== How come no information on AT&Ts ownership? == |
|||
The original AT&T owned NCR for a few disatrous years and I understand the whole Teradata product line was almost killed off. It is my understanding that it wasn't until NCR itself was spun off and needed something to sell that Teradata as a product actually took off. I don't have enough detailed understanding to make changes to the entry as such. But it is quite a story! surely someone with some detailed knowledge could add something.<!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/74.133.235.42|74.133.235.42]] ([[User talk:74.133.235.42#top|talk]]) 19:00, 5 July 2007 (UTC)</small> |

== Request to replace "Company milestones" bullet points with "History" prose == |
|||
{{Edit request|A}} |
|||
Hello, based on [[User:Seraphimblade|Seraphimblade]]'s feedback above, I went ahead and completed some work on the "History" section, which was previously converted into bullet points. Since bullet points don't appear to comply with Wikipedia's manual of style, I put it back into prose, and made some other improvements, which I offer to the community for further review. Seraphimblade or any other editors are welcome to use the proposed text appropriately, or make further edits as needed. Here is an overview of my actions and improvements: |
|||
* I did ''not'' add back any of the content removed by User:Spintendo. Instead, I took the bullet points they left, and converted them into prose. Among the claims they removed were: "A Teradata database became the world's largest at 11 terabytes in 1992." and "By 1997, NCR became independent from AT&T." |
|||
* I then did a little bit of additional trimming myself, removing some extraneous details such as the California Institute of Technology's nickname and Victor Lund's former employer. |
|||
* I also removed mention of NCR's acquisition of Stirling Douglas Group and its demand chain management software, because I cannot find appropriate sourcing to replace the press release used to verify the claim. |
|||
* I then did some minor wording changes to improve flow and reduce repetition, mostly in the form of restructuring sentences so they don't all start with, "In Year X... In Year Y... In Year Z...", etc. |
|||
* Finally, I formatted some of the references, replaced several press releases and company websites with news sources, and added links for a few terms, including "chief technology officer", "customer relationship management", and "financial management". |
|||
I did not want to trim too much, in case other editors and I have different ideas about what needs to be kept or removed. But, hopefully the above improvements help, and make reviewing a little easier. I kept the "Acquisitions and divestitures" subsection, for organizational purposes, but I'm open to incorporating this content back into the "History" section, if editors prefer. Editors are welcome to use the markup below if that's helpful. |

To sum up, I'm looking to replace the existing "Company milestones" section with the proposed "History" section above. Thank you. [[User:Dodds_Writer|Dodds_Writer]] ([[User talk:Dodds_Writer|Talk]] · [[User:Dodds_Writer|Disclosure: Employee of Teradata]]) 21:24, 15 March 2018 (UTC) |

The suggestions you have made regarding the merger information can be improved further. No matter how its written, you cannot create coherent, flowing prose from a collection of static facts and figures covering company acquisitions. This information will never sound like [[Percy Bysshe Shelley|Shelley]] or [[Lord Byron|Byron]], no matter how hard one tries. |
|||
As a counterproposal, I offer you this clade which does the exact same job as your "prose" does, and the exact same job as the timeline does - but in a more efficient way. The clade would carry only the merger information, as that text is what makes up the bulk of what it is, in the timeline, that is resistant to prose. If this is acceptable, the other information currently in the milestones which you have suggested to place into the article as prose (mainly information about technologies and other non-merger related information) I would be willing to implement as a show of good faith. Have a look and let me know if this outline meets with your approval (The outline needs finetuning). <small>'''<span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Spintendo|<span style="background:#fdd;color:white"><span style="background:#f88"><span style="background:#f00"><span style="background:#700"><span style="background:#008">Spintendo </span> </span> </span> </span> </span>]]</span>'''</small> 23:29, 15 March 2018 (UTC) |

{{Ping|Spintendo}} Thank you for creating this diagram. After some thought and reviewing this with people here who are most familiar with our acquisitions, I'm happy with your proposed compromise. It seems reasonable to me to show the acquisitions as a diagram then cover the rest of the history in prose. If you're still comfortable with doing so, please do add the cladogram and the history details. Will you be including references for the cladogram? |
|||
Also, I see you added "The Teradata Analytics Platform was unveiled in 2017" as a bullet point to the milestones (based on the below request). Should a description of the platform be included within the "Technology and products" section, too, since it is a part of the company's current offerings? I wonder if someone familiar with the technology should review this request as well, so am inviting [[User:Seraphimblade]] to take a look here if they can. Thanks for your help.

:{{ping|Dodds Writer}}I've revised the cladogram to include the references from the timeline (''Milestones''). If you could look over this and let me know how it looks. The information in the timeline we can reconfigure into prose if you'd like; If that's the case, I think we should keep the reconfigured prose and the cladogram both, as the cladogram offers a visual representation of what is read in the prose.

Hi, Spintendo. I'm happy to move forward with the sourced cladogram. I've proposed prose above (see the collapsed "Proposed text for consideration"), which is essentially the bullet points written out into full sentences.

Hello again. I have a final (at least for now!) request for improving this Wikipedia article, which I am submitting on behalf of my employer. Currently the first sentence says, "Teradata Corporation is a provider of database-related products and services." Since the article has been updated based on above requests, I'd like to propose changing the first sentence to: "Teradata Corporation is a provider of database and analytics-related products and services." This more accurately describes the company. @Spintendo: You have helped with several requests, so I'm wondering if you agree with this proposed change based on the improvements you've already made. Thanks again for your continued help. Dodds_Writer (Talk · Disclosure: Employee of Teradata) 22:15, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Approved As one of the purposes in maintaining databases is for analysis of data stored within them, it stands to reason that analytics would be a normal and expected companion term for a company already responsible for database services, so I've added that word to the lead. Additionally, I would like to place a Wikilink for the word analytics, but there are several instances of it in Wikipedia. If you could take a look at this analytics disambiguation list and let me know which form of analytics would best be used for that Wikilink, I would appreciate it. Thank you!

Enabling the reference to Aprimo to have its own wiki page
[edit]BeckieSch (talk) 16:17, 5 September 2018 (UTC)BeckieSch
The only existence of Aprimo on Wiki is on this Teradata page, but Teradata no longer owns Aprimo. It's an independent company. I'd like to remove the redirect and begin creation of a separate Aprimo page. How can I begin to do this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by BeckieSch (talk • contribs) 14:22, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
