Primary source

edit

This article makes a lot of "claims" that cite only the company blog or a press release. While this kind of source is not forbidden, the use here is dubious and seems like an advertisement. The extractable value of a press release or blog is often also verifiable by a third party. ForrestLyle (talk) 21:22, 20 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

All three tags that were added in 2014 are no longer valid. The whole article seems dated, but it does not look a press release. The article is neutral and the references are secondary and independent, so I will remove the tags if there's no objection. Tdk408 (talk) 10:40, 21 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

As per WP:DETAG, after publishing a notice on this talk page, I have removed three tags which no longer apply. I removed the third-party, primary sources, and advert tags, which are a year old and are no longer applicable. Tdk408 (talk) 20:07, 27 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Seems to be an advertisement

edit

This article is in dire need of being rewritten so it focuses in telling what does Fireeye products do, instead of just stating how cool their technology is.

I landed here trying to know more about these devices but I got nothing.

Article looks like an advertisement

This article reads like an advertisement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.209.13.209 (talk) 04:25, 11 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Notoriety

edit

This article has a citation to an article in ComputerWorld. I consider this to be a reliabe source under WP:RS and I'm being bold and removing the {{Importance}} tag. OlYellerTalktome 12:54, 19 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

this is a sales brochure, not an encyclopedia entry

edit

try to find out what they do. all you'll get is lists of crappy "cool product" awards they won or bought. ffs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.181.168.139 (talk) 09:41, 13 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Agreed that this is a sales brochure

edit

I came here to try and figure out what exactly they do as their site was filled with "APT" etc. Turns out this is even less helpful. Looks like it was written by FireEye's marketing team Orion159753 (talk) 19:38, 15 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

Removing Third-party and Primary Sources tags

edit

The Third-party and Primary Sources tags are no longer appropriate. Currently, 9 out of 11 references are neutral, independent sources. If there is no objection, I'll detag per WP:DETAG. Tdk408 (talk) 10:19, 21 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Detagging done. The article no longer reads like advertising copy, and the sources are independent and neutral. Tdk408 (talk) 20:09, 27 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Expand acronym "MPS"

edit

Currently the article repeatedly uses the acronym "MPS" without defining it. Someone who knows, please fix, thanks. 129.219.155.89 (talk) 17:45, 30 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Can I improve this article?

edit

I'm a FireEye employee (engineer), but I'd like to spend a little time fleshing out this article so it has better/more useful information, 3rd party citations, maintains NPOV, and doesn't seem so "salesy". Would this be against Wikipedia etiquette? Jargoon (talk) 01:04, 25 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ignore my earlier post, I googled instead of guessing :). This looks like a Wikipedia:conflict of interest. COI editing is strongly discouraged and the advice seems to be to suggest changes here on the talk page and always disclose your COI. 15.195.185.84 (talk) 13:32, 1 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed FireEye page draft

edit

My name is Melanie and I work in the marketing department at FireEye. The current page is severely outdated and does not accurately represent FireEye’s recent history or the company’s transition from being a sandbox provider. I would like to share a draft of a dramatically improved version that I hope also addresses the promotionalism tag. I was hoping an interested editor might take the time to take a look and let me know if they have any feedback. MelanieLombardi (talk) 21:31, 16 November 2018 (UTC)Reply


As regular Wikipedians that have taken an interest in the FireEye Company page, I wanted to be sure and ping you directly to see if you might take a look at this revised page content. Thank you. MelanieLombardi (talk) 18:09, 11 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
