thread_title:  Current executive faculty -- not notable? 

message: Hi all, per my request above, I'm working on behalf of NADA as part of my work at Beutler Ink and have some updates to suggest for this article.  As I have a financial conflict of interest, I will not be making edits to the article myself and hope others will review my proposed edits and make them if they look ok.
The article still mentions the "Used Car Guide", however this was sold in 2015. I'd like to propose the replacement of the following existing text, with a new sentence summarizing the sale:
:Text to replace:  
:New sentence: 
In addition to the above edit, I propose the following change to wording in the Operations section to reflect the sale of the Used Car Guide:
:Current text: NADA  serves dealers  by  providing an advocacy association to represent dealerships before the US Congress and other government agencies. In addition, to further consumer education regarding vehicle financing, NADA is a supporter of Americans Well-informed on Automobile Retailing Economics (AWARE).
:Proposed updated text: 
Also, reference #3 is a bad URL, so I suggest replacing with this alternative source that supports the information. Here's the markup for the citation:

thread_title:  Update re: Used Car Guide sale 

message: Hi again, per my requests above, I am here on behalf of NADA as part of my work at Beutler Ink and have some suggestions to update this article. Due to my COI, I will not edit the article directly and hope an editor will review and make the changes if appropriate.
I'd like to request an addition to the Operations section to note the organization's annual convention. The convention is the organization's major annual event that is has run for over 40 years, making it—I believe—noteworthy for inclusion in the article:

thread_title:  Suggested addition re: annual convention 

message: Hi again! Following up on my requests above (thanks again to Dormskirk for reviewing and making those edits), I've been working on an expanded draft article to improve this page further. 
You can see the full draft in my user space here and you can see a comparison of the draft with the current article 
As I mentioned in my previous request, the current article is lacking detail about the organization, so I've worked to provide a neutral overview of NADA's mission, history, and activities. Key updates:
*The NADA website is used as a source throughout the current article, which also includes non-functioning URLs, so I've worked to improve sourcing throughout
*The proposed Overview section describes who the organization represents, the American Truck Dealers division, and the annual convention, which has attracted many notable guests over the past 40 years
*The History section provides much more detail about the organization's activities, which is severely lacking in the current article
*I've reworked the Charitable activities section
*Finally, I've integrated details about Hillary Clinton into the NADA Show section since the payment for the keynote speech was not a campaign donation and does not fit under that current heading
Is there a neutral editor who is willing to review the draft and make the changes if appropriate? (Please note that I've hidden the logo and disabled categories for the draft in my userspace, but if an editor moves the whole draft across these will need to be fixed.) As always, I'm happy to discuss the draft and questions or concerns here or on my talk page. Thanks! 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI)  02:15, 30 June 2017 (UTC)
