Talk:Lubrizol

message: FIRST FUEL ADDITIVE
This is factually incorrect and I have removed said claim. The Bell Performance company created the first fuel additive in 1909, predating the Lubrizol claim. Chancat74 (talk) 19:37, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

message: Editors, I am Maureen and I have a conflict of interest as I work for The Lubrizol Corporation. I started an account on Wikipedia to improve this article, which is quite outdated and gives undue weight to certain subjects. I am in the process of creating drafts to divide this article into sections to bring it in line with other company articles on Wikipedia. To start, I have created a History section and posted it in my user space. 
Can an editor, or editors, review the draft and move the edits into the live article if they are neutral and appropriately cited? 
I noted this on my user page, but I will write it again here in the spirit of transparency: I have edited this article directly from this account previously. That was before I was familiar with Wikipedia's conflict of interest rules and Terms of Use. Those three edits were posted in late 2015 (November 24, 2015; November 24, 2015; and December 8, 2015). Now that I understand the rules more clearly, my involvement will stay on Talk pages. Lz maor (Talk · COI--Lubrizol employee)  21:44, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

replies: text:  I see issues pertaining to WP:NPOV, WP:PEACOCK in sentences. E.g: "The 2000s saw The Lubrizol Corporation expand and diversify further. " -> It expanded operations and diversified in the 2000s by <doing what> ? . Hope the pointer is sufficient to identify such occurrences. Devopam (talk) 09:47, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  The sentence you mentioned was intended to be a transition sentence introducing the two sentences that follow it. But since you thought it appeared to be WP:POV or WP:PEACOCK, I have deleted it from the draft. Are there any other sentences you think are problematic that I should address? Thank you.

replies: text:   , have a look at the edit. If you don't have an objection (for incorrect/factual representation of facts) I will move it to the article. Devopam (talk) 04:30, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Your edits look good to me and I think the draft is ready to be moved into the live article. Thank you for working with me on this! Lz maor (Talk · COI--Lubrizol employee)  18:47, 5 January 2017 (UTC)

text: I see you were able to incorporate the History section. Thank you again for working with me on this. I will have more edit requests coming soon, including a proposed Operations section to organize information on current operations, ownership, leadership and key business segments.

thread_title:  Proposed ''History'' section 

message: Editors, I am here with another edit request. Since editors have been so helpful in improving this article and giving it some structure, the intro and infobox draft I added to my user page essentially ties a few loose ends. 
In the infobox, I'm looking to delete mention of oilfield solutions as a Division, as this is no longer correct. Secondly, Products can be listed as "Specialty chemicals, not "Lubricant additives and Speciality chemicals".
My draft adds a few tweaks to the existing intro. The changes include:
*Adding the word "The" to the company's first reference
*Changing the spelling "speciality" to "specialty"
*Adding medical devices 
 Could you also consider the appropriateness of the last two paragraphs of the History section? The manufacturing unit in India is just one part of our entire worldwide operations, and the Leetsdale, Pennsylvania, fire was a breaking news story with nearly no follow-up coverage, so I wonder if they should be included in an encyclopedia article. 
Lastly, we mention in History that Lubrizol created a third business segment, Lubrizol Oilfield Solutions, following the purchase of businesses from Weatherford International. Since that segment is no longer part of Lubrizol's business, can we add the following: 
*
Due to my stated COI, can an editor, or editors, review the draft and move the edits into the live article if they are neutral and appropriately cited? Lz maor (Talk · COI--Lubrizol employee)  19:31, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
