Disclosure of potential conflict[edit]

I would like to build out and make some improvements to the Friskies article. It's a stub, and needs to be improved Purina is a client of my employer; any edits I make, I will make while carefully following WP:NOR, WP:SPAM, WP:NOT as well as WP:COI, while always keeping WP:PAID in mind. I wanted to add a note here, in order to be as transparent as possible. I would like editors to monitor my changes to the article, and review any work conducted on the page to make sure they are in line with Wikipedia’s standards. If you have any questions or concerns about the article, or my work in general, please feel free to post a note on my talk page. -- Thanks, Nanorlb (talk) 17:40, 16 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Draft[edit]

Part of an edit requested by an editor with a conflict of interest has been implemented. Merged some content and references with older version

I would like to request an editor review and consider the draft located at Talk:Friskies/draft as a replacement for the current article. The draft would substantially expand the article's History section, while virtually eliminating the indiscriminate list of product names.

I am reviewing your draft and it looks good so far but I have a question. Is it possible to merge it with the existing article? (and eliminate the outdated info in the current article.) AND-I saw one teeny-tiny change I would have made, but I didn't want to mess-with your draft. Wondering if your draft would have to be placed in article space before making changes, (merge?/and/or word change). The change was replacing, "cheaper"-with, "less expensive".

@TeeVeeed: I changed it to "less expensive". Please feel free to merge with the current article, make any edits you deem appropriate, edit in draft-space, or ask me to do stuff as needed. However you want to proceed is fine. CorporateM (Talk) 14:41, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @TeeVeeed:! FYI - I went ahead and updated the logo image in the infobox as a non-controversial janitorial edit. Since Wikipedia doesn't allow putting Trademarked/Copyrighted images in draft space, I always have to do that afterwards. If you're interested in doing more reviews, I'm always in need of editors willing to spend a few minutes to vet my work. CorporateM (Talk) 23:54, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

yw--If I venture into the COI requests, I'll keep my eyes open. I hadn't realized how backlogged the list is, and I confess I plowed into it and noticed Friskies because I ♥ cats. Also-I think your edits were a good improvement to the previous state of the article, so it was an easy choice thereTeeVeeed (talk) 00:11, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
