Appreciate the feedback SwisterTwister. I'll be updating the page soon with additional independent coverage as per the request.

Hello! Lenticularphoto, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Misplaced Pages where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! JSFarman (talk) 16:32, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

The Scene

Hi, and thanks for your email. I just reread the article and while I think you meet notability it feels pretty advertorial to me. I'll leave notes on the article draft page. Thanks! Julie JSFarman (talk) 00:28, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

I take it back. I started to leave notes on the draft page and I had a note for nearly every assertion of the article. It needs a complete rewrite. Don't use flowery language, don't use adjectives, don't include anything that isn't a straight-ahead fact. If it would work in a marketing brochure, it probably doesn't belong in a Misplaced Pages article JSFarman (talk) 00:45, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

I just thought I should check

Regarding your edits at FXCM, they look like the type of edits a paid editor might make, in an area of Misplaced Pages that has been subjected to a lot of paid editing. May I ask if you are a paid editor? If so, you you need to declare your paid status per our Terms of Use (see:WP:Paid). You should also read WP:COI. I hope this eliminates any possible confusion.

:@Smallbones: - My issues pertaining to the FXCM page have derived purely from either insufficient citations or other users references to a breach in Misplaced Pages's guidelines. Note the following examples:

Recentism - From the article - "Articles overburdened with documenting controversy as it happens." While the latest news relating to FXCM's regulatory issues in the United States are certainly to be addressed on this page, having them become the focus of the introductory sentence and occupy the entirety of the first paragraph opposes the Recentism guidelines.

"that has been banned in the United States for "fraudulent misrepresentation" to its customers" - Smallbones - This quote that was removed by myself was removed due to a lack of citation to which you responded, "obviously from the court order", how is it obvious that is from anything without a citation? Only now has a citation been added to this revision.

I am not commercially remunerated for making edits to this page. I am purely interested ensuring that the pages I edit are as neutral and factual as can be (in accordance to Misplaced Pages guidelines). If you can provide me with reasons as to why I was at fault to question the changes referenced above then I would be happy to hear them.

In addition, I've just come across a review (I'm not sure if this has been responded to or not) of changes you have made to this page by user Gouyoku - https://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:FXCM#.22Full_Review.22_of_2017.2F04.2F26 - Being accused of commercial affiliation here is a little unjust when I am not the only one who is questioning some of your amendments to this page. Your thoughts most welcome. --Lenticularphoto (talk) 19:49, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
