History[edit]

The history section reads like a WP:COATrack for PR about the firm. That needs to go down to a paragraph or two. All those sections are downright silly. A section listing (but not going in to this ridiculous level of depth) awards would be fine too.

The same goes for the partnerships. The sections are superfluous. Toddst1 (talk) 16:21, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Based on comments on my talk page, I've gone ahead and cleaned up those sections. If you disagree with these changes please discuss them here before undoing them, but first read WP:COI and WP:ADVERT. Thanks. Toddst1 (talk) 20:16, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Going on your logic of superfluous, would you agree that the "Criticisms/Glitch" section goes into a "ridiculous level of depth" and be edited down as well. Totally Rock (talk) 16:57, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the history section could use a bit of expansion. A few of the details could probably be added back in. We would just need to make sure a we don't re-add excessive amounts of information and give the added information proper weight. Alpha_Quadrant ^(talk) 17:10, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I trimmed the glitches section some - feel free to trim it further. As far as the history, I'm fine with expanding it. I took a machete to it for obvious reasons. Feel free to fix it if I went too far. Toddst1 (talk) 17:15, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My glitches edits were removed for eliminating too much detail. I still kept in the specifics of the glitches, i just removed the timeline. It seems that timelines of November 2004, January 14, 2005, and January 30, 2005 seems to go into "a ridiculous level of depth." I'm just trying to put consistency. Since product release timelines are superfluous, it would be safe to argue that software glitches timelines are superfluous as well. Totally Rock (talk) 21:00, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

So Rock, it appears you are in some way connected with the company, correct? Toddst1 (talk) 21:16, 13 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Correct, I am connected with the company. By that token, I am trying to be true to the policies of Wikipedia and following the advice WP:SCOIC. I'm not trying to push an agenda, I'm just trying to ensure balance and consistent level of information. Totally Rock (talk) 22:36, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
