  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Sergei Viktorovich Popov, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! TushiTalk To Me 15:43, 20 December 2016 (UTC) Good morning. Thank you for your comments about the Popov article update. Apologies but as a new user, it has taken me a while to figure out how to respond to you. As I said in the summary of the changes, my only interest is in bringing the bio up to date, as it is currently factually incorrect. I shall endeavour to find suitable references, though the obvious ones like Bloomberg and Forbes are also, as you may note, out of date. The first half of my update should be uncontroversial as it recaps information already in the original version you have restated. I note that this version has almost no references. The facts are not disputed. I have simply sort to add some more factual detail as I think it is helpful. As for the new information in the second half, the key facts are that Popov has now disposed of all his business interests and holds no more directorships. Sources are difficult as many common ones such as Bloomberg, Forbes etc have not updated their own information on this final point. I shall endeavour to provide references that show this to be the case. With regard to resigning all directorships, there is clearly no single public reference to back up this statement. However, anyone going through the lists of companies will see that Sergei Popov no longer features on any of their boards. I'll do my best. Let me know if it works. Not sure if I have done this correctly. Sedjeplace (talk) 17:39, 21 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
