• 04:3204:32, 10 January 2024 diff hist +404 Eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD →Nature of the eruption: This, like other appearances of material on Pliny and the eruption, is very poorly sourced, given the available scholarly work on this subject. This, like the shorter descriptions that link to it, violates WP:VERIFY and likely WP:OR. This is all material thrust on readers with a demand for trust, in defiance of Wikipedia's disclaimer, policies, which state its veracity comes from its sources. Worse, this appears to have been going on for years, without resolution.
• 04:1804:18, 10 January 2024 diff hist +263 Stabiae →The Eruption of 79 AD: Noting fact that material in this section is essentially unverifiable, apart from account of Pliny's death given in primary source—and there we have no modern scholarly, secondary source indicating that account should be believed. Closing volcanology material is also unverifiable; source of last sentence is unclear (drawn from Francis & Oppenheimer or other), and fact that no pg no. in that long book is given also violates WP:VERIFY.

• 01:2401:24, 8 January 2024 diff hist +417 Phil Wickham Noting that the issue with WP:OR and WP:VERIFY is not restricted to one section, but rather characterises the article on the whole. Tag: possible unreferenced addition to BLP
• 01:1201:12, 8 January 2024 diff hist +185 Phil Wickham →Biography: Noting continuation of the trend in this section, to violate WP:OR and WP:VERIFY, and add first hand knowledge (instead of working from verifiable sources).

• 04:1504:15, 29 December 2023 diff hist +134 Family office →History: Completed Bloomberg citation, including replacing dead URL redirect.

• 02:2402:24, 29 December 2023 diff hist +236 Outcome Health →History: Calling for an actual history of the company.

• 20:0720:07, 26 December 2023 diff hist +17 Talk:Ballet dancer This is not a C-class. It lacks sources for almost all statements, and its scope, structure, and content are inadequate to the title subject appearing.
• 20:0220:02, 26 December 2023 diff hist +972 Talk:Ballet dancer →Male coryphée?
• 19:5519:55, 26 December 2023 diff hist +161 Talk:Ballet dancer →Some possible corrections...: Reply Tag: Reply
• 19:5219:52, 26 December 2023 diff hist +80 Ballet dancer Article as a whole is tagged. Problem has been going on since 2020, likely since its original writing. Please, hold this article to Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Otherwise it is just space-filling, and useless to educators.
• 19:5019:50, 26 December 2023 diff hist +46 Ballet dancer →Gendered titles: And here. Rampant violation of WP:VERIFY and WP:ORIGINAL RESEARCH.
• 19:4919:49, 26 December 2023 diff hist +44 Ballet dancer →Injuries: And again here.
• 19:4819:48, 26 December 2023 diff hist +2 Ballet dancer →Hierarchic titles: Tag moved up; problem is general to the whole of the section. Same comments of last edit apply.
• 19:4719:47, 26 December 2023 diff hist +857 Ballet dancer →Changes in terminology: Noted need for full source, page numbers. Noting that the rest of the material in the section is devoid of sourcing. In case it needs be said, none of this is "sky is blue" content, and as historical and interpretive critical content, it is subject to question, must be sourced. Please don't source for convenience, just to remove tags. Sources must actually present the factual content of section. If content differs from source, content must be edited to source.
• 19:2219:22, 26 December 2023 diff hist +4 Theology of Pope Francis →Morality as a vehicle of God's mercy: Technical edits. Changed markup for one blockquote to avoid awkward presentation of its source. Moved a tag intended for sections or articles to the top of the section into which it had been inserted, correcting the message text to be appropriate to a section.
• 14:2314:23, 26 December 2023 diff hist +31 Henry Samueli →Broadcom stock options investigation: Repaired a citation dead link and completed the citation using {{cite markup, to standard.
• 14:0914:09, 26 December 2023 diff hist +79 Henry Samueli →Broadcom stock options investigation: Copyediting. Removed duplicated "as well as" expression within same sentence, added standard punctuation preceding quote elements contained within sentences, converted the longest quote segment into a blockquote, removed unnecessary quotation marks around the single word, expunged, and moved the placement of the inline citation to a more standard place, repeating it to make clear all quoted content is from this same source.
• 14:0014:00, 26 December 2023 diff hist +5 Henry Samueli →Broadcom stock options investigation: As a general rule, one does not begin text paragraphs with a symbol representation of a number.
• 13:5713:57, 26 December 2023 diff hist −19 Henry Samueli →Broadcom stock options & financial crimes investigation: Reduced the unnecessary length of this section title, removing the non-standard ampersand in the process.
• 13:5513:55, 26 December 2023 diff hist +165 Broadcom Corporation →Raspberry Pi: Content meaning is unclear, specifically with regard to referencing "the last". Otherwise, concern is same as last edit, except that here, the previously appearing source, now hidden, is not really a source at all. [It was simply a link to the "About us" page of the organization's website, and not the source of the sentence content.]
• 13:4713:47, 26 December 2023 diff hist +24 Broadcom Corporation →Linux products: Noting that the closing sentence is not "sky is blue" content, needs a source.
• 13:4513:45, 26 December 2023 diff hist +264 Broadcom Corporation →Stock options backdating scandal: Placing this tag reluctantly, because a better, more specific tag should be available. But it appears the redundancy/repetition tag of old has been oddly deleted with a redirect to copyediting (which confounds content editing with copyediting). So, this was the best I could do, in terms of calling attention to the problem. If a better, more specific tag exists, feel free to swap it in.
• 13:3513:35, 26 December 2023 diff hist +86 Talk:Broadcom Corporation Adjusted company and computing importances. Rationale: Parent company acquires another co., which now as subsidiary significantly shapes the business of the parent (e.g., VMWare acquisition). If the acquired business has an importance higher than that originally assigned the parent, the parent now, through the acquisition, increases to the level of importance of the acquired subsidiary.
