I've restored the section listing the Board of Directors, which was previously removed by a (now blocked) sockpuppet of VentureKit. The original reason for the removal was "not enough independent sources," which is not required for such a list (and which could be independently verified anyway). See [1] for reference. --ΝΗΜΙΝΥΛΙ 17:44, 12 August 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Νημινυλι (talk • contribs) Reply[reply]
The board of directors has clear encyclopedic value; if you disagree, please seek consensus via this discussion.
Following are two reasons.
1. It's common for articles about major corporations to include a listing of the board of directors, so it appears to be consensus on Wikipedia that such a list has, at least in some cases, encyclopedic value. (For example, even within the same industry as IAC: Comcast, Warner Bros. Discovery, Amazon, Apple).
In cases where no explicit list is given, it's still common for the article to include a paragraph about current and former board members. So: if such information never had encyclopedic value, then high-traffic articles (such as those I gave as examples) would have lost lists and mentions of board members (qua board members) long ago.
If you object that not all of the list members are notable, then it's entirely appropriate to revise, if it suits you. But there does not appear to be sufficient reason to arbitrarily remove another editor's work without discussion, particularly when at least two editors over a period of multiple years have contributed to it.
As an aside: please note that in the SPI cited in my first comment here, it was concluded that the removing editor may have been performing undisclosed paid edits for an unnamed public relations firm. Personally, I doubt that would affect this particular section, as I can't imagine whose interest it would serve to remove this information from Wikipedia (especially as it is already published by the corporation itself). The removal was clearly inappropriate in the first place, and that is why I restored it--the SPI is essentially irrelevant, and I mentioned it only as it was incidental to the removal. --ΝΗΜΙΝΥΛΙ 04:44, 13 August 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Νημινυλι (talk • contribs) Reply[reply]
