "involved in" for the source-backed phrase "focused on."

Please let me know if this adjustment is acceptable!

Best! TheBlueOwl (talk) 14:06, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

Khalili Foundation

Requested edit

The article as it exists now is very out-of-date. With a new draft that I've written in my userspace, I've used more third-party sources and given more detail both about the present activities of the Khalili Foundation and its past activities when it was named the Maimonides Foundation. Because I receive money from the Khalili Foundation as part of a GLAM project, I have a conflict of interest. Please could another editor look over my version and paste it into this article, or give me permission to do so. Naturally, I'm happy to discuss any improvements to the draft. Pinging @TYelliot: as the main contributor to the present version of the article. MartinPoulter (talk) 09:43, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

 Partly done: PK650 (talk) 11:10, 11 June 2022 (UTC)

@PK650: Thanks so, so much for doing this. I've edited just to delete a rogue comma and to fix a citation warning. Just a few further suggestions: The quotation "cultural, academic, sporting and educational programmes" in the lead was sourced to the old version of the foundation's web site, not its present web site, which is potentially confusing. I don't think this sentence needs its own citation, since it's summarising what is already cited in body text. Again in the lead, wouldn't "art, culture and education communication" be better without the final word? "Education communication" doesn't sound correct. I think "Jewish - Christian - Muslim interfaith (Abrahamic religions)" would read more elegantly without the bracketed phrase. Do you agree?

P.S. These people mentioned in the Infobox as "Key people" - Rabbi Professor Jonathan Magonet, Lord Hameed of Hampstead, Robert Yentob - I think can be safely removed. They are not mentioned in the rest of the article (or the article's sources, as far as I can tell) and they do not seem to be currently involved with the foundation. Since Sir David Khalili is already identified in the Infobox as Founder, I don't think this article needs a "Key people" line.

P.P.S. You didn't add the {{Nasser Khalili}} navigation template at the foot of the article: do you have any objection to it?

To address the (who?) tag, the quote from the source is from Mehri Niknam "Six months later 9/11 happened and everyone told us it would be impossible to co-operate with Muslims.". How about the following as a replacement for that paragraph?

In the aftermath of the September 11th attacks in the United States, according to Mehri Niknam, Executive Director of what was then named the Maimonides Foundation, "everyone told us it would be impossible to co-operate with Muslims." Instead they intensified their effort, considering it especially urgent to promote peace via inter-cultural understanding.[8] Niknam said at a conference about the attacks that "religions cannot be isolationist, cultures must develop or stagnate, and communities need to interact."[9]

MartinPoulter (talk) 16:07, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

In the thread above I've suggested some small changes to make the lead flow more easily and to make the article consistent. I've suggested removing "(Abrahamic religions)", removing the superfluous word "communication", removing the quotes and citation from "cultural, academic, sporting and educational programmes" (rewording if necessary), removing the "key people" line from the infobox, adding the navigation template at the foot of the article, and replacing one specific paragraph with what is given above (preserving the existing references). If anyone can make these changes, or give me permission to make them, I'd be very grateful. MartinPoulter (talk) 09:56, 14 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi. I've done some of what you've requested. I think Abrahamic is a key aspect of the foundation, and as such have left it. PK650 (talk) 06:32, 18 June 2022 (UTC)

Requested edit December 2024

Hi, the Khalili Foundation has had some media coverage recently. I'm the Wikimedian In Residence, so I'm suggesting the following additional content for this article.

1) To go in the Partnerships section after the first paragraph (on the Commonwealth):

On 12 August 2024, the Khalili Foundation, the charity Peace One Day and the Commonwealth celebrated International Youth Day with a six-hour streamed broadcast in which young people shared accounts of working for peace, sustainability and democracy.

In September 2024, the Khalili Foundation and the Commonwealth announced the Commonwealth Peace Prize. To be awarded in 2025, this has a value of £50,000 and will be awarded to a Commonwealth citizen, at least 30 years old, who has made significant achievements in bringing about sustainable peace.

2) At the end of the Partnerships section:

The Foundation is a founding partner in the The King’s Commonwealth Fellowship Programme (KCFP), announced in October 2024. In partnership with the Association of Commonwealth Universities, this offers funding to individuals in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) to help them tackle the climate and economic challenges faced by those countries. The programme has three strands, supporting professionals in public service, undergraduate students, and doctoral students.

MartinPoulter (talk) 17:32, 6 December 2024 (UTC) updated MartinPoulter (talk)

I'm unconvinced that a 6 hr streamed broadcast is of encyclopaedic interest. Axad12 (talk) 20:02, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

Fair enough- that's why I ask here. What about the other two suggested paragraphs? MartinPoulter (talk) 21:20, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

To be clear, is it basically the role of a Wikipedian in Residence to spot some media coverage and then try to crowbar it into the article?

Surely you are experienced enough to be aware that simply being in the news does not equate to necessarily being suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia? Axad12 (talk) 21:34, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Not Done. Removing from queue (no response from requesting editor). Axad12 (talk) 11:13, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

@Axad12 Sorry I didn't see your question at the time. If you want to learn more about the role of the Wikimedian In Residence at the Khalili Foundation, take a look at WP:GLAM/Khalili; my WIR roles at the University of Oxford and at the Bodleian Libraries are also documented on their own pages linked from my user page. It's not my role to crowbar anything into anything; hence my seeking outside input like yours, for which I'm grateful. Thanks for your attention to this request. MartinPoulter (talk) 16:01, 10 April 2025 (UTC)

Requested edit April 2025

The Khalili Foundation's peacebuilding work has had a lot more media attention in the last month, in particular for the awarding of the inaugural peace prize. My request is for an insertion after the first paragraph of the Partnerships section:

Presentation of the first Commonwealth Peace Prize to the joint winners Pastor James Wuye (left) and Imam Muhammad Ashafa (right) by Baroness Scotland and Sir David Khalili

The partnership with the Commonwealth has included the creation of the Commonwealth Peace Prize, first awarded in March 2025. The joint winners, Pastor James Wuye and Imam Muhammad Ashafa, fought on opposing sides of Nigeria’s Christian/Muslim conflict in the 1990s but subsequently founded the Interfaith Mediation Centre to promote peace in Nigeria and other conflict regions. The award included a £50,000 donation from the Khalili Foundation for the centre. The presentation included the performance of a song, "Love in Peace", composed for the occasion by Andrew Lloyd Webber with lyrics by Ben Elton and Bruno Major. The Khalili Foundation also made five awards of 2,000 to young Commonwealth citizens for peace-building work.

References

Many thanks in advance for any help. I'm of course happy to discuss further. MartinPoulter (talk) 16:37, 10 April 2025 (UTC)

 Not done: This addition may place undue emphasis on recent events. Perception312 (talk) 22:52, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Requested edit April 2026

The above edit request was declined because of too much emphasis on the award ceremony, which is fair enough. Still, the Commonwealth Peace Prize got a lot of coverage, a lot of which explicitly mentions the Khalili Foundation. So it's reasonable to expect it to be mentioned in this article. Thus I'm requesting the following paragraph to be added at the end of the Partnerships section:

Presentation of the first Commonwealth Peace Prize to the joint winners Pastor James Wuye (left) and Imam Muhammad Ashafa (right) by Baroness Scotland and Sir David Khalili

The partnership with the Commonwealth has included the creation of the Commonwealth Peace Prize, first awarded in March 2025 to Pastor James Wuye and Imam Muhammad Ashafa. The award included a £50,000 donation from the Khalili Foundation for their Interfaith Mediation Centre.

Requested edits July 2026

1. When Prince Charles became King Charles III, the Prince's Trust was renamed the King's Trust. In the second paragraph of the Partnerships section, please change the text and link.
2. At the end of the International visits section, remove the sentence "The foundation believes they would thus enhance understanding and relationships between Jews and Muslims." and its citation. This isn't really in Wikipedia style and anthropomorphises the foundation. It was formed from a combination of sentences and I think it's redundant because it's clear from context what the goal is.
3. To the end of the Partnerships section add: The Khalili Foundation is a founding supporter of The King's Commonwealth Fellowship Programme delivered through the Association of Commonwealth Universities. The programme offers undergraduate and doctoral scholarships, as well as climate resilience fellowships, to students and professionals in the Commonwealth's Small Island Developing States.
4. The Commonwealth Peace Prize was part of a larger programme, the Commonwealth Faith Festival, which is mentioned in an image caption but not explained in the body text. So the paragraph in the Partnerships section about the Commonwealth Peace Prize should reflect that. Delete the text before "Pastor James Wuye" and begin the paragraph: In March 2024, the Baroness Patricia Scotland and Sir David Khalili announced the Commonwealth Faith Festival, a programme of online and in-person training with awards for peace-building projects. The festival culminated in March 2025 with the award of the first Commonwealth Peace Prize. The recipients were Pastor James Wuye and Imam Muhammad Ashafa[...]

Aaron London

COI edit request: strengthen sourcing and update career and discography

I know Aaron London personally and am posting this request at his request. I therefore have a conflict of interest and have not made the proposed changes directly to the article. I am asking an uninvolved editor to review the wording and sources below.

The purpose of this request is to strengthen the article with additional independent coverage, improve the neutrality of the career section and add independently sourced entries to the selected discography. I am not requesting that the notability template be removed automatically, but I would appreciate an uninvolved editor reassessing it after reviewing the additional sources.

Proposed lead

Aaron London is a British singer, songwriter and producer associated with R&B and soul.

Proposed career section

Career

London was profiled by Flavourmag in 2011. In the interview, he said that he began producing music at 13 and later developed his singing and rapping alongside production.

In 2016, London featured on New Machine's debut single "Dare 4 U". The Fader identified London as a British R&B singer and commented on his vocal performance on the track.

In 2018, Wonderland reported that London and New Machine had formed the musical project Wolves after working together on "Dare 4 U".

In April 2020, Clash covered London's single "Think Big". The following month, Notion featured his single "Take Me Back", discussing its soul, blues and jazz influences.

In 2021, London co-wrote and featured on Nia Wyn's single "Imma Be Honest". His contribution to the recording was reviewed by When the Horn Blows and Earmilk.

Proposed selected discography

Selected discography

Year	Title	Role	Notes
2016	"Dare 4 U" (New Machine featuring Aaron London)	Featured artist
2020	"Think Big"	Lead artist	Single
2020	"Take Me Back"	Lead artist	Single
2021	"Imma Be Honest" (Nia Wyn featuring Aaron London)	Co-writer and featured artist	From Take a Seat

I recall that The 405 covered "Trapped – Prelude" featuring Kojey Radical, but I have been unable to verify the exact article title, author, date or archived URL. I have therefore not included that claim or citation in the proposed article text.

Thank you for reviewing this request. Musicman765435 (talk) 14:27, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

Catherine Hershey

Suggested additions

Hi, I have come across some information that is not yet included in the article. I would like to make the following additions:

• To the Marriage to Milton Hershey section:

The ceremony was officiated by Father Thomas Murphy. It was a private affair with no attendants and only a few close friends present. The couple returned to Lancaster the next evening.

• To the Philanthropy section:

Catherine was a founding member of the Lancaster Charity Society in 1904. She served on its Conference Committee and was one of only seven original life members. Her influence is also credited with prompting Milton Hershey's first documented charitable gift, $5,000 to equip a chemistry laboratory at Franklin & Marshall College in 1902.

• Add a new "Legacy" section:

Catherine Hershey Schools for Early Learning, a network of tuition-free early childhood education centers operated by the Milton Hershey School Trust, is named in her honor. Centers have opened in Hershey (2023), Harrisburg (2024), and Middletown (2025), with further locations planned through 2027.

Jackson.ironstone (talk) 15:03, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

@Jackson.ironstone As I mentioned at the Teahouse, what someone "wants" does not really affect an encyclopedia. Wikipedia doesn't ask for Joe Biden's approval or Donald Trump's approval for anything that any article says about them. Articles are not owned or controlled by their subjects; that's one of the guiding principles here.

You, or anyone, can request that any article be deleted. Other editors can then give their opinions on the matter, and you (and anyone) can participate in that discussion. The article might be deleted, or it might be kept, depending on the discussion. In other words, you cannot force a deletion.

Articles are (or should be) based on what the reliable, published sources say. David10244 (talk) 04:42, 15 July 2026 (UTC)

Edits requested

Would appreciate the community's consideration of the following edits to this article to reflect recent developments.

• Separate the current History and Operations section to be two distinct sections
• In the newly created History section, Add information about the company’s initial funding from Antler, suggested language below:

In 2020, Fanfix received initial funding from Antler; founders Harry Gestetner and Simon Pompan were the youngest founders Antler had ever supported.

• In the newly created Operations section, Add the 2025 acquisition of the Sunroom startup, suggested language below:

In 2025, Fanfix acquired Sunroom, a startup designed to allow women and non-binary content creators monetize their web-based communities.

Bluecenter2020 (talk) 19:12, 21 May 2026 (UTC)

I've added a mention of Antler, but the claim about them being the youngest ever is trivial. The second change does not have a reliable source. (It's ironic that an outlet called "Missing Perspectives" wouldn't bother to give byline credit, but since it reads like AI slop churnalism anyway, perhaps that's for the best.) If you find a better source, we could reevaluate. Grayfell (talk) 18:54, 2 June 2026 (UTC)

Thanks, Grayfell. I appreciate all you did here. Your point about the sourcing on the Sunroom acquisition is well taken. This was covered in a press release that was picked up by Yahoo!Finance; do you think it falls into the ABOUTSELF category? Bluecenter2020 (talk) 14:12, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

I've used the press release to mention the acquisition. Grayfell (talk) 19:04, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

Including Updated Numbers

Can the following financial and numerical details be included in the article, in both the content and the infobox? While the sources are press releases, perhaps this information can be included as it is (also) covered by ABOUTSELF.

• Revenue as of March 2026 = $250 million
• Users as of March 2025 = 15 million+

Similarly, I'd like to suggest adding some additional information to the description of what Fanfix is. Something like this (note-the Observer article is already used as source 2 in the article):

Fanfix allows subscribers to pay for exclusive content and direct messaging with creators; each content creator determines their own pricing. Fanfix creators must apply to use the app and are offered performance-based incentives, but not to promote the app itself. Grayfell and Spiral6800, what do you think?

Comment: @Bluecenter2020, payouts to creators is not the same thing as revenue. Also, I'm seeing multiple different numbers for users when looking up info about this company. Ktkvtsh (talk) 00:03, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for your attention Ktkvtsh, apologies for any confusion.

The most recent publicly available revenue is a 2023 figure of $35 million, sourced by this TechCrunch article. Can this be included in both the content and infobox? Perhaps the $250 million payout to creators figure can be included in the content as well?

Regarding the number of users, the most updated figure comes from the company's most recent press release (and picked up by news agencies as listed, #2 and #3 in the references above). Previous figures are likely outdated.

Please consider incorporating these details along with the expanded description of the company. Looking forward to working together. Thank you, Bluecenter2020 (talk) 20:15, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

Partly done by adding a better platform description. That is all I added. I believe anything else would be advertising for the company. Others may disagree and you are free to get a second opinion. Ktkvtsh (talk) 15:00, 30 June 2026 (UTC)

Thanks Ktkvtsh. Appreciate your time and attention. It was my understanding that AUM is a standard feature of infoboxes and article content. I am pulling together an additional request and will post soon. All the best, Bluecenter2020 (talk) 16:12, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

You're welcome. Sounds good. Ktkvtsh (talk) 17:25, 1 July 2026 (UTC)

Addition of details

Requesting approval for inclusion of the following details:

• Fanfix launched in the Middle East in March 2023
• Fanfix includes an analytics dashboard for tracking earnings, subscriber count, and other performance metrics.

(this Tech Crunch article appears as reference 1 in the current content)

• Each influencer sets a monthly subscription fee from $5 - $50 per month. The highest earner on Fanfix makes $7 million per year; multiple users make more than $1 million yearly.

(this Observer article appears as reference 2 in the current content)

Ktkvtsh, it was great collaborating with you earlier; would you consider these additions as well? Thank you, Bluecenter2020 (talk) 18:38, 2 July 2026 (UTC)

Please be aware of WP:CANVASS. I have added the info about the Middle East launch. The other changes will need a lot more work to be neutral. Again, Wikipedia isn't a platform for public relations. Grayfell (talk) 19:54, 2 July 2026 (UTC)

Thanks, Grayfell. Appreciate your help and input.

What do you think of this rework for these two sentences, to be added to /modify the end of the first paragraph of the History and operations section (below shows the modifications):

Fanfix was founded in December 2020 by college students Harry Gestetner, Simon Pompan and was later joined by Cameron Dallas as cofounder. Initial funding was provided by the venture capital firm Antler. Fanfix allows creators to place posts, videos and messages behind a paywall. The platform also includes analytics and statistics parameters for creators to track engagement. Creators set monthly subscription prices, varying from $5-50 per month, and the platform also offers paid direct messaging features. Creators' earnings on Fanfix vary; the highest earner on Fanfix made $7 million per year in 2023. Bluecenter2020 (talk) 14:20, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

This reads like it’s meant to draw people into the website. Like advertising. Keeping in mind that you work for the company, it feels like you’ve been tasked with getting all of this added to the page for your job. I believe the article reads fine as it is now. Ktkvtsh (talk) 14:39, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

Sources

revenue + users

Per the discussion above, I am asking the community to consider including the revenue figure, number of users, and payouts to creators in the article (the first two in the infobox as well).

• Revenue as of March 2025 = $175 million

• Users as of June 2026 = 63 million

• Payouts to creators as of June 2026 = $300 million

Source 1 is a press release; would ABOUTSELF allow for the inclusion of this information?

Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts

Request: Correct name of property

Hi editors, on behalf of Hilton via Coyne through my work at Beutler Ink, I am submitting this request for editor review. Currently, the "Africa and the Middle East" table under Waldorf_Astoria_Hotels_&_Resorts#Current_properties has a row for Waldorf Astoria Lusail Doha. I'd like to propose correcting this entry by changing the name of the property to Waldorf Astoria Doha Lusail, per Condé Nast Traveler, Vogue Arabia, and Hilton's official website.

My goal for this request is to make the article more accurate and up to date. I avoid direct editing, if someone's able to update the table on my behalf. Thanks! Danilo Two (talk) 15:28, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

Done WhinyTheYounger ※ Talk 16:50, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

@WhinyTheYounger: Thanks for the review! I'll be back with some other requests here soon, in addition to requests I've posted to the Hilton Worldwide and Hampton by Hilton articles, if you're interested. Danilo Two (talk) 17:46, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

Request: Correct name of Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach Resort & Club

Hi editors, I'm back with another request on behalf of Hilton. Similar to above, the "North America" table of Waldorf_Astoria_Hotels_&_Resorts#Current_properties has an entry for Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach. However, the full name of the property is Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach Resort & Club, per Hotel Management, Sunset magazine, and the official website.

I am seeking help from an editor to update the table on my behalf, as I avoid direct editing. Thank you again! Danilo Two (talk) 18:34, 7 July 2026 (UTC)

Request: Update Future properties table

On behalf of Hilton I'd like to submit another edit request, this time for the Future properties section, which is outdated.

Here is a list of additional rows to consider, along with sources:

• Waldorf Astoria Bahrain Bay (2028), Manama, Bahrain
• Waldorf Astoria Goa (2030), Goa, India
• Waldorf Astoria Marbella (2029), Marbella, Spain
• Waldorf Astoria New Delhi (2029), New Delhi, India
• Waldorf Astoria Nile River Experience (2026), Nile
• Waldorf Astoria Riyadh Diriyah (2028), Diriyah, Saudi Arabia
• Waldorf Astoria Sanya Haitang Bay, Sanya, China
• Waldorf Astoria Xi'an, Xi'an, China

References

I should note that the Nile River Experience is a cruise, not one specific site, if there's a different way of noting this in the article. Again, my goal here is to make the article more accurate and up to date and I invite editors to make appropriate changes. Thanks again! Danilo Two (talk) 16:02, 13 July 2026 (UTC)
