Notability[edit]

Cloud computing and infrastructure as a service are recent growing phenomenons in need of documentation. AppNexus is especially notable as it has Fortune 500 clients, something unusual in the cloud computing industry, which has generally catered to small companies and startups.

Give us sources then! I can't take your word for it at face value. I need a few articles as evidence. If you can come up with it, great. If you can't, then you have not proven this page's notability. Generally, if this company is notable, some other people (not you) will be creating this page. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 23:12, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure about the notability - a quick google search returned a page of mostly WP:SPS but we've gone 18 months since this interaction without the issue being fixed so I'm just going to add a {{notability}} template and hopefully someone passing by will fix it. -- samj _in ^out 01:01, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Continuation of "usage of the past tense" changes[edit]

The purchase by AT&T seems to be over and "done", now. (It's "past tense".)[edit]

Note that the purchase by AT&T seems to be now a "fait accompli", that is, something that has already happened, and is no longer "in progress". (See, e.g., this article https://adexchanger.com/platforms/appnexus-is-no-longer-independent-how-will-its-clients-react/ << "AppNexus Is No Longer Independent: How Will Its Clients React?" >> dated Tuesday, June 26th, 2018 – 9:37 am).

The last sentence of the edit comment for this edit, says:

Perhaps the words "Before the purchase by AT&T," should ["also"] be added at the beginning of this sentence!)

IMHO that would be a good idea; but maybe we should first see whether anyone else has any opinions to share. (A suggestion here "might" get more attention than the last sentence of an edit comment).

Also, in view of the "past tense" nature of the purchase by AT&T, IMHO the sentence that now says:

On June 18, 2018, news outlets reported that AT&T is in talks to acquire the company.

should be updated to say was ("was in talks") instead of is ("is in talks").

Any comments?[edit]
