thread_title:  Map is wrong 

message: Hi, I'm here to propose updates throughout this article. I bring up this discussion on behalf of Accenture as part of my work at Beutler Ink (as disclosed above). 
Specifically, I propose these content changes (updates and new material in ; deletions in ; all citations updated):
# In the introduction, updating the end of the first paragraph with: "Accenture's current clients include  of the Fortune Global 100 and more than three-quarters of the Fortune Global 500." (I acknowledge the primary source here, but I'm seeking to update the text and source already used in the article)
# In History, adding: ""
# In Services and operations, updating Accenture Operations to remove , as "security" is not mentioned in the source cited. Security actually falls under Accenture Technology. If editors wish to move it there, I would appreciate the correction, but I understand this may not be possible due to a lack of secondary sources for verification.
# In Marketing, branding and identity, updating sentence to read: "As of , Interbrand ranked Accenture No.  on its list of best global brands."
# Updating some of the existing Awards and recognition list:
::*"In , Ethisphere Institute recognised Accenture for the  time"
::*"Fortune named Accenture one of the 100 Best Companies to Work For from 2009 to "
::*"In , Fortune magazine named it as the world's most admired Information Technology Services company"
Pinging 15 in case you are interested, since you reviewed a similar request last year. Thanks, Inkian Jason (talk) 15:26, 7 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks again! Let me take a look around and see what I can do to help with the concerns you raise about #1 and #2. Inkian Jason (talk) 16:23, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  I appreciate your patience here. I looked further into issue #1. Unfortunately, I do not have any third-party sources that verify this information. I can make another request to update that info if such a source becomes available. For issue #2, I agree the section needs improvement, and understand why you wouldn't want to insert "a good bit into a bad section". Here's a potential fix in the meantime: Would you consider adding David Droga to the Key people parameter of the infobox, after "Julie Sweet (Chair and CEO)"? Thanks, Inkian Jason (talk) 14:11, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Spring 2022 updates 

message: The Enron Scandal is the actual reason why the name was changed to Accenture. Why is there no mention of this in the entry? 2607:FEA8:8643:B400:5180:8EC0:6AB8:3D4F (talk) 20:41, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: The name change was legally mandated in 1998, several years before the Enron scandal broke. Already during the 1990s, Andersen Consulting and Arthur Andersen were two entirely separate legal entities, outside of AC having to pay AA damages for making more money while still using the Andersen name. Which was part of the reason for the suit already started during the mid-90s that led to the name change, which in turn occured years before the scandal caused by AA, not by AC. No employee of AC ever had anything to do with Enron whatsoever, at least not post-1989. --2003:EF:170A:9244:9D8E:96E:A918:6897 (talk) 17:51, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

text: I agree. It was a very public event at the time and the consulting wing, already separate, wanted to isolate themselves further from the scandals associated with Arthur Andersen's failed financial audit of Enron. Stevenmitchell (talk) 18:34, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
