Notes[edit]
Opening blurb—
Outdated information: says CommonBond loans to 20 MBA programs rather than Title IV non-profit MBA, graduate, and undergraduate programs. [1]
Profile box—
Started in November 2012 (says 2011) [2]
History—
Second paragraph – Refer to Series A financing round as such [3] add that CommonBond also expanded the number of MBA programs to which it lends in March 2014. [4]
Third paragraph – should be 700 graduate programs [5]
This needs to be updated, there’s nothing after 2015 (Series C ([6]) and D ([7]) financing, CB4B launch ([8]), students loans for grads and undergrads ([9]))
Need information about Social Promise/Impact in Action trip [10]
Products and Services—

Inquiry about changes to CommonBond's Wikipedia page[edit]
Hello, my name is Scott Fried, and I'm content marketing manager at CommonBond. I understand that a few years ago, my predecessors hired a third party named PlotSpoiler (later blocked for using multiple accounts) to make edits to CommonBond's Wikipedia page, and those edits were inappropriate. I don't have much more information on what happened at the time--this took place before my boss or I started working for the company, and in fact, before most of our current staff worked here. If necessary, I can reach out to our accounting team and try to determine made those edits.
Having been mentored by David King of Ethical Wiki, I now understand the proper guidelines for submitting changes to Wikipedia and I am determined to adhere to the rules and regulations. Moving forward, I hope to improve this page in clear and transparent way that complies with all rules.
I'm also pinging editors that have been previously involved in this project: @Scope creep: @Smartse: @Steevven1: @Melcous:

- Hi Scott at CommonBond, I have left a message on your talk page. Hope that helps. scope_creep (talk) 14:50, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Scope creep: Hi, I'm sorry if there were any confusions about the citations that were listed at the end of the talk page. Those were from an edit that I had attempted before I understood proper protocol.
- I would like to share a draft [1]as a replacement page for CommonBond. This version has more meticulous sourcing and fewer product names, and I'm hoping that it addresses the issues that warranted the tag at the top of the current article. If you could look it over at your convenience, I would greatly appreciate it.Scott at CommonBond (talk) 20:44, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
- I will take a look, just found it. scope_creep (talk) 22:39, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
- Scott at CommonBond, I had a look at that draft, you would have to submit it to WP:Afc. It has a number of problems with references including /sites forbes domains which Non RS as they are user generated. You wont be able to remove the paid tag on the article. The new article will still have it as well. scope_creep (talk) 21:01, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
