Talk:Powerset (company)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Capitalization
As I'm affiliated with the company, I won't modify the page, but it should be noted that the capitalization of Powerset (used by the company, on their website and in news publications) is "Powerset", not "PowerSet". --208.84.6.184 (talk) 21:32, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. We'll edit appropriately. And I think we can let this slide by WP:COI on something like this. :-) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 21:41, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

- If that's their capitalization, then move it to Powerset (corporation) or some such, and adjust the hat note at power set. The primary meaning of "powerset" is the mathematical one. --Trovatore (talk) 21:48, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

- I'd also like to point out that on their web site they identify themselves as "Powerset Inc.". I'm happy to stick with "Powerset (company)" since that appears to be the standard disambiguation for a company, but in case someone wants to change it I thought I'd throw that out there. -- Atamachat —Preceding comment was added at 22:13, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speculation in Second Paragraph
I am the product manager here at Powerset, so I don't want to make the edits myself. . . but I thought that this quote on ads was highly speculative: "As a side result, the results would also include advertising (similar to Google's AdSense) that is more relevant and attractive to the user, and therefore more valuable to the advertiser." Right now, we aren't serving any ads whatsoever, let alone our own ads. Also, I made an edit to correct the information about Barney as CEO. Philosophygeek (talk) 22:40, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
- So noted, and the sentence has been rewritten. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 07:39, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Powerset wrote this article
And then pretended they didn't by having people come to the discussion page and say they wouldn't edit it.
The marketing speak is unbelievable. How does this stuff keep getting passed off as real content on Wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.188.86.180 (talk) 05:26, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Feel free to edit it yourself. It's Wikipedia, after all. (And the article does need work.) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 05:29, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
