Ziff Davis[edit]
The Ziff Davis article has been on clean-up for about a year, and they are a pretty big company in the internet technology news field. I've tried to make some improvements in the past hour or so, and I'd like tips on how my fellow editors and I can improve it further. - CaptainAmerica 02:49, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
A fair-use representation of their logo would add some recognition at the start of the article.Mfields1 00:45, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
- Done. CaptainAmerica 00:57, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- A graphic showing their growth by decade or year, either in revenue or number of publications or some way to show the change in size of the company.
Make a link to Davis and start an article on him.
- Done. CaptainAmerica 01:10, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- Overall more graphics that are not so busy, at the top of the article. You might have to look for better cover examples with different colors. They don't look good.
- The article could benefit from some additional sources (non web-based).
- The article leaves me wondering, what did Ziff Davis do from 1927 until 1938? That's a big gap. Then it seems a large gap exists until 1952.
In the history section, it is subtitled 'Fiction and Hobbyist Magazines" but the last paragraph discusses broadcasting. Maybe that should be a separate subheading?If the company has split into two or more divisions (e.g. publishing and web-based) maybe there's a way to show this differently. It might be possible to discuss the changes by decades. Mfields1 01:00, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
