COI disclosure

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

My name is Ilia Koldomasov, I am from Ukraine and work for Weild & Co as an external communications specialist. At the moment I want to improve this page according to WP:Paid, WP:COI and others. My previous revision has been rejected, so on this page I will notify you of the following changes that I think should be made.

First, the warning templates are vandalism and spam and require cleaning.

Secondly, the information about the JOBS Act is outdated. I suggest you update this using the following text and links:

Third, the information about personal life is not correct.

Wikipedia is not a spam basket, so we need a better and more correct version of this page. I personally will refrain from editing this page, and on the Talk page I will only offer changes. I hope that other participants will understand.

:Thanks for the disclosure, {{u|Koldomasov}}. The information about his personal life will need a reference to a reliable source, which you've not provided. I'm not sure how much information about the JOBS Act we need though - that's better covered at Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, whereas in this article we should be focusing just on Weild's role in it. In any case, please propose revisions and additions to the article here on the talk page so that they can be reviewed by editors who don't have a COI. There are instructions for doing this at WP:COIREQ. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:09, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

JOBS Act 3.0 Paragraph

In the U.S. there is bipartisan interest to improve capital formation given the decline in the number of start-ups and IPOs. David Weild presents as a JOBS Act 3.0 like a new form of the stock exchange - a “Venture Exchange” that would be optimized for small public companies, their investors, and the brokerage firms and investment banks required to support them.{{Cite web|date=2019-02-26|title=David Weild: The Collapse of the Small IPO is Undermining Entrepreneurship, Tokenization May Help Fix the Problem|url=https://www.crowdfundinsider.com/2019/02/144901-david-weild-the-collapse-of-the-small-ipo-is-undermining-entrepreneurship-tokenization-may-help-fix-the-problem/|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Crowdfund Insider|language=en-US}}

In 2009, Senator Kaufman gave a speech on the floor of the US Senate where he concluded, “The question, finally, is this: How can we create a market structure that works for a $25 million IPO — both in the offering and the secondary aftermarket. If we can answer that question, Mr. President, this country will be back in business.”{{Cite web|title=UD Library: Senator Ted Kaufman — Senator for Delaware: Newsroom - Press Release|url=http://green.lib.udel.edu/webarchives/kaufman.senate.gov/press/press_releases/release/-id=352c7e34-1cad-4ad3-b31c-c267bd492d1a.htm|access-date=2020-11-30|website=green.lib.udel.edu}}

JOBS Act 3.0 which was known the JOBS and Investor Confidence Act of 2008 passed the House in an overwhelmingly bipartisan manner (406-4).{{Cite web|last=Gonzalez|first=Guadalupe|date=2018-07-16|title=What Is the JOBS Act 3.0? New Bill Could Make It Easier to Go Public|url=https://www.inc.com/guadalupe-gonzalez/what-is-jobs-act-30-investor-confidence-act-2018.html|access-date=2020-11-30|website=Inc.com|language=en}} It was an omnibus bill that included legislation to create a new form of stock exchange (a “venture exchange”) but the legislation stalled in the Senate when the Trump Administration shut the budget process down over building the Wall and the legislation got stuck in limbo. This was an attempt to create an exchange that would incentivize the aftermarket support and distribution required to successfully bring back the small IPO.{{Cite web|last=Drive|first=Kevin M.

:{{not done}} As {{u|Cordless Larry}} said, I'm not sure the detailed history behind the JOBS act is specifically relevant to Weild's biography. In addition, I have some concerns that the proposed writing is not very neutral. P,TO 19104 (talk) (contribs) 01:02, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
