Neutral tone?
editThis page reads like Cohen's CV. 87.112.151.26 (talk) 14:52, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, this needs more objective editing. Much talk of "boy wonder" and "wunderkind" - he has been called a lot of other things too, perhaps these should be included as well to give more balance? SkinheadEscapes (talk) 07:41, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
- Such as? As this a BLP anything added needs properly sourcing. Jamesinderbyshire (talk) 14:03, 29 April 2011 (UTC)
- This reads like Mr. Cohen's mother wrote it. A little neutrality please? Markhh (talk) 16:22, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Well if you are talking about the "boy wonder" and "wunderkind" sentences, they are both sourced from quality newspaper articles. I don't really see there's anything wrong with including them as such and the overall tone seems fairly matter-of-fact. If there is critical material in reliable sources, we can include that too. Jamesinderbyshire (talk) 11:13, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
- Critical material in reliable sources duly included. Andysurtees (talk) 02:56, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

Danny Cohen (television executive) → Danny Cohen – The TV exec seems to be the primary topic? Andysmith248 (talk) 11:58, 21 March 2019 (UTC)--Relisting. – Ammarpad (talk) 16:11, 29 March 2019 (UTC)
- Support this idea. Buster Reynolds (talk) 12:14, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose. The Daniel Cohen disambiguation page has no WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and lists three entries for men named Danny Cohen and also three for Dan Cohen (plus one for Dan Baron Cohen). The television executive is not an internationally renowned celebrity and does not have a public profile of such towering leadership and achievement as to be considered unquestionably above the other two same-named men. A similar discussion is also currently active at Talk:Dan Cohen#Requested move 21 March 2019. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 17:29, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
- Strong oppose no evidence presented and "Danny Cohen" search in GBooks shows no case for move whatsoever. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:04, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
"President of Access Entertainment" section
editHello. I would like to make the following suggestions to update the "President of Access Entertainment" section:
- In the first sentence, it is inaccurate and reductive to refer to "industrialist Len Blavatnik." Instead, please change to "businessman and philanthropist Len Blavatnik" or simply "Len Blavatnik."
- Change the second and third sentences, which vaguely refer to the company's "ambition" and how much money it "aims to invest," to the more factual and concise: "The company's stated aim was to be 'one of the world's leading independent investors in the entertainment media sector.'"[1] And follow that with an additional sentence on the entertainment categories in which the company invests: "Access Entertainment invests in content for theatre, film, television, gaming, the creator economy and the visual arts."[2]
- Please add the following sentence on Cohen's role in A24 films:
- Under Cohen's leadership, Access has invested in the production company A24, and, alongside Blavatnik, he has been named as executive producer on several A24 films, including Beau is Afraid, The Iron Claw and the Oscar-winning film The Zone of Interest.[3]
