Hi there,

Aidan Heavey is the CEO of the company that I work for (Tullow Oil). He has recently expressed some concerns around his entry on Wikipedia. All of the content relating to Reference 6 (^ a b GNN Liberia (31 January 2013). "Tullow Oil’s projections cause budgetary worries in Africa". GNN Liberia.) is factually incorrect.

We approached the journalist that wrote the article and, after hearing our concerns, he agreed to either amend or remove the article. Unfortunately he never did so.

I would like to amend the entry with some updates, and also remove all of the content related to Reference 6. However as I work for the company that Aiden is the CEO of I am wary of being accused of corporate censorship.

Could you advise me please as to the best way to go about amending and updating this page so that it is done in an unbiased, factual and transparent maner? I do have a fisked version of the article if that is of any use?

Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, LindsayAtTullowOil (talk) 08:41, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We generally go with what the sources say and do not edit on the basis of the independent knowledge editors bring to the articles. Are there other sources that rebut what is in the reference you describe as inaccurate? I do appreciate the approach you're taking here -- but editing the article will have to go according to what the sources say. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 11:59, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the response. I will see if there are any public facing sources that rebut the content of that referenced source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LindsayAtTullowOil (talkcontribs) 13:21, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It may be a long-shot, but alternatively, you can ask the journalist for a correction (again). CorporateM (Talk) 15:49, 18 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
