Request for article review
Hey, I saw you made some edits on Y Combinator page and wondered if you would be kind enough to review and possibly accept my draft Draft:South_Park_Commons. Thanks! Saphelion (talk) 14:01, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
- Happy Thanksgiving. I highly recommend you submit the article for review through the Articles for Creation process and get feedback from more experienced new article reviewers. (See here for reference.)
- In my view, there are some issues related to WP:NPOV. A more experienced reviewer can advise on this.
- As a side note, I'm not suggesting you used AI, but I have noticed that AI likes to write sentences similar to this one in your article: "It has been described by technology publications as an "anti-incubator" due to its focus on individual talent rather than specific business ideas."
- The reason I find these problematic is because it says "technology publications" (plural) yet it only includes a single citation from one outlet (in this case, TechCrunch). (And based on this article from Business Insider, it reads to me that the firm calls itself an "anti-incubator" rather than reporters describing it that way.)

VC Firm Update
Hi Zxm92, I am working to update the page of Lux Capital, an NYC based Venture Capital firm. I posted some suggestions here: Talk:Lux Capital#Suggested edits for the History Section. Since you are a member of WikiProject Private Equity, I thought you might be interested in having a look. Another editor pointed out that some of the sources are paywalled, so for convenience I have included direct quotes that can be found here: Talk:Lux Capital#Revision proposal 2
Thanks, NazLux (talk) 15:46, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
- Hi Zxm92, thanks for adding the wikilink to the Lux Capital page. Have you had a chance to review my request here? Thanks! NazLux (talk) 16:03, 16 December 2025 (UTC)
- I took a look, and while some of the individual facts may be verifiable, I’d be more comfortable with an experienced editor addressing your request. To me, the article reads a bit like a stub with an oversized directory-style list, and adding a set of (mostly) positive, selective details before the page has a more standard structure and balance risks coming across as promotional, even if sourced.
- I’d like a more experienced editor weighing in first, both on restructuring the page and on whether any of your requested items merit brief, neutrally worded inclusion. (I think at least some of them likely will.)
- Just my two cents: I’d expand the lead (per MOS:LEAD) and maybe reorganize History into a few chronological subsections. After that, it will be easier to assess what, if anything, from your proposal fits.
- Another way I look this: If someone is looking for a genuine encyclopedic entry on your firm, what information would they expect to find, and can then currently find it in this version of the article? To me, the answer is no. And I’d like that answer to be yes before looking to include details like a high-profile individual who joined. Zxm92 (talk) 15:04, 21 December 2025 (UTC)
Revert of my link expansion to Hillhouse Investment
Hi @Zxm92! I see that you reverted my edits and I see the rationale. To be sincere, I am a little upset that my work was in vain. Since those sources are valid, do you think a simple one sentence listing substantial investments in 2020-2025 will suffice? I can research more to find other deals, and simply list them separated by comma. What do you think? DaffyJZ (talk) 14:41, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
- Hi @DaffyJZ - thanks for the thoughtful note, and I'm sorry the revert landed as wasted effort. The underlying question you raise is a fair one, and it reaches further than your specific edit.
- The heart of it sits with the "Notable investments" section as a whole. WP:NOTDIRECTORY asks articles to avoid becoming an indiscriminate listing of an organization's transactions. A firm the size of Hillhouse Investment has made hundreds of investments. The section has grown into a long roster, much of it resting on single deal announcements — so your instinct (these deals are listed, why not these others?) points to a real inconsistency already in the article.
- A clear example of that inconsistency: Baidu appears in this article's own lead, sourced, as one of Hillhouse's prominent holdings, yet it has no entry under "Notable investments." Meanwhile Little Freddie, a niche baby-food brand, has one. Selections like that suggest the section grew by accretion, with each deal added when a press release happened to be handy, rather than by any consistent measure of significance. That is the WP:DUE / WP:PROPORTION concern in concrete form — the list should reflect the weight independent sources assign, and right now it doesn't track that at all.
- On your specific proposal, the core question stays open, namely which deals belong and on what basis. The word "substantial" is where I'd gently push back, since it would set a size threshold that we as editors would be choosing, which drifts toward WP:OR (and that's another reason I don't like the section titled "Notable Investments"). I'd anchor inclusion instead to the significance independent secondary sources assign.
- The test I'd suggest is that a deal earns a place when independent secondary sources cover it in depth and over time, with analysis of what the deal meant and changed beyond the announcement. WP:CORPDEPTH treats routine deal announcements as coverage that carries little weight, which fits entries built from a single news item. Please also see WP:CORPTRIV for context on this.
- For what it's worth on your additions: Samty Holdings has a plausible case, given a $1.1 billion acquisition reported in more than one well-known (and non-niche) outlet. Quest Global looks thinner (a minority stake of undisclosed size sourced to a single trade item). That's my read, and it's the kind of call worth testing with more eyes.
- Which brings me to a suggestion: would you be up for moving the discussion to Talk:Hillhouse Investment? I'd open a thread laying out the section-wide question, and we could invite editors who've worked on the article (and new editors) to weigh in. A consensus there will hold up far better than anything you or I settle one-on-one, and it gives your research the right forum. Happy to start the thread and ping you in — just say the word. Zxm92 (talk) 15:11, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
- Let's do so. Your rationale is well-based, but I think that the likes of Samty Holdings should be included given the size of the transaction, and also the fact that they received coverage while hundrends of other deals did not. DaffyJZ (talk) 13:46, 3 June 2026 (UTC)
- Sounds good — I'll open a thread at Talk:Hillhouse Investment and ping you so we can work it through with others. Zxm92 (talk) 19:22, 4 June 2026 (UTC)

Attracting more female contributors
Hi Zxm92. I see you joined Women in Red in the first quarter of 2025 and are still active. In view of the small number of female editors, we are trying to encourage more women to take part. In view of your own positive experience, we would like to suggest you invite one or more female friends to join up. You could, for example, help them register on their own equipment if you are in personal contact but you could also just send them a message along these lines:
- I think you might be interested in becoming an editor of Wikipedia where you can contribute to improvements yourself. I have been an active editor for some time and find the experience rewarding. As most contributors male, we really need to encourage more women to join up as editors. Please let me know if you are interested or simply go ahead and sign up yourself. You can find out how to do so here
Please let me know whether you have any success and send me the user names of any of your female friends who register.--Ipigott (talk) 10:52, 8 October 2026 (UTC).
