Edit request to update details[edit]
 | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hi, I work for Lone Star Funds. As a disclosed COI editor, I understand and appreciate the Wikipedia community's policies and protocols. I would like to request that the following updates be made to the current article:
- Update infobox with current President: William Young[1]
- I am requesting that the Motion Pictures Financing subheading be deleted and that the information therein be incorporated as part of the history section. This investment is just one piece of the company's history with no more or less significance than any other piece. It is being given undue weight with its own subheading. I suggest placing this revised and updated content, with source 22, in the history section in the appropriate chronological place before the paragraph beginning "In July 2015": In early 2014, LS Capital, a credit affiliate, entered the motion picture financing sector when LStar signed a $200 million deal with Sony Pictures. However, after poor box office performances of Sony's movies, the two firms severed ties in 2017.[2]

Done I put it in chronological order (2014 before 2015), and updated the president as per the source provided. Signed, I Am Chaos (talk) 20:24, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi. @I Am Chaos:. Thank you for your prompt action on my request. Really appreciate your jumping in on this one. I have a few more changes I'd like to make to the article.

Edit request to update details II[edit]
| This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Hi, Christina here again. I am requesting the addition of four funds to the existing 'Funds investment vehicles chart' in order to bring the chart up to date. Below is the updated chart already coded to replace the existing chart in the article. You'll see I've added The Lone Star Value-Add Fund I, The Lone Star Real Estate Fund VI, The Lone Star Residential Mortgage Fund II and the Lone Star Fund XI. I've also changed the Lone Star Fund X to reflect the correct year, 2017.
Already done Hey Just Jumping in here from my talk page, it looks like @Timtempleton: got to this before I saw your message to me, so I'm just oing to close out your request tag. Signed, I Am Chaos (talk) 05:33, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

This can all be sourced from the company's website https://www.lonestarfunds.com/funds-raised/ and SEC filings https://sec.report/CIK/Search/Lone+Star. I'm including I Am Chaos here since they have already been helpful with the first edit request. Thank you, ChristinaforLoneStarFunds (talk) 21:43, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
Done @ChristinaforLoneStarFunds: I added sources to some of the funds, to show notability and justify including them on a long list. I noticed that the sources I found sometimes listed different values than you showed, so I changed them in a few cases. If you want to source the rest of the funds yourself, I don't think anyone would care, as long as you put in the right numbers. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 02:17, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
POV tag[edit]
I have added a {{POV}} tag to this article because it hardly mentions the numerous controversies the company is involved in. While not a POV issue, it also does not mention the dispute it had with South Korea, which in fairness to LSF ended with the country paying the company $216.5 million.
