This article seems pretty poorly written... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.54.176.34 (talk) 07:34, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you remove that you should remove any and all first uses sections and the article would basically be blank. The reason Michael Biggins / Blackout was added is because he is the internet's first live streamer which has been well established and documented from many various sources both print and online, and he was one of the first Periscope adopters on android. I am not him, which has also been well established in the talk pages on his wiki. He has his own account. Do some research. I am a streaming audio enthusiast who is probably old enough to be your grandfather so before you go making accusations and vandalizing (yes, removing entire chunks of relevant sections is considered vandalism - who voted you to be God... if you had issue, you should have taken it to the talk page first, not get delete trigger happy. Reinstating and putting a mark against your account for vandalism. By the way - you should also sign your name when you play Wiki God. Oh. You don't have one. Makes sense. Go away vandal. You now have one mark against your IP address. ManofThoth (talk) 16:07, 15 August 2015 (UTC) ManOfThoth[reply]

All of you who keep deleting Amanda Oleander and Michael Biggins from this page without going through this talk page are a bunch of vandals and I have set a bot to restore it every time you vandalise it. I am neither of these people. Pericope is ABOUT personalities and to list the two leading edge personalities is relevant and both have PLENTY of notable sources. Stop trolling and deleteing and do something with your life creative instead of destructive. ManofThoth (talk) 06:28, 25 August 2015 (UTC)ManofThoth[reply]

Safe to add logo?[edit]

I note that there is no picture of Periscope's logo, yet there is an entire section of the article devoted to it. Am I safe to add a low-resolution, fair-use image of their logo to the page to better inform those reading about it? I just thought I would check in case it had happened before and was removed due to copyright (although having checked the history, that doesn't seem to be the case). Thanks! -Schaea (talk) 21:51, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Periscope isn't completely removed[edit]

I was listening to a Twitter Spaces podcast today, and the stream originates from the pscp.tv URL. This leads me to believe that Periscope's technology was rebranded to Twitter, and Periscope is still used as a CDN. --LABcrabs (talk) 16:12, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
