Hi @Spintendo
Thank you for the detailed guidance — I've prepared five specific edit proposals below, each following the requested format (text to remove, text to add, reference, and reason). These address the outdated content and the "more citations needed" tag using independent sources. Please feel free to adjust wording, trim, or decline any part you feel doesn't meet the article's standards.

EDIT: I removed the repeating edit proposals from here, as I did not see that you told me to open a new edit request. I did that now and moved them there.

Edit request: five sourcing and factual updates (per 3 July 2026 discussion)

edit

Following up on the format requested by Spintendo in the thread above, here are five specific, sourced changes for review. Disclosure: I have a connection to MindGems Inc., the developer of this software.

Change 1 — Fix outdated OS compatibility claim

  1. Remove from the lead paragraph:
    "It is compatible with all Microsoft Windows versions including the latest Windows 8, Windows 7 and all Windows Server operating systems and their corresponding 32 and 64 bit versions."
  2. Add in its place:
    "It is compatible with Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, and 7, as well as Windows Server 2008 and newer, in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions."
  3. Reference:
    "Duplicate File Finder - Find and Remove Duplicate Files Free". MindGems. Retrieved 3 July 2026. Operating system: Windows 11 / Windows 10 / Windows 8.1 / Windows 8 / Windows 7 / Windows Server 2008 and newer
  4. Reason:
    The existing claim is over a decade out of date and unsourced. This is a factual specification about the subject's own product, appropriate under WP:ABOUTSELF.

Change 2 — Add How-To Geek citation

  1. Add to the Reception section, after the CNET sentence:
    "How-To Geek reviewed the software in 2009, describing it as an effective tool for locating duplicate files across a computer, including removable and network drives."
  2. Reference:
    Brian Burgess (16 June 2009). "Fast Duplicate File Finder Identifies Extra Copies". How-To Geek. Retrieved 3 July 2026.
  3. Reason:
    Addresses the "more citations needed" tag with a fourth independent, editorially-written source with a named author.

Change 3 — Correct mischaracterized Overclockers.com citation

  1. Remove from the Reception section:
    "Overclocker.com commented on the quality of the results,"
  2. Add in its place:
    "Overclockers.com praised the software's speed and ease of use, noting it located duplicate files in under ten seconds and that the reviewer was 'amazed at how many dupes showed up.'"
  3. Reference: existing citation #2 (Overclockers.com, June 18, 2009) — no new source needed.
  4. Reason:
    The current text mischaracterizes the source, which discusses speed and ease of use, not "quality of results."

Change 4 — Fix dead PCWorld citation link

  1. Fix the URL of existing citation #1 (visible claim text unchanged):
    Old: http://www.pcworld.com/article/231456/fast_duplicate_file_finder.html
    New: https://www.pcworld.com/article/485841/fast_duplicate_file_finder.html
  2. Reference:
    Preston Gralla (2 March 2011). "Fast Duplicate File Finder". PCWorld. Retrieved 3 July 2026.
  3. Reason:
    The existing URL uses an outdated article ID format and is very likely dead. This is the live URL for the same review.

Change 5 — Add OnlineComputerTips citation

  1. Add to the Reception section:
    "In 2026, OnlineComputerTips conducted a performance benchmark, scanning 1.3 million files and reporting no false positives in duplicate detection."
  2. Reference:
    Dan Edmunds (7 July 2024). "Find Duplicate Files and then Copy, Move or Delete Them". OnlineComputerTips. Updated 3 July 2026. Retrieved 3 July 2026.
  3. Reason:
    Adds an additional independent citation, addressing the "more citations needed" tag.

Education and Notable people updates

edit

Hello. I work for the City of Fishers, Indiana and therefore have a conflict of interest regarding this article. Rather than editing the article directly, I am requesting review of the following proposed updates by an independent editor.


Privacy request from the subject

edit

Hello, I am Florat Qerimi, the subject of this article. I am not requesting the deletion of the article. My public career as an artist, rapper, producer and co-founder of MRM may remain. However, I object to the publication of unnecessary private information and request the following changes under Wikipedia’s Biographies of Living Persons privacy policy: Remove my exact date of birth from the infobox and introduction. If a birth year is considered necessary, please state only “born 1997”. Remove my exact place of birth, “Muri, Aargau, Switzerland”. Remove the “Early life” paragraph containing details about my grandfather, my family’s migration history, the neighbourhood where I grew up, football and martial arts. Remove details about the location of the basement recording studio and nearby apartment buildings. Keep only information directly relevant to my public music career, releases, performances and MRM. Suggested introduction: “Florat Qerimi, known professionally as Florat, is a Swiss-Albanian rapper and producer. He is the co-founder of the hip-hop group and record label MRM.” I am specifically objecting to the publication of my full date of birth and detailed private and family information. Wikipedia’s BLP privacy policy states that when a subject complains about the inclusion of their date of birth, editors should err on the side of caution and list only the year. Thank you. ~2026-39538-71 (talk) 06:39, 13 July 2026 (UTC)


Proposed update — incorporating developments 2021–2026

edit


I would like to request that the current article be updated with the revised version available at User:Gatterdam/Focal molography draft. The draft has been reviewed and approved by Christof Fattinger (ETH Zurich / F. Hoffmann-La Roche, principal author of the foundational focal molography publications), who confirmed scientific accuracy on 2026-06-09.

Summary of proposed changes:

  • Lead: added a sentence noting commercial availability since 2024.
  • History → Commercialization (new subsection): founding of lino Biotech AG as an ETH Zurich spin-off in March 2020, Miltenyi Biotec acquisition of lino Biotech in February 2023, and the launch of the MACS Matchmaker (first commercial focal-molography instrument) in October 2024. Sourced from PR Newswire and BioSpace coverage.
  • Realization: added a paragraph on total internal reflection focal molography (TIR-M), a variant using objective-side illumination on inverted-microscope platforms (Blickenstorfer et al. 2021, Sensors and Actuators B).
  • Applications: expanded with four new subsections backed by peer-reviewed publications from 2025–2026:
    • Measurements in complex biological matrices — comparative study against SPR and BLI in 50% bovine serum (Dirscherl et al. 2025, Biosensors).
    • Concentration quantification — protein quantification with 97.8–100.3% recovery in cell culture media / 50% FBS (same study).
    • Drug discovery / Targeted protein degradation — β-catenin/TCF4 interaction in cell lysate (Cedro et al. 2025, PLOS ONE); 20-plex multiplexed measurement of DNA–VHL ligand conjugates (Raschke et al. 2026, ChemRxiv preprint).
    • Bioprocess monitoring — direct titer measurement in bioreactor harvest and cell culture media.
  • Comparison with other label-free methods (new section): neutral comparison of FM with SPR, BLI, and ITC, including relative installed base and track record.
  • Limitations: updated to reflect commercial status as of 2024.
  • References: six new sources added (two press releases for the commercialization timeline; four peer-reviewed papers / one preprint for the application examples).

Disclosure: I am an employee of Miltenyi Biotec, the parent company of lino Biotech AG, which commercializes focal molography. See my user page for the full COI/paid-contribution disclosure. In accordance with the commitment on that user page, I am refraining from editing the article directly and request independent community review per WP:COI and WP:PAID before any changes go live.

A section-aligned side-by-side comparison of the current live article versus the draft is available on request, or can be reproduced from the draft's edit history.

Thank you for your time. — Gatterdam (talk) 11:43, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Edit request — 14 atomic changes incorporating developments 2021–2026

edit

Hello Spintendo, thank you for the clarification. Following the Edit COI submitter instructions, I have decomposed my previous narrative request into 14 atomic edit requests below. Each contains the verbatim remove text (where applicable), verbatim add text, location, reference template, and rationale.

Disclosure: I am an employee of Miltenyi Biotec, parent company of lino Biotech AG, which commercializes focal molography. See my user page for the full COI / paid-contribution disclosure. I am refraining from editing the article directly per WP:COI and WP:PAID.

Where the same new reference is cited by more than one block, it is defined inline at first use (Blocks 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10) and reused thereafter via <ref name="…" />. Six new references are introduced overall; all existing references are preserved unchanged.


Block 1 — Lead: copy-edit "holography" → "focal molography"

  1. Please remove the fourth sentence of the only paragraph of the Lead section:
    "Contrary to refractometric methods for label-free biomolecular interaction analysis, such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS), holography allows quantification of molecular interactions in living cells in real time."
  2. Please add the following as the fourth sentence of the only paragraph of the Lead section:
    "Contrary to refractometric methods for label-free biomolecular interaction analysis, such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and reflectometric interference spectroscopy (RIfS), focal molography allows quantification of molecular interactions in living cells in real time."
  3. Reference: no new reference required (copy-edit only).
  4. Reason: The current wording reads "holography allows quantification..."; holography in general does not by itself enable this — the property is specific to focal molography. The surrounding paragraph discusses focal molography throughout. Restoring the full term aligns the sentence with the article subject.

Block 2 — Lead: add commercial-availability sentence

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following as a new fifth (final) sentence of the only paragraph of the Lead section, immediately after the sentence ending "...in real time.":
    "Focal molography was developed through a collaboration between ETH Zurich and Roche from 2014 to 2020 and has been commercially available since 2024.<ref name="PRNewswire2023">"Miltenyi Biotec acquires biosensor company lino Biotech" (Press release). PR Newswire. 2023-02-22. Retrieved 2026-06-29.</ref>"
  3. Reference: defined inline above (PRNewswire2023, press release, PR Newswire, 2023-02-22).
  4. Reason: The Lead currently ends at the 2020 academic state. Per MOS:LEAD the Lead should summarise the article body. The commercialization timeline (spin-off 2020, acquisition 2023, first commercial instrument 2024) is a material development of the past six years; the press release establishes commercial availability since 2024.

Block 3 — History: add Commercialization subsection

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new subsection at the end of the History section, immediately after the existing sentence ending "...from 2014 to 2020.":
    === Commercialization ===
    In March 2020, lino Biotech AG was founded as an [[ETH Zurich]] [[university spin-off|spin-off]] in Zurich to commercialize focal molography. The company received funding from Roche Venture Fund, High-Tech Gründerfonds, and private investors.<ref name="PRNewswire2023" />
    
    In February 2023, [[Miltenyi Biotec]], a German biotechnology company, acquired lino Biotech.<ref name="PRNewswire2023" /><ref name="BioSpace2023">{{Cite news|no-tracking=true|title=Miltenyi Biotec acquires biosensor company lino Biotech|url=https://www.biospace.com/miltenyi-biotec-acquires-biosensor-company-lino-biotech|work=BioSpace|date=2023-02-22|access-date=2026-06-29}}</ref> The technology continues to be developed at the Zurich site. In October 2024, lino Biotech launched the MACS Matchmaker, the first commercial focal molography instrument.
    
  3. Reference: reuses `PRNewswire2023` (defined in Block 2); newly defined inline `BioSpace2023` (news article, BioSpace, 2023-02-22).
  4. Reason: The History section currently terminates in 2020 with the ETH–Roche collaboration. The two acquisitions/foundations and the 2024 instrument launch are material to a complete history of the method, are independently reported by two distinct outlets (a wire service and a trade publication), and follow standard Wikipedia practice for documenting commercialization timelines of academic-origin biotechnologies.

Block 4 — Realization: heading grammar fix

  1. Please remove the current Realization heading:
    == Realization: A special photolithographic method enables the synthesis molograms ==
  2. Please add in its place:
    == Realization: A special photolithographic method enables the synthesis of molograms ==
  3. Reference: no new reference required (copy-edit only).
  4. Reason: Insertion of the missing preposition "of" between "synthesis" and "molograms". The current heading is ungrammatical; pure copy-edit, no content change.

Block 5 — Realization: add paragraph on TIR-M variant

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following as a new second paragraph of the Realization section, immediately after the existing paragraph ending "...desired analytical application.":
    "A variant of focal molography, total internal reflection focal molography (TIR-M), uses an objective-side illumination geometry to enable measurements on commercial inverted microscope platforms.<ref name="Blickenstorfer2021TIR">Blickenstorfer, Yves; Borghi, Linda; Reichmuth, Andreas M.; Fattinger, Christof; Vörös, János; Frutiger, Andreas (2021). "Total internal reflection focal molography (TIR-M)". Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 349: 130746. doi:10.1016/j.snb.2021.130746.{{cite journal}}: CS1 maint: article number as page number (link)</ref>"
  3. Reference: defined inline above (Blickenstorfer 2021, Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical).
  4. Reason: TIR-M is a published instrumental variant of focal molography (peer-reviewed paper, 2021) extending the method to inverted-microscope platforms. It is currently entirely absent from the article.

Block 6 — Applications: heading simplification

  1. Please remove the current Applications heading:
    == Applications of the molography method ==
  2. Please add in its place:
    == Applications ==
  3. Reference: no new reference required (heading style only).
  4. Reason: Shorter heading consistent with MOS:HEAD (avoid redundant words; the article's subject is already established).

Block 7 — Applications: new subsection "Measurements in complex biological matrices"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new subsection immediately after the existing numbered list (item 5 ending "...by means of binding assays.<ref name=":0" />"):
    === Measurements in complex biological matrices ===
    A distinguishing feature of focal molography is its ability to perform kinetic measurements directly in complex biological samples without prior purification. A 2025 comparative study evaluated focal molography against [[surface plasmon resonance|SPR]] and [[bio-layer interferometry|BLI]] for antibody–antigen interactions using single-domain antibodies ([[Single-domain antibody|VHHs]]). Measurements in 50% bovine serum yielded [[dissociation constant|''K''<sub>D</sub>]] values within 1.8-fold of those obtained in standard buffers.<ref name="Dirscherl2025">{{Cite journal|no-tracking=true|last1=Dirscherl|first1=Lorin|last2=Merz|first2=Laura S.|last3=Kobras|first3=Ronya|last4=Spies|first4=Peter|last5=Frutiger|first5=Andreas|last6=Gatterdam|first6=Volker|last7=Meinel|first7=Dominik M.|date=2025|title=Focal Molography Allows for Affinity and Concentration Measurements of Proteins in Complex Matrices with High Accuracy|journal=Biosensors|volume=15|issue=2|page=66|doi=10.3390/bios15020066|doi-access=free}}</ref> The method maintained stable baseline signals in serum without requiring external referencing, a practical advantage over SPR and BLI, which exhibited baseline drift under similar conditions. For proteins with high intrinsic non-specific binding tendencies, such as [[Granzyme B]], focal molography was able to determine kinetic parameters where SPR and BLI measurements were not feasible due to non-specific binding to sensor surfaces.<ref name="Dirscherl2025" />
    
  3. Reference: defined inline above (Dirscherl 2025, Biosensors, Open Access).
  4. Reason: The existing list-item 2 ("Quantification of biomarkers in biological samples") is unaccompanied by quantitative cross-platform evidence. The cited 2025 peer-reviewed study provides the SPR/BLI cross-platform comparison in 50% bovine serum (within 1.8-fold of buffer) that empirically substantiates the existing list claim.

Block 8 — Applications: new subsection "Concentration quantification"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new subsection immediately after Block 7:
    === Concentration quantification ===
    Beyond kinetic analysis, focal molography can be used for quantitative concentration measurements in complex matrices. Studies have demonstrated protein quantification in cell culture media and 50% fetal bovine serum with recovery rates of 97.8–100.3% and inter-assay coefficients of variation below 1.3%.<ref name="Dirscherl2025" />
    
  3. Reference: reuses `Dirscherl2025` (defined in Block 7).
  4. Reason: Concentration measurement is a distinct application from kinetic measurement and is reported quantitatively in the same Dirscherl 2025 study. The recovery (97.8–100.3 %) and CV (< 1.3 %) come directly from the paper.

Block 9 — Applications: new subsection "Drug discovery"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new subsection immediately after Block 8:
    === Drug discovery ===
    Focal molography has been used to characterize protein–protein interactions relevant to drug discovery. A 2025 study measured the interaction between [[β-catenin]] and TCF4, a target in [[Wnt signaling pathway|Wnt signaling]]-related cancers, in both buffer and cell lysate.<ref name="Cedro2025">{{Cite journal|no-tracking=true|last1=Cedro|first1=Philipp|last2=Popov|first2=Roman|last3=Karrer|first3=Maxime|last4=Hau|first4=Jean-Christophe|last5=Kusznir|first5=Eric-André|last6=Thoma|first6=Ralf|last7=Frutiger|first7=Andreas|last8=Lauer|first8=Matthias|last9=Huber|first9=Sylwia|date=2025|title=Exploring β-catenin and TCF4 interaction in complex environments by means of novel biosensing platform focal molography|journal=PLOS ONE|volume=20|issue=9|page=e0333554|doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0333554|doi-access=free}}</ref> ''K''<sub>D</sub> values in cell lysate (100–140 nM) were comparable to those obtained in buffer (68–160 nM), while SPR measurements in cell lysate were not feasible due to non-specific background binding.
    
  3. Reference: newly defined inline `Cedro2025` (PLOS ONE, Open Access).
  4. Reason: The Cedro 2025 PLOS ONE paper provides a specific, named pharmaceutical example (β-catenin / TCF4, a published cancer drug target) with direct cell-lysate vs. SPR comparison. The cell-lysate comparison (focal molography feasible, SPR infeasible due to non-specific background) is explicit in the paper.

Block 10 — Applications: new sub-subsection "Targeted protein degradation"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new sub-subsection (heading level ====) immediately after Block 9, as a child of "Drug discovery":
    ==== Targeted protein degradation ====
    The multiplexed measurement capability is suited for [[PROTAC|targeted protein degradation]] research. A 2026 study used 20-plex multiplexed measurements to investigate linker effects in DNA–[[von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor|VHL]] ligand conjugates ("DNA-PROTACs").<ref name="Raschke2026">{{Cite journal|no-tracking=true|last1=Raschke|first1=Pascal|last2=Notova|first2=Simona|last3=Gatterdam|first3=Volker|last4=Frutiger|first4=Andreas|last5=Brunschweiger|first5=Andreas|date=2026|title=Investigations into linker effects of DNA–VHL ligand conjugates by multiplexed affinity measurements using focal molography|journal=RSC Chemical Biology|volume=7|issue=5|pages=870–879|doi=10.1039/D6CB00011H|doi-access=free}}</ref> The approach enabled simultaneous affinity determination of 20 compounds per experiment, achieving 20-fold higher throughput than sequential measurements. DNA-directed immobilization via Watson–Crick base pairing allowed rapid array formation within 5–10 minutes.
    
  3. Reference: defined inline above (Raschke 2026, RSC Chemical Biology, Open Access, first published 20 March 2026).
  4. Reason: Targeted protein degradation (PROTACs) is a major emerging field in drug discovery; this Open Access peer-reviewed paper provides a verifiable primary source for the 20-fold throughput claim and the DNA-directed immobilization timing.

Block 11 — Applications: new subsection "Bioprocess monitoring"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new subsection immediately after Block 10:
    === Bioprocess monitoring ===
    Focal molography has been used for protein quantification directly in cell culture media without sample preparation, a capability relevant to bioprocess quality control.<ref name="Dirscherl2025" />
    
  3. Reference: reuses `Dirscherl2025` (defined in Block 7).
  4. Reason: The Dirscherl 2025 paper explicitly demonstrates protein quantification in cell culture media. Bioprocess quality control is an industrially distinct use case from drug discovery and warrants a brief separate subsection.

Block 12 — New top-level section "Comparison with other label-free methods"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new section immediately after the Applications section (and before the References section):
    == Comparison with other label-free methods ==
    Focal molography belongs to a family of label-free techniques for biomolecular interaction analysis. Other established methods include [[surface plasmon resonance]] (SPR), [[bio-layer interferometry]] (BLI), and [[isothermal titration calorimetry]] (ITC).
    
    Unlike SPR and BLI, which measure bulk refractive index changes near the sensor surface, focal molography uses spatial filtering to selectively detect molecules bound to the patterned binding sites. This design reduces sensitivity to non-specific binding and temperature fluctuations.<ref name=":2" /> A 2025 comparative study found that ''K''<sub>D</sub> values determined by all three methods were within a 2.4-fold range in standard buffers.<ref name="Dirscherl2025" /> In complex matrices such as 50% serum, focal molography maintained stable baselines, whereas SPR and BLI exhibited baseline drift requiring correction. Similarly, kinetic measurements of the β-catenin / TCF4 interaction in cell lysate were feasible with focal molography but not with SPR.<ref name="Cedro2025" />
    
    SPR and BLI have larger installed bases and longer commercial histories, with instruments available since approximately 1990 and 2005, respectively. Focal molography was commercialized in 2024.
    
  3. Reference: all references already defined elsewhere (`":2"` existing; `Dirscherl2025` from Block 7; `Cedro2025` from Block 9).
  4. Reason: Per WP:NPOV, an article describing a recently commercialized technology benefits from explicit comparison with established alternatives. Both strengths (stable baseline in complex matrices, smaller temperature dependence) and relative weaknesses (newer technology, smaller installed base, single commercial provider) are stated. The numerical comparisons come from the cited 2025 peer-reviewed paper.

Block 13 — New top-level section "Limitations"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new section immediately after Block 12:
    == Limitations ==
    As with all biosensor technologies, focal molography has specific characteristics and constraints:
    
    * '''Established use''': As a technology commercialized in 2024, focal molography has a shorter track record than SPR (available since approximately 1990) or BLI (since approximately 2005).
    * '''Chip fabrication''': The molograms require specialized photolithographic manufacturing processes.<ref name=":2" />
    * '''Commercial availability''': As of 2024, commercial instruments are available from one provider, whereas SPR and BLI instruments are offered by multiple manufacturers.
    
  3. Reference: existing `":2"` (Gatterdam 2017); no new reference required.
  4. Reason: Per WP:NPOV, known limitations should be stated explicitly. All three items are factual and verifiable: the 2024 commercialization date is documented via the press release in Block 2; the photolithographic fabrication requirement is in the existing Gatterdam 2017 reference; the single-provider status as of 2024 is a verifiable market fact.

Block 14 — New top-level section "See also"

  1. Please remove: nothing (addition only).
  2. Please add the following new section immediately after Block 13 (and before the References section):
    == See also ==
    * [[Biomolecular interaction analysis]]
    * [[Surface plasmon resonance]]
    * [[Bio-layer interferometry]]
    * [[Label-free detection]]
    * [[Biosensor]]
    * [[Protein–protein interaction]]
    * [[Dissociation constant]]
    
  3. Reference: none (internal Wikipedia links only).
  4. Reason: A "See also" section is standard Wikipedia structure (per MOS:SEEALSO) and helps reduce the article's orphan status (currently flagged with {{Orphan}}) by signalling reciprocal-link candidates. All linked articles are directly related (peer techniques, parent concept, foundational terms).

Thank you for the careful review. I will not edit the article directly; please apply or revise these as you see fit. Happy to provide further detail or revised wording on any individual block.

Requested updates: managed services wording, acquisition-chronology consolidation, and lead naming

edit

Hello, I now have a COI with respect to this article (declared on my user page: Fortra, Boldon James, and Vera Security). I contributed to this article in the past, prior to the COI; I am now shifting to making edit requests rather than editing the article directly. Below are three narrow, source-backed requests, kept as specific as I can make them.

1. Managed security services subsection

edit

Under Products and services: Managed security services, please make the following change:

Alert Logic delivers cloud-based managed detection and response (MDR), extended detection and response (XDR), and managed web application firewall (WAF).
+
In January 2026, LevelBlue announced a strategic partnership with Fortra under which LevelBlue would acquire the managed services of Fortra's Alert Logic Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions.

Reason: The current wording presents Alert Logic's managed services as straightforwardly part of Fortra's portfolio. The article should reflect the January 2026 transaction, in which LevelBlue agreed to acquire the managed services of Fortra's Alert Logic MDR, XDR, and WAF offerings.

2. Consolidate acquisition chronology into History

edit

Please remove the standalone Acquisitions section heading and merge its 2019-2022 chronology into the History section, immediately after the existing paragraph that ends:

"In 2018, private equity firm HGGC became the lead investor, and HelpSystems acquired Midrange Performance Group."

Specifically, please insert the following three paragraphs at that point in History, retaining the existing citations currently attached to this material in the Acquisitions section:

In 2019, HelpSystems expanded its cybersecurity capabilities through the acquisition of Core Security and UK-based Clearswift. TA Associates and Charlesbank Capital Partners also became investors. In 2020, the company acquired the data classification firms Titus and Boldon James, and acquired the cloud-based data protection provider Vera.

In 2021, HelpSystems acquired several companies to expand its cybersecurity and data protection services, including FileCatalyst, Digital Defense, Beyond Security, Agari, PhishLabs, and Digital Guardian. During this time, private equity firm Harvest Partners SCF LP also acquired partial ownership in HelpSystems.

In 2022, HelpSystems expanded its portfolio with the acquisitions of Tripwire, Alert Logic, Terranova Security, and Outflank, adding offerings in IT security compliance, cloud-based security, security awareness training, and advanced threat detection. HelpSystems rebranded as Fortra in November 2022.

Please also remove the following sentence as part of this consolidation, as it is not acquisition chronology and reads as tangential here:

"In October of that year, PhishLabs by HelpSystems identified a weakness in Google Ads being used by attackers to target financial institutions."

Reason: This keeps the company's acquisition activity in chronological order within History rather than split into a separate section. The article currently jumps from 2018 to 2023 in History and then returns to 2019-2022 in Acquisitions (where the 2022 rebrand is also discussed). Consolidating should improve readability and reduce structural repetition without changing the underlying sourced chronology. No new references should be needed if the existing citations are carried over.

Note: I have a declared COI with Boldon James and Vera Security, both named in this section. I am only requesting that the existing, already-sourced wording be moved, not expanded or made more favorable; please scrutinize accordingly.

3. Simplify naming timeline in the lead

edit

In the lead, please make the following change:

The company was founded as Help/38 in 1982, rebranded as HelpSystems in 1988, and became Fortra in 2022.
+
The company was known as HelpSystems until rebranding as Fortra in 2022.

Please leave the existing History wording about the Help/38 origin intact:

"Help/38 was founded in 1982 by Dick Jacobson. Help/38's first product, Robot/38, provided IT automation for the IBM System/38. In 1988, when IBM replaced the System/38 with the AS/400, the company became known as HelpSystems (sometimes stylized as Help/Systems)."

Reason: A narrow clarity request only. The detailed Help/38-to-HelpSystems origin remains in History; the lead just identifies the current and immediately prior names. No new references should be needed, as the 2022 rebrand is already cited in the article.

Thank you for considering these limited requests. Mrmctorso (talk) 20:46, 31 May 2026 (UTC)

Edit Request: Correcting Death Date and Location (1968, Croydon)

edit

== Edit Request: Correcting Death Date and Location ==

I am a family member of the screenwriter Frank Miller (1891–1950) and am writing to request a critical correction to his vital statistics. The current article incorrectly states that he died in 1950, which appears to be a case of same-name confusion in early film indexes. According to family records and official UK civil registration indexes, he actually passed away in late 1968 in Croydon. * **Current text in article:** Died c. 1950 in England, UK. * **Requested change:** Died 1968 in Croydon, Surrey, England. * **Verifiable Source:** England & Wales Deaths civil registration index: Frank A. Miller, age 77, General Register Office (GRO) Reference: Q4 (Oct-Nov-Dec) 1968, Croydon District, Volume 5g, Page 36.

Editors - I left one other update off by accident, if anyone could review: May 2026 - Function Health acquired SuppCo, a platform that provides independent evaluations of dietary supplement trustworthiness. https://longevity.technology/news/function-acquires-suppco-to-add-independent-supplement-testing-and-tracking/ SarahSAutumn (talk) 13:50, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
I'll add that SuppCo acquisition, but I'm on the fence about Katy Perry & Justin Trudeau. Any other editors have any feedback? --FeldBum (talk) 21:18, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
Added the acquisition, with a better citation and some edits. --FeldBum (talk) 21:55, 17 June 2026 (UTC)


Minor page corrections from Funding Circle

edit

For full disclosure, I work at Funding Circle and lead the communications team. I noticed there are a small number of factual inaccuracies on the Funding Circle Wikipedia page and wanted to suggest that these are corrected. This includes the following:

Andrew Learoyd is listed as Chairman. Andrew has since been replaced by Ken Stannard. https://www.ajbell.co.uk/news/articles/brief-funding-circle-hires-former-cabot-credit-ceo-be-chair In December 2024, Funding Circle announced his upcoming appointment as Chair Designate. In Jan 2025, he formally joined the board as a Non-Executive Director to begin a transition period. In May 2025, he officially took over the role of Chair immediately following the company's Annual General Meeting (AGM), succeeding Andrew Learoyd, who had served as chair since 2016.

Under the partnerships section - sources 37 and 38 are generating a page not found link. These could be updated to: April 2025 partnership with Bayview: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-and-bayview-extend-funding-partnership-surpassing-1-billion-in-total-funding-with-jp-morgan-and-citi-backed-credit-facilities February 2024 partnership with Barclays: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-announces-newest-lending-partnership-with-barclays-bank-and-tpg-angelo-gordon

There are some more recent partnership announcements which you may also want to include: April 2026: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-renews-funding-agreement-to-support-flexipay-growth February 2026: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-strengthens-partnership-with-waterfall-asset-management-through-a-new-700-million-deal September 2025: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-extends-strategic-partnership-with-tpg-angelo-gordon-and-barclays-through-300-million-forward-flow-deal July 2025: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/funding-circle-closes-a-200-million-forward-flow-agreement-with-deutsche-bank-to-bolster-support-for-uk-small-businesses

In the intro section you may also want to update the latest lending figures: Page currently says: As of 2024, Funding Circle has facilitated over £15 billion in loans. Latest update: As of 2025, Funding Circle has extended more than £17 billion in credit to over 125,000 small businesses. Link here: https://corporate.fundingcircle.com/media/newsroom/full-year-2025-results

I'd be grateful if it is possible to make these factual corrections to the page? I look forward to hearing from you and please let me know if you need anything else from me or if this is not the appropriate form of engagement.

Many thanks Abi Abi FC (talk) 21:35, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

I request that an uninvolved editor update the officeholder infobox of the article G. Sabari Iyngaran to include the predecessor for the Periyakulam Assembly constituency.

Requested addition:

Thank you. Voiceofperiyakulam (talk) 19:31, 1 July 2026 (UTC)


  • What I think should be changed (include citations):

Please replace the entirety of the current article text with the following comprehensively sourced draft.

Infobox Data

edit

Update the existing infobox with the following:

  • Industry: Consumer Electronics, Video Game Hardware
  • Founded: 2010 (Parent company); 2013 (GameSir

brand)

  • Founder: Yao Ma
  • Headquarters: Guangzhou, Guangdong, China
  • Legal Name: Guangzhou Chicken Run Network

Technology Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 广州小鸡快跑网络科技有限公司; pinyin: Guangzhou Xiaoji Kuaipao Network Technology Co., Ltd.)

  • Products: Game controllers, mobile gaming accessories, software

GameSir

edit

GameSir (Chinese: 盖世小鸡) is a consumer electronics brand owned by Guangzhou Chicken Run Network Technology Co., Ltd.[9][10] Headquartered in Guangzhou, China, the company designs and manufactures video game peripherals, including controllers, mobile gaming accessories, and arcade fightsticks.[9] The parent company was incorporated in 2010, initially focusing on OEM services and international electronics distribution.[10] The GameSir brand launched in 2013, targeting the mobile gaming market with Bluetooth gamepads before expanding to PC and home console peripherals.[9] The company produces cross-platform hardware compatible with personal computers, major consoles, and mobile devices.[11][12]

History

edit

Guangzhou Chicken Run Network Technology Co., Ltd. was incorporated in 2010.[10] The company operated in the electronics export market as a distributor and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for international clients.[10] In 2013, the company launched the GameSir brand and began marketing direct-to-consumer hardware, starting with the Happy Chick emulator for Android and iOS alongside its first gaming controller, the G1.[9] The product line expanded to include PC and home console peripherals.[11] The company employs between 101 and 200 personnel, with international exports forming a substantial portion of its distribution.[10] GameSir subsequently secured official third-party licensing agreements with Microsoft to manufacture "Designed for Xbox" controllers.[13]

Design and Technology

edit

GameSir's hardware designs incorporate specific engineering features to address input latency and component lifespan:

  • The GameSir Mag-Res™ TMR sticks (including the Gen-2 iteration): Utilize contactless magnetic resonance technology to prevent stick drift, providing a theoretically near-infinite lifespan and lower power draw. They are calibrated for high sensitivity and precision comparable to traditional carbon-film sticks, featuring accurate return-to-center mechanics, moderate actuation tension, and rapid response times.[14]
  • GameSir™ Movable USB-C Port: The GameSir™ Moveable Type-C Port features a pivoting USB-C connector that tilts at an adjustable angle. This mechanism facilitates the easy insertion and removal of mobile devices, preventing potential physical damage to both the controller's connector and the device's charging port.
  • Hall effect sensors: Models such as the G7 SE and Nova series use contactless magnetic Hall effect sensors in analog sticks and triggers to eliminate potentiometer wear and prevent analog stick drift.[15][16]
  • Mechanical switches: Traditional rubber membrane contacts in face buttons and directional pads are replaced with mechanical microswitches to alter actuation distance and tactile feedback.[17]
  • High polling rates: PC-focused models, including the Tarantula 8K and G7 Pro 8K models, support wired polling rates of up to 8000 Hz to minimize input delay.[16]

Product Lines

edit

Hardware is divided into three primary categories:

  • Console and PC gamepads: Includes asymmetric and symmetric designs. Notable models include the officially licensed G7 series for Xbox and multi-platform controllers such as the Nova series and Tarantula series.[13][17][16]
  • Mobile gaming: Telescopic controllers that attach to smartphones to convert them into portable gaming systems. The lineup includes the X-series, Galileo series, and the Pocket Taco.[12][18][19]
  • Software: Hardware mapping and customization are managed through platform-specific applications. PC controllers utilize GameSir Connect,[20][21] while Xbox-licensed controllers use GameSir Nexus.[20][22] Mobile controllers interface with the GameSir App.[20][12] These applications allow users to adjust dead zones, button layouts, and emulation settings.[20]

Partnerships and Esports

edit
  • GameSir has collaborated with game studios to produce special-edition controllers tied to specific titles, including Dragon's Dogma 2,[19] Zenless Zone Zero,[23] Wuchang: Fallen Feathers,[24] NBA 2K Online,[25] Nioh 3,[26] and Aimlabs.[27] 
  • In the esports sector, GameSir sponsors professional players and teams as brand ambassadors. The company produces customized hardware iterations for these partners, including the G7 Pro 8K Championship Edition for Zeng "Xiaohai" Zhuojun,[28][29] the Tegenaria Lite MenaRD colorway and the Tarantula 8K MenaRD edition for MenaRD,[30][31][32][33] and the G7 Pro 8K Royal2 Edition for Royal2.[34][35] The company also sponsors competitive player Blaz and maintains an official partnership with the Complexity Gaming esports organization.[36]

Reception

edit

GameSir peripherals have received generally favorable reviews from technology publications, noting the balance of features and pricing.[13][15] Outlets such as PC Gamer, IGN, and TechRadar have featured GameSir controllers in hardware roundups, highlighting the inclusion of Hall effect sensors in budget-tier products.[11][17] The primary criticism of this product lies in its failure to meet flagship expectations. Although priced and positioned as a premium controller for competitive gamers, it suffers from a high input latency of mid-teens milliseconds, a core pain point that severely detracts from the competitive experience. Concurrently, the product has faced critiques regarding its industrial design, including a bulky grip, unappealing exterior, and unclear button feedback. These factors collectively diminish its competitiveness in the flagship market.[37][38][39]

Vision

edit

To eliminate the performance gap between casual and professional gamers by standardizing esports-grade components across all consumer price tiers. GameSir aims to bridge isolated gaming ecosystems through universal, latency-free input architecture compatible across mobile, PC, and console hardware.

  • Why it should be changed:

I am submitting this complete article rewrite on behalf of GameSir. I receive compensation for this formatting in the form of corporate digital tokens as disclosed on my user page. The current article requires structural correction to neutralize promotional language, eliminate first-party marketing bias, and comply with WP:NPOV through the integration of independent secondary citations.
