Edit Request

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at P. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Please change “The EITI Standard is implemented in 52 countries” to “The EITI Standard is implemented in 55 countries”, source: https://eiti.org/countries

Additional information needed: Could you write which three countries have since joined to take it up to 55? I can see that there are now 55 at that webpage, but to expand the list in the "Member countries" section, I'd need the names of the three new countries to add.

@Seagull123: Thanks for flagging this.• Please change in the "Member countries" section: "As of September 2019, 52 countries are implementing the EITI:" to "As of January 2021, 55 countries are implementing the EITI:". https://eiti.org/countries •In the country list should be included Ecuador, Netherlands, Niger, Uganda.

Many thanks for taking into account these edits Comms wiki (talk) 11:05, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Comms wiki: as you've used the {{request edit}} template, I would like to ask what is the nature of your COI - if you have one? If you do have a COI, you must disclose it - you may want to read Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide and Wikipedia:Help available for editors with conflicts of interest. Seagull123 Φ 19:34, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Seagull123: Many thanks for replying. It's the first time I suggest edits in Wikipedia. I'm EITI's communications assistant. As far as I understand this position prevents me from editing EITI's Wikipedia page directly and some of the current information requires to be updated. Comms wiki (talk) 08:16, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Comms wiki: thanks for your reply. As you are employed by EITI, you must comply with English Wikipedia's paid-editing policy at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure. Please also make sure you properly disclose your COI, as described at WP:COIPAYDISCLOSE. In a minute, I'll leave a message at your user talk page with a longer message about COI editing, with links to other pages which may be useful for you. Seagull123 Φ 14:49, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Seagull123: Many thanks. I'll follow the instructions to comply with English Wikipedia's paid-editing policy.Comms wiki (talk) 12:18, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've also just gone through your requested edits. I've answered each bit of your request above - see my replies there for more. Seagull123 Φ 15:06, 5 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Seagull123: Many thanks for implementing these changes. I would like to suggest one more edit under the "Supporting companies" section. Please change: "Around 80 companies involved in oil, gas, and mining support the EITI" to "As of January 2020, 68 oil, gas and mining companies, financial institutions and commodity traders support the EITI", source: https://eiti.org/supporters/companies Thank you!
