thread_title: Request edit

message: Hello, Wikipedia! My name is Richard Nelson, and I represent Corporate Communications for ACCO brands. As I have a clear conflict of interest (COI), I have opted to reach out here instead of editing the page directly. You have a great start on our company page thus far, and I would like to offer the following updates (per CREWE guidelines) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/90/CREWE_Wikipedia_Engagement_Flowchart.png  to you in the hopes of bringing our page up to date. All updates have citations to third-party announcements, company announcements, or 10K filing forms. Thank you for your consideration.

thread_title: Some proposed changes

message: #  The infobox figures and individual executives were updated.
#  The main prose of the article was not updated, as the proposed material essentially duplicates information already found on company-related portals.

message: Hello  spintendo , and thank you very much for implementing many of the changes I had requested. I understand the concern for avoiding duplicative information. Ideally, my hope is to aggregate all of the acquisitions in a single Wikipedia entry for ACCO as they all contribute to the worldwide footprint of the company. In this regard, I wonder if you might consider adding the paragraph below that plainly outlines the more recent acquisitions abroad. Thank you again for your consideration: 
ACCO expanded its presence in Australia and New Zealand with its 2016 acquisition of Pelikan Artline, added European business with the acquisition of Esselte in 2017https://seekingalpha.com/pr/16729275-acco-brands-completes-acquisition-esselte-group-holdings-ab and built business further in Mexico by acquiring GOBA International in 2018http://www.nbcrightnow.com/story/38445603/wired-news-acco-brands-to-buy-goba-internacional-for-31-million .

message: #  The claim mentioning the Esselte acquisition was added.
#  The claim regarding Pelikan was not added because it is unreferenced.
#  The claim involving GOBA International was not added because the provided link is invalid.

message: Hello  spintendo , great to talk to you again. I wanted to reach out to you with ACCO's updated financial numbers in the hopes of updating them on our page. I also realize I forgot the link to the Pelikan acquisition and provided an incorrect link to the GOBA acquisition, so I have provided those as well.

thread_title: 2018 Financial Updates

message: Given that the name of the company is "ACCO Brands", I was surprised to not find at least some names of their brands on the page.
Is addition of some brand names likely to be rejected with statements like "... was not updated, as the proposed material essentially duplicates information already found on company-related portals" (as in a previous Talk item)?
If so then would a sentence like "Some of the company's brands are mentioned on their Internet site" with a link to the site be acceptable?
