Page inaccuracies

For full disclosure, I work at Matalan. I noticed there are a number of factual inaccuracies on the Matalan Wikipedia page and wanted to suggest that these are corrected in order for the page to be true and factual. This includes inaccuracies related to the following sections of the page: 1) the first paragraph of the overview; and 2) the “structure” section, due to their statement that the Hargreaves family are still the owner of the company, which is no longer true (source; source). Similarly, the “Management” section does not make clear there is a new Chairperson (source) and includes executives who are no longer with the company following a number of management changes (source; source: source: source). Finally, the number of stores cited in the overview section of the page is out of date (source). With those points in mind, in order to be true and factual, you may also feel it is necessary to update the “History” section of the page to reflect the latest developments. 2024-KP (talk) 12:38, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 2024-KP, unfortunately editors will often not see talk page comments until they are out of date. If you use {{Edit COI}} that will add your request to a queue and enable an interested editor to respond. You will also need to disclose that you are a paid editor on your user page, see Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure#How to disclose. TSventon (talk) 05:30, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Matalan page inaccuracies

Dear Wikipedia editing community,

I hope this finds you well. I recently suggested some changes to the Matalan page, and I noticed that they haven't been acknowledged yet. I understand that you may be busy with other tasks, but I wanted to check in to see if there's anything else I can provide to help with the review process. Please let me know if you have any questions or if there's anything else I can do to assist – I welcome any comments or questions you may have via my Talk page. Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards 01234KEP (talk) 11:43, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
