It looks like a sockpuppet account edited this page in March. But there have been many edits since then. I disagree that this was the correct action. I will double check refs. Looks like relevant information about the individual is on the page. And does not seem promotional.
@Drsammyjohnson: As explained in my edit summary, any worthwhile edits since March were incorporated into the partial rollback. The sock had an obvious COI looking at the diffs here, here and here. That behavior is not tolerated on WP nor should it be rewarded because other edits (again, incorporated within the rollback) have been made since March. I highly doubt it's a coincidence that WP:SPAs propping up Rad as the sole founder of Tinder on WP are doing so in multiple places. Tangledupinbleu chs (talk) 18:44, 4 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Tangledupinbleu chs: You reverted the page again even though unique edits with RS were added. This is not the proper move the original information is INCORRECT. Please ADD information to the page if you think it needs to be updated, as I have. I have researched, referenced and cleaned up the page. Continuous reverting looks like vandalism.
Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section, the information you keep reverting to should not be in the lead. Being named in a lawsuit brought against a company (MATCH/IAC) does not constitute a significant controversy for a BLP lead. Additionally, the information in the lead is INCORRECT. He wasn't fired, he returned as CEO in 2016 and was Chairman until 2017. In addition, the quotes were not attributed to him they were attributed to his co-founder - also making this lead INCORRECT. I will provide additional RS to support this.
It would be appreciated if you were to HELP the page vs. continously reverting to INCORRECT information. Drsammyjohnson (talk) 14:46, 9 November 2021 (UTC)DrSammyJohnsonReply
There is nothing remotely vandalous about combatting a conflict of interest. Tangledupinbleu chs (talk) 16:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
You're adding the COI to deflect. This is insane. Show me one other page where someone named in a civil Lawsuit against a company - not against them is in their lead. One page. Also this is NOT the biggest lawsuit. Why is this the ONLY lawsuit you want in the lead? Why not the others? Please provide a reason. Your deflection is laughable.
