Editing of Datar-Mathews method for real option valuation

AngusWOOF, you are cited as an most recent editor for this web page article submission. I hardly know where to start this conversation, but let's begin.

First, there are two versions of this article. The first is one that was submitted and published by Wikipedia in March 2012 with minor revisions since. The second is an extension to the first (original) article that I submitted in Draft form to Wikipedia on or about Nov. 15, 2019. The second article contained some revisions to the original article plus extensive additions (3 sections) of new material including formulas, graphs and illustrations. I spent almost 6 months developing the second article including external review by SMEs. All of that seems to have disappeared and is now replaced with the original article but now includes various warnings, and none of the extensive additions.

Somehow in my efforts to follow Wikipedia protocol on revamping an older article (the original), I somehow not only lost significant work of the additions but seem to have set off a series of alerts. I am at loss as to how to respond, but here is what I propose as first steps:

Recover the full extent of the article material I submitted on Nov. 15, 2019. I do want to get that work back. Engage with me about how I may proceed to add or amend the original article (that of March 2012) with this new material of extensive additions. If there is a concern about COI, I am more than willing to answer all questions, though I assure you there is no COI involvement. Finally, how can I engage you (or someone) by text/phone/whatever so that these issues can be addressed and settle expeditiously?

Thank you for your involvement in this. MathewsSH (talk) 00:31, 6 December 2019 (UTC)Scott H Mathews[reply]

Notice of Conflict of interest noticeboard discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:10, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like there will be another discussion on COI as I notice updates to option pages. Limit-theorem (talk) 23:10, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am glad to have a financial mathematician involved in refining my Wikipedia submissions.

There is no COI as I understand it. This webpage is dedicated to a practical discussion of several financial mathematical patents, all of them referenced.

The only COI issue I can imagine surfaced when I submitted several years ago a revision to the original webpage, and I naively overwrote or recreated that original webpage along with the revision. It was my error as I was, and mostly still am, an amatuer Wikipedia page editor. I apologize for any missteps as I write my contribution. I can use your @Limit-theorem knowledgeable guidance.
