Talk:Sfil: Difference between revisions – Wikipedia

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Nice work

Hello, I have been contacted by Sfil to update this page. It is therefore a paid contribution. It comes from a translation of the French version, that I also wrote. I have tried to respect WP:NPOV, to write an exhaustive article with all the information available to me and to quote as many different sources as possible (unfortunately mainly in French, sorry). However, if you think it could be improved, I’m open to any suggestions or comments you may have. I will respond to all requests here or on my discussion page. Thanks!

@Jul.H:, the one thing I will suggest which could possibly avoid your concern listed here is to request the changes on the talk page per WP:COIREQUEST. I will take a look over the content later today and see if any cleanup is needed and if the tag(s) can be removed. —CNMall41 (talk) 07:06, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I think I followed the guidelines, but it seems that they differ significantly from one wiki to another (I mainly contribute to the French one). Thank you anyway! Jul.H (talk) 09:16, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jul.H:, you technically did follow the guidelines. However, if you implement the edits directly it is common that someone removes or tags it until an unbiased editor can review which is what I am offering to do here. It is possible that French Wikipedia handles things differently. So again, if you want to avoid these types of tags in the future, I would suggest to request the implementation of your edits through the talk page. —CNMall41 (talk) 20:14, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@CNMall41: yes, on French Wikipedia, the rule is to allow free contributions and then intervene afterwards if necessary. This avoids waiting indefinitely for a response on the talk page in cases where an article is not viewed very often (but it raises other questions). But I will use the talk page in the future, thank you! Jul.H (talk) 08:58, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jul.H:, Theoretically that should work on English Wikipedia as well. The problem is that there has (or at least had) been so much bad-faith editing that it is highly frowned upon to edit directly. Again, not a requirement, but helps avoid the tags, reverts, etc. Cheers!–CNMall41 (talk) 15:48, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @CNMall41! sorry, I have one last request: I’m good with all the cutting you did (thank you again for your help) but I would have liked to keep a few sentences you deleted here, since it gives more context for the first ones and it explains the role of a subsidiary (already mentioned before my contribution) for the last one.

• The guarantee on the loans was previously provided by the French State itself, but it was up to the contractor to find and negotiate with the banks. The aim of this new system is to promote the export competitiveness of French companies at a lower cost.




• It has a local subsidiary, Caffil (Caisse Française de Financement Local), which provides financing for loans to the local sector.

Do you think they could be reintegrated, with a rewriting if necessary? Thank you! Jul.H (talk) 09:54, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

See this. I also added back that it was a third of its business by 2024 since it shows the history of the company and where its activities progressed. I also added back two of the sources previously removed. —CNMall41 (talk) 17:51, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for that! Jul.H (talk) 06:43, 30 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve listed this article for peer review because it is a paid contribution (and a translation from the French article that I also wrote). Even if I tried to respect WP:NPOV as much as possible, the text may not be perfectly neutral.

Thanks! Jul.H (talk) 06:33, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Jul.H, are you still interested in comments here, or can this be closed? If you are, you might want to reach out to some of the WikiProjects listed on the talk page for assistance. Let me know either way! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 16:48, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @TechnoSquirrel69, yes I’m still interested in a review. I’ll reach out to some project members as you suggested, but I don’t see many other options if it doesn’t work. I’ll let you know. Tank you! Jul.H (talk) 17:44, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@TechnoSquirrel69:, I think I removed most, if not all, of the promotional tone. I did not verify every source, but the half dozen that I did verify supported the content. —CNMall41 (talk) 21:42, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
