The company logo needs to be updated.[edit]

The logo featured in the company infobox is now outdated and needs to be updated to reflect the one currently used on the site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coughlanl (talkcontribs) 10:36, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested changes to infobox, controversies and categories[edit]

I'd made some changes to the article which were reversed in full by an editor objecting to promo editing and whitewashing. I'm afraid I totally disagree with that. I've tried to engage with those objections but had no response so I'm listing my suggested changes here for discussion in case others have a view.

Infobox: change from 'company' to 'brand'. The company is actually Cend Limited which is a subsidiary of another company which is a division of a plc. I believe the brand is also being licensed out to other companies and being spun off into other related brands so 'brand' allows more fields to reflect that.

Description: change the short description from "British online sports goods retailer" to "British online sports nutrition retailer." It's mainly a sports supplement brand.

British English: add British English statement to the top of the page. It's already written in British English, just needs formalising for bots.

Logo: add logo (File:Myprotein logo.png) to infobox. There's no logo currently used but the file is already on Wiki.

Misc infobox info: add product categories, add URL to remove a need for external link section etc.

Trophies: remove promotional info on awards won.

Controversies: remove two existing controversies listed and add one. - remove what turns out to be "man has mouse problem in kitchen." All references withdraw the information, no longer relevant or reliable. - remove a story about worms in Japan. I can only find this tweet (WP:SPS) and no reliable source for it. - add litigation controversy. Add long-running 2014 lawsuit with Oliver Cookson. Plenty of references on that.

Sports partnerships: change to sponsorships because that's what this is... There's no such thing as a "sports partnership."

Tidy up: amend categories, tidy broken references (change "last=news" from news references etc.)
