COI edit requests

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Hi! I'm a COI editor for Yahoo Finance, here with some edit requests for this article:

  • Move this article to Yahoo Finance (removing the exclamation point from the title) per WP:COMMONNAME and the vast majority of media coverage, including the coverage currently cited in the article and the majority of the coverage – particularly more recent coverage – cited below.
  • In the infobox, update "Type of site" from "News & entertainment" to "News and finance".
  • In the infobox, update "Key people" parameter from
Joanna Lambert, General Manager (2018–present)
to
Tapan Bhat (President and General Manager)
  • Update

to
It provides financial news, data, and commentary, including stock quotes, press releases, financial reports, original content, and the "Morning Brief" email newsletter.
  • Update

to
It also offers online tools for personal finance management, including portfolio tracking, interactive charts, and stock screening.
  • Delete
It is ranked 20th by SimilarWeb on the list of largest news and media websites.
I think the Comscore ranking and traffic overview immediately below is more relevant here; "news and media websites" is an unhelpfully broad category, and from what I gather, Comscore is more of the industry standard ranking than Similarweb.
  • Add to end of first paragraph:
Comscore ranked Yahoo Finance as the number 1 most popular financial news and research site in 2008, a ranking it has continued to maintain as of May 2024. As of April 2024, the site had approximately 150 million monthly active users.
  • Update
Yahoo! Finance video content has been made available via connected TVs and devices, including Apple TV, Samsung TV Plus, Roku, and YouTube.
to
Yahoo Finance video programs have been made available via connected TVs and devices, including Apple TV, Samsung TV Plus, YouTube, Amazon Freevee, and DirecTV.
  • Add to end of lead:
The organization also produces multiple podcasts. A Yahoo Finance mobile app, originally launched in 2011, is available on various platforms, including iOS and Android. Yahoo Finance data is also integrated into the Stocks app built into iOS.
  • Add "History" section:
PC Meter ranked Yahoo Finance as the number 1 financial source on the web in 1997. The site began providing information on insurance plan options the following year through a partnership with InsWeb. In 2001, Yahoo Finance launched a subscription service providing access to real-time stock quotes, compared to the quotes on the free service provided on a 20-minute delay. The site stopped using ticker information from Reuters in favor of direct feeds from major U.S. exchanges in 2005. A 2006 redesign introduced interactive charts to the site, and it began offering free real-time stock quotes in 2008. In 2012, Yahoo Finance began a content-sharing partnership with CNBC, following a similar partnership with ABC News the previous year. Another redesign in 2013 added more personalization features to the site, with news and data tailored to a user's portfolio and browsing history.
Yahoo Finance began providing live video content in 2017 and expanded its video offerings in 2018. Apollo Global Management acquired Yahoo in 2021, stating an aim to grow the Yahoo Finance business. In August 2023, Yahoo acquired CommonStock, a San Francisco-based social platform for retail investors to share insights based on their linked brokerage accounts. The site introduced a redesign in November 2023. That same month, the company hosted the Yahoo Finance Invest conference, featuring Meredith Whitney and Jeff Zucker, among others.
  • Add "Recognition" section:
The Yahoo Finance app was a Webby Award honoree in 2017, and Yahoo Finance was an honoree in 2022. In 2023 and 2024, the New York Press Club gave Yahoo Finance awards for journalism.

Thank you for your time! Mary Gaulke (talk) 21:20, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: It seems to me that a large amount of the material you are seeking to add is basically a list (by proxy) of the features of the website. I do not really see that the features of the website have any encyclopaedic value. Similarly, the history of the development of the website has no encyclopaedic value. The purpose of those additions would appear to be promotional. Misplaced Pages is not a place for conflict of interest editors to list the features, bells and whistles of the thing that they have a conflict in relation to, or to detail where and how it can be accessed, etc.
I would suggest that you go back to the drawing board and come up with a new set of proposals that do not appear to be promotional. Axad12 (talk) 16:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
