Proposed changes for matching modern facts

Latest comment: 2 years ago4 comments2 people in discussion

Part of an edit requested by an editor with a conflict of interest has been implemented. A reviewer felt that this edit would not improve the article.

Please change the short description to the following:

Shapeways is a global 3D printing company focused on automation, innovation, and digitization. In October 2021, Shapeways launched OTTO, software that provides outsourced additive manufacturing services. As of 2021, Shapeways has printed and sold more than 20 million objects.^[1]

Partly done: Updated the stat in the last sentence. Need a source for OTTO, and it probably goes in #Recent history and not up here.

(I assume you mean the lead; the short description is something else for which this text is far too long.) ℰmi1y_⧼T·C⧽ 19:32, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please change the info box image to the following image:

	\| image = 3d printed miniature warrior for tabletop gaming on a white background.jpg

Done ℰmi1y_⧼T·C⧽ 19:32, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please remove the second image box as shown below.

A 3D selfie in 1:20 scale printed by Shapeways, created by Madurodam miniature park from 2D pictures taken at its Fantasitron photo booth.

Not done: Unclear why you want this removed. ℰmi1y_⧼T·C⧽ 19:32, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
