Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Correct and amplify page

How does a company like Salini Impregilo work on its own page? I am a spokesman for the company and I have noticed errors on the page. I also need to add many more details on the company's history and other details. How can this be done if I have a conflict of interest? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.103.25.146 (talk) 12:55, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am a spokesman for Salini Impregilo. If I have a conflict of interest, what can I do to correct and amplify the information about the company on the page? Thanks, Gilles Castonguay. Contact: gr.castonguay@consulenti.salini-impregilo.com +39 342 682 6321.

Hi - The article seems to be pretty comprehensively referenced at the moment so it is unlikely that there will be many serious errors: if there are any such errors please detail them here. Likewise if there are any serious ommissions please detail them here. However please note (i) no material will be added that could be considered an advert for the company's services (see WP:NOTADVERTISING) and (ii) any new information needs to be undependently sourced (see WP:SOURCE) so please provide the relevant source. Please also note that any information should be balanced so we would normally expect to see critical comments about the company as well as positive comments (see WP:NPOV). Best wishes.

Hello - I would be happy to assist with any questions you may have. Please feel free to start a new section on my user talk page. My Gussie (talk) 08:51, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reporting of Financials

I found that some of the numbers in the regulatory filings do not agree with those published in the 2014 annual report that is referenced in the article. Is there someone who can explain if there are different ways of determining these numbers? If so, which numbers should appear in the article? My Gussie (talk) 09:18, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - It is always best to use the annual report figures as these will have been independently audited. The figures in the regulatory filings including such indicators as 'Ebitda' which are not necessarily disclosed in annual reports. Dormskirk (talk) 19:33, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Error in the page: Webuild never announced plans to hire 10,000 workers "from Africa"

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi. I am a spokesperson for the company: I work in the Digital Communications Department at Webuild and I have noticed an error on the page. I want to contribute to company content on Wikipedia and I will do so by following the rules. Due to my conflict of interest, I believe it is best to propose this modification within these discussion page. I refer to the following paragraph: "In March 2024, Webuild announced plans to hire 10,000 skilled construction workers from Africa by 2026 to address labor shortages and support the company's growth in European infrastructure projects, highlighting Italy's broader strategy to fill 600,000 job vacancies by welcoming skilled workers foreign workers amid a shrinking national labor force." Although I see that there is a source to support it, in reality the information that the company has announced its intention to hire workers *from Africa* is wrong: no reference has ever been made by the company or by the APLs that they follow the recruitment activities on the geography of hiring so it would be necessary to eliminate the indication of the geographical origin of the workers (or perhaps, if you think so, eliminate the entire paragraph which perhaps, even if it seems flattering towards my company, does not seem to me to be of great interest encyclopedic) adhering to the official statements on the program https://www.webuildgroup.com/it/carriere/cantiere-lavoro-italia/. Can I proceed with the modification? Lisa Loianno (talk) 13:43, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Upon looking at the original sourcing I agree with you that the source does not say that 10,000 will be recruited from Africa. The wording in our article was reading something into the source which it did not actually say. I have therefore removed the section of text. Thank you for following the COI edit request process.

COI note: off-topic paragraph in history section

Hi. I am still the same spokesperson of the company that opened the previous request and again because of my conflict of interest, I think it is better to propose this other change within this discussion page. I refer to the following paragraph: "On 18 December 2018, Marco Bucci, the mayor of Genoa and commissioner overseeing the reconstruction of the bridge over the Polcevera River announced the selection of Salini Impregilo and Fincantieri Infrastructure, via a new company called PERGENOVA, for the reconstruction of the bridge according to a design by Renzo Piano"

This should be the company history section so I think it should talk about mergers, acquisitions etc... Not business, otherwise we should also add other projects. Although it is an important project for my company, it seems to me an off-topic paragraph in this section, conceptually wrong to put it here. Why include this project and not others, then? (for example in the Italian version there is a section dedicated to projects where they are all listed, but since there is not here then I would not put this one either). Do you agree? I await feedback. Lisa Loianno (talk) 07:51, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Dormskirk (talk) 09:23, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

COI contribute: Infobox company update

Hi. I am still the spokesperson of the company that opened the previous requests and, again due to my conflict of interest, I also report here in the discussion page that I have updated the Infobox company by inserting the most recent data relating to stock exchange, key people, products, financial data, number of employees and subsidiaries. I also corrected the foundation date, because the one that was present was the foundation date of Impregilo and not that of Salini Impregilo (the first name of the company, which later became Webuild). I also eliminated the rating field, since in the Wikipedia guidelines I saw that this field is indicated as "used for banks only". I hope that these interventions are fine and are considered a contribution respectful of the rules, even if made in a conflict of interest. If confirmed, I would proceed with interventions of the same type (updating and correcting old or inaccurate data) in the rest of the entry. Otherwise I am open to discussing it and hearing your opinion. Lisa Loianno (talk) 14:34, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

COI contribute: Major projects

Hi. I saw that in the list “Major projects” there are some dates to update: · · Kariba Dam, Zimbabwe/Zambia -> 1960 (not 1959) · Akosombo Dam, Ghana, 1961 (not 1966) · Tarbela Dam, Pakistan, 1983 (not 1976) · Trans-Gabon Railway, Gabon, 1986 (not 1982) · Desalination plant Jebel Ali L, United Arab Emirates, there are 2 projects in CP: L1 à 2008 and L2à 2006 (not 2005) · Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, still in progress (not 2011) · Faido sections of the Gotthard Base Tunnel, 2014 (not 2016) · Red Line North, part of the Doha Metro project in Qatar, 2020 (not 2019)

Source: https://media.webuildgroup.com/sites/default/files/2024-10/Webuild_company_profile_2024_ita.pdf Can I proceed with the modification? Lisa Loianno (talk) 15:50, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - As per WP:RS, we need to use independent sources. I have looked for a few independent sources and according to these sources:

Kariba Dam was completed in 1959 (see here)
Akosombo Dam, Ghana was completed in 1965 (see here)
Tarbela Dam was completed in 1976 (see here)
Trans-Gabon Railway, Gabon was completed in 1986 (see here)
Desalination plant Jebel Ali L, United Arab Emirates was completed in 2010 (see here)
Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, was completed in 2024 (see here)
The Gotthard Base Tunnel was completed in 2016 (see here)
Red Line North, part of the Doha Metro project in Qatar was completed in 2019 (see here)

So, yes, a few of them could be adjusted, but using the dates and independent sources above. I am happy to make the adjustments if you are content with my findings. I hope this helps. Dormskirk (talk) 18:13, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
