Update?

I noticed all of the references are from 2007. Looks like it might be due for some updates. Kevink707 (talk) 20:06, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Refresh

Refreshed the article. Edited out some irrelevant bits about the enterprise version and features. Cleaned up some marketing speak. Kept references to the enterprise version but not as much detail or fanfare. Added links to competing products, such as bmc, ca, and hp.

I forgot to edit while signed in. Sorry. Myke1829 (talk) 03:05, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Platforms?

Some critical (and very basic) details are missing... like, what platforms are supported for the server and client? BobbyPeru 16:34, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Platform is a good piece of info to provide. I'm researching some history right now. Also on the to-do list for this article is to cite some outside sources. Myke1829 10:46, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure looks to me like an advertisement, the talk sounds like what would be written on the company's website. There is no comparision with or links to similar/competing tools, et cetera... Ctpm 22:39, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rewriting this page to removed some of the marketing copy, which was primarily the list of features. I'll incorporate some of this back in an appropriate style, as needed. I will be expanding the history and technology overview sections a bit more. In addition, I identified a section for competing products. Myke1829 11:12, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Still a few history pieces to fill in, at least in my opinion (e.g., when did Zenoss Inc. form). This article is back to NPOV, so I removed the advert tag. Article could use some proofreading. Myke1829 03:04, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a good article but it still has quite a strong advertising-ish feel abut it, so restoring the tag here in Talk. It's not a bad case at all but it still doesn't quite pass the smell test. — ciphergoth 11:49, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Are there particular passages in this article that strike the advertising tag fancy, such as the talk about the enterprise version? Revisions will help the article, but I'd like to hear some examples from others. Myke1829 (talk) 02:16, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Added notes

I added in some notes - founding date, corrected some spelling, added in recent milestones. Definitely could use a refresh on core software features.--Dliedholm (talk) 17:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

External Links

Open Management Consortium link is broken. Awildman (talk) 17:41, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 18:22, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 00:20, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Change article name to Zenoss Core

Hi, can we change the name of this article to Zenoss Core?

Zenoss Core is a product of Zenoss. We need to create a new article called "Zenoss" that will be used for their main company page.

What is the best way to go about doing this? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
