| Let me know if there is anything else you want me to do with the Fabulous.com article, ok? Should I add a "people" section? I think you took that section out of the MarkMonitior article.

|

|
| Also worked on the eNom article. made it more neutral (I see what you mean!) and deleted some of the more superfluous sentences. Changed the placement of the logo too, but left everything else. Wasn't sure if I should take anything else out.

| What would you like included in company articles? I looked at some big companies over at Wikipedia (ebay, yahoo, aol), and I see what you mean by "references", but are you going to want to keep the member photo galleries? It seems like they (Wikipedia) only include linked names and titles. Let me know what you think about that. Personally, I think it would look a little more professional just writing them out and it is hard finding pictures for everyone sometimes.
| |
|
| |
| Since I pulled most of my information from the company websites themselves, I might have to go back through mine again and check the NPOV. Are there any other ones you want me to look through specifically? Does the eNom article sound ok, or do I need to push it a little farther?
| |
|
| |
| I did try and play around with the info box when I was working on the [[MarkMonitor]] article, but I don't know if it works quite right here. I'll try again though. It's nice that I can look at Wikipedia's source, and pull code from that.

| When I was talking about [[MarkMonitor]] and the info box, I meant that I tried on that article and the code from wikipedia doesn't always quite work here, they have templates set up. You'll have to look at it through the "edit" feature, but this is the code for an infobox (taken from Yahoo! article):

| There is a bunch of extra stuff that we don't need in it, but you get the idea. I started adding references too, but same deal there. I can't use the nice clean code from Wikipedia because we don't have a "references" template. Started manually putting some in as best I could. You can see some on [[MarkMonitor]]. Am I missing something? Sorry to be a bother. [[User: Mcornelius|Mcornelius]]

| == Dotster ==
| |
| I think happy hour is important because, sometimes people know that there is some company that offers free domains, but they do not know what is the offer called or which company does it, moreover sometimes people would search on google about happy hour, without knowing anything about dotster if they want to get free domains ( I hope you are getting me).
| |
| That part you are talking about are copied words of clint, The CEO (it is mentioned there), they are not very important we can erase that part.
| |
| The only thing that I think should be added to the article is the packages offered by dotster, I was not sure if it is important to add this sort of information or not.

| |
|
| |
| We could have email, phone and/or address as possible fields, that would be blank for most people. By the way, none of the links in our examples work because I couldn't find either of these folks on Twitter or Facebook (didn't try for LinkedIn). [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]]
