Sourcing

[edit]

Am working over the sourcing here. Lots of stock tracking blogs, press releases, etc. There is one high quality ref from the WSJ. Am digging that up to see what all can be sourced from it here. Jytdog (talk) 20:58, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing is really difficult. so many stock-tracker sites make passing mention to them changing their position on X; many of these just aggregate bits of news from here and there are very low quality... and are just passing mentions. Still looking for independent refs with substantial discussion... am in my library's article database now, wading through gunk. Jytdog (talk) 22:00, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
just went through ca 400 results searching for "Cambridge Investment Group"... nothing substantial. now trying "Cambridge Investment Research"... Jytdog (talk) 22:58, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editing

[edit]

@Jytdog:

Please read Wikipedia:Snowball clause and Wikipedia:IAR for example. Your trying to follow the rules but this is counter-productive.You are actually making it hard to improve the article with your disruptive edits.

Following RS is not disruptive. Jytdog (talk) 21:11, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Jytdog:Hounding all of my edits and looking to stick by the rules rather then improving Wikipedia is. Cheers WikiEditCrunch (talk) 21:13, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page is for discussing article content. Please read WP:TPG Jytdog (talk) 21:17, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Jytdog: You are not benefiting Wikipedia by strictly staying by the rules.So heres the issue: You are disrupting in me improving this article and the WikiProject Investment. Cheers mate! WikiEditCrunch (talk) 21:22, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Page move?

[edit]

I wonder why this article is here instead of the main company, Cambridge Investment Group. Should we move it? Jytdog (talk) 21:28, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There is too little info on the parent company.I would suggest not moving it.

There already is a shortened version of that table in the article. The sourcing in the current version, to " Insider Monkey", is a bit better than what it was before, to the company's SEC filing only. But as we discussed in the section on this table at the WikiProject here, I am not sure this set of time-limited data points is encyclopedic - am not sure it should be in the article at all.

@Jytdog: Your right I guess.I would say maybe two tables are also too much information (nobody needs "information overload")
