Peacock terms, excessively flattering edits[edit]

This article is in appallingly bad shape. I've taken a crack at it, but it needs a lot of attention from someone who can stomach reading through all of the vapid business section newsblogs that keep being slapped on as sources. Grayfell (talk) 04:53, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Number inflation[edit]

Many of the numbers on this page were unsupported by their sources. Saying that 97% of Fortune 500 companies use Box to blahblahblah is fine, but the source from 2011 say that it was 72%. This is extremely poor practice, and pretty sleazy, because it misrepresents the sources. Do 97% use Box? Great, if you know that, share your source, otherwise it's just promotional garbage. There is also the issue that there is no source supporting his age. Since so much has been made of him being one of the 30 under 30, and the youngest blahblahblah, I would think that somewhere someone would actually mention his birthday, or at least year.

Completely unsourced birth year[edit]

Info on Levie's year of birth keeps getting fudged around. The most common year seems to be 1984, but there is no sources one way or the other. Since this seems to be a point of contention, for some reason, WP:RS and WP:BLP indicate that we should leave it out until such sources are provided. With that in mind I've removed the references to year of birth. Grayfell (talk) 22:52, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
