Proposed changes

Part of an edit requested by an editor with a conflict of interest has been implemented.

I work with the comms team at the Atlantic Council and I'd like to propose a few updates to this article, starting with the description of the event.

Specific text to be revised: Global Citizen Awards is presented by the Atlantic Council annually to individuals who have made exceptional and distinctive contributions to strengthening the transatlantic relationship.

CHANGED TO Global Citizen Awards are presented by the Atlantic Council annually to individuals who underscore “the Atlantic Council's critical mission to shape the global future together” and who "seek to improve the state of the world."

Reason for the change: For the grammar fix: Awards is plural. Added more direct language from Atlantic Council on why the awards are presented.

Partly done, grammar fixed but synthesis should generally be preferred over quotes. Rusalkii (talk) 19:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Specific text to be added: I request this be added after the first sentence about the award:

The awards are presented annually during the United Nations General Assembly week in New York.

Reason for the change: This provides more context on where/when the awards are given.

Done Rusalkii (talk) 19:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @Rusalkii. Much appreciated.

The sentence as it is now is not accurate. The award is more broad than just transatlantic focus. How about this instead?

Done, though note that your source for Chu didn't actually contain the relevant infomration. I've replaced it. Rusalkii (talk) 19:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since I work for the Atlantic Council and thus have a conflict of interest, I will not be making any changes to the page myself. I am hoping, though, that editors who watch this Talk page will be able to review this request and then update the page. I appreciate your attention to this matter.

REMOVAL REQUEST

Specific text to be removed:

2004 Stanislav Petrov - lieutenant colonel, who played a key role in the 1983 Soviet nuclear false alarm incident.

Reason for the change: This information was erroneously added. If you look at the link, you'll see that it mentions that Petrov was provided the "World Citizen Award" by the Association of World Citizens (AWC). Of course, flagging that the two references be removed as well.
