Private Equity

This article is within the scope of the WikiProject Private Equity, a collaborative effort to improve the depth of quality and coverage of the private equity and venture capital industry and related topics in Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the project and see a list of open tasks.

This project seeks to collaborate with the following WikiProjects:

History

It is requested that edits be made to the following semi-protected articles:

D (edit · history · last · links · protection log)
S (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of MHR Fund Management, I would like to flag the last paragraph of this page (“In 2014, MHR failed to consummate… fallen to less than 25% of the 2014 value.”) as being poorly sourced.

According to Wikipedia’s list of reliable sources, there is no consensus regarding the reliability of the New York Post. The additional citations for that paragraph, Bloomberg[1] and Yahoo[2], do not mention MHR Fund Management and therefore possibly violate WP:NOR.

Please note that we are not otherwise commenting on the accuracy or completeness of the disclosure contained in this page.

Hi @NinaSpezz: thanks for the message. What exactly do you want changing on the page? It'd be useful to editors who review edit requests if you state clearly what you want to be changed in a format such as this:

- Change X to Y
- Reason: X is incorrect
- Sources: Z shows that Y is correct^{[insert reference here]}

Once you've done this, you can re-open the edit request by putting {{request edit}} above your new message, thanks. Seagull123 Φ 20:47, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I work for Rubenstein and on behalf of MHR Fund Management, I am requesting the removal of the last paragraph of this page (“In 2014, MHR failed to consummate… fallen to less than 25% of the 2014 value.”) as it is poorly sourced.

According to Wikipedia’s list of reliable sources, there is no consensus regarding the reliability of the New York Post. The additional citations for that paragraph, Bloomberg[3] and Yahoo[4], do not mention MHR Fund Management and therefore possibly violate WP:NOR.
