Microsoft Office Picture Manager doesn't run in Mac OS X as is written in the "Operating system support" table.

I have just proposed a YouTube Wikiproject that would cover any Articles relevant to YouTube People, Culture, Organisations and Business

I would love to get lots of support for this --- :D Derry Adama (talk)

List of C-family programming languages has grown absurdly long, mostly due to lack of sourcing and ambiguity regarding what puts a language in the C family. At Talk:List of C-family programming languages I am proposing that we limit the scope of the list to languages explicitly derived from the C standard. Please give your input.

I have created new Draft article State Encoding for Low Power which talks about the recent FSM design trend moving towards low power. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:State_Encoding_for_Low_Power. Please can you review it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rkd1205 (talk • contribs) 00:10, 26 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the contribution. I have accepted it. It seems to be related to DFA minimization and Finite-state_machine#Optimization so I have created some links. ~Kvng (talk) 18:28, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I work for a new cyber security start up and am looking to get some general information about our company on Wikipedia.

Obviously I cannot write it due to conflict of interest so I am hoping someone else can put together a quick company page.

Company: Red Canary, Inc. Type: Private Industry: Information Security Founded: February, 2014 Co-founders: Brian Beyer, Chris Rothe, Keith McCammon, Jason Garman Headquarters: Denver, CO Website: https://www.redcanary.co/

We would best fit into the Computer security companies section: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Computer_security_companies

Articles that explain Red Canary's offering: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/red-canary-closes-2-5-152100860.html http://pando.com/2015/03/26/red-canary-mixes-technology-and-human-intuition-to-help-companies-fight-cyber-threats/ http://www.networkworld.com/article/2902956/security0/startup-takes-the-effort-out-of-endpoint-detection-and-response.html http://www.builtincolorado.com/2015/03/27/red-canary-secures-25m-helps-customers-identify-actual-cyber-threats

Hi all! I've been working on behalf of Citrix for the past few months to suggest improvements to their article. Thus far, I've worked with editors to update the History and Products sections and the infobox. I posted a note recently on the Talk page seeking assistance with adding a new Operations section to the article, but haven't had a response. I was thinking members of this WikiProject might be interested in taking a look. I do not directly edit the article due to my COI, so I'd appreciate it if another editor could review my suggested draft and move it to the live article if they agree with the changes. I'll be watching the Talk page and can respond to any comments or questions editors may have there. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 21:34, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you guys do anything to improve this article? --Dweller (talk) 14:50, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, My name is David Hamilton and our public relations agency represents Active Power , a global leader in flywheel energy and power technology for mission critical applications. Given our relationship with Active Power, it would be a conflict of interest for us to create a Wikipedia article on their behalf, but with over 4,000 uninterruptible power supply (UPS) deployments worldwide, we feel that Active Power is relevant and notable enough to deserve an entry.

I am requesting that an independent editor create the article. Below is the information I provided on the Requested Articles page here on Wikipedia that includes links to several independent third-party sources.

Active Power, designs, manufactures, sells, and services flywheel-based uninterruptible power supply (UPS) products that use kinetic energy to provide short-term power as an alternative to conventional battery-based UPS products. The company also designs and manufactures modular infrastructure solutions that integrate critical power components into a pre-packaged, purpose built enclosure that can include Active Power’s UPS products as a component. Customers include Verizon Terremark, Caterpillar, HP, Heineken, and Capgemini. Company website Mentions from third parties: DataCentre Solutions , Datacenter Dynamics , Austin Business Journal , Mission Critical Magazine , Electrical Construction and Maintenance , Data Center Knowledge , Austin Business Journal , Austin Business Journal . Thank you for any assistance you can provide! BBGdavidhamilton (talk) 20:39, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

With the coverage links you've provided, the company does appear to meet notability requirements for companies. If you don't find an independent editor to write the article for you, you might consider writing a bare-bones article yourself using the Articles for creation process. ~Kvng (talk) 14:28, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be appropriate to create a navigation template for floating point formats, containing such articles as single-precision floating-point format? It seems to be more reasonable than having a herd of "see also" links in each of the articles. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 15:56, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have created Category:Floating point types and improved {{Data types}} to improve navigation. ~Kvng (talk) 15:08, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A new copy-paste detection bot is now in general use on English Wikipedia. Come check it out at the EranBot reporting page. This bot utilizes the Turnitin software (ithenticate), unlike User:CorenSearchBot that relies on a web search API from Yahoo. It checks individual edits rather than just new articles. Please take 15 seconds to visit the EranBot reporting page and check a few of the flagged concerns. Comments welcome regarding potential improvements. These likely copyright violations can be searched by WikiProject categories. Use "control-f" to jump to your area of interest (if such a copyvio is present). --Lucas559 (talk) 15:28, 1 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
