Template:Find sources notice

Image of the Valamis headquarters

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at A. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Add to the company infobox after logo_caption image of the headquarters.

Suggested lines:
| image = Valamis's headquarters in Joensuu.jpg
| image_caption = Valamis's headquarters in Joensuu

The image also can be found here. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Valamis%27s_headquarters_in_Joensuu.jpg

Several different logos are seen within this picture. Are these logos all related within this company, or are they merely tenants in the same building? I'm not sure what kind of issues there would be with posting a picture carrying different logos and placing that picture here, in effect, using representations of other logos to identify this company. Does anyone else know? spintendo 14:15, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Finland, where the building is located, does have freedom of panorama for buildings per c:COM:FOP#Finland, so a photo of the building itself should be OK. As for the signage on the building, I believe it could be argued that this is a case of de minimis (c:COM:DM) or incidental inclusion since the focus of the photo is the building, not the individual signs, and it would be impossible to take a photo of the building without including the signs. If this was a close up photo of one of the signs on the building, it might be a problem. There's nothing really about this in c:COM:DM#Finland, but I think it should be OK since this kind of thing is allowed in the EU per c:COM:DM#European Union. Since the file is from Commons, asking at c:COM:VPC might help clarify things. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:32, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I see that both of those instances you mentioned are covered by WP:IUP which states:

Some images may contain trademarked logos incidentally (or purposely if the image is either freely licensed, covered under freedom of panorama, or being too simple to be copyrightable). If this is the case, please tag it with {{trademark}}.

So if the COI editor could add the trademark template to the photograph, then I will add the photograph to the article. Thank you Marchjuly for your help its much appreciated! spintendo 15:02, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

By adding {{trademark}} tag, wouldn't this affect any other rights or licenses? currently, it is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license, and this picture was made by me? -- Ivan.Andreev (talk) 15:46, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The trademark template is supposed to be used when the content is in the public domain: "Use this template only if the trademarked material is in the public domain or is under a free license: for example, if it is ineligible for copyright status, or has been specifically released by the owner under a free-content license". W:IUP suggests its use when other logos are incidentally shown, as is the case with your photo. In this case the picture itself is CC, but the CC picture contains within it trademarked logos. The trademark template simply acknowledges that even though the picture is free, the things that the picture depicts (i.e., the logos − which are essentially pictures within the picture) may not be free. That is my interpretation of it. Others are free to chime in if this is incorrect. spintendo 17:18, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Once you've affixed the template to the picture and you're ready for it to be added to the article, kindly change the edit request template's answer parameter to read from ans=yes to ans=no; I can then add it to the article. Thank you! spintendo 20:14, 3 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Spintendo, thank you for your help. {{trademark}} tag added, check it please for any occasion Image. -- Ivan.Andreev (talk) 08:26, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Picture added to infobox.

Naming convention

What was the special reason why Limited was allowed for use in the article title (See WP:NCCORP) and as an abbreviation no less... I don't see Valamis Group as already being occupied. Just curious. spintendo 11:52, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's my bad, main issue is that the main product name is "Valamis", it is a software, so I've used the legal name for this page. Technically, Valamis Group will work to differentiate pages in the future. -- Ivan.Andreev (talk) 14:12, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is it possible to update the url and name according to the Naming convention (See WP:NCCORP)? E.g. Valamis or Valamis Group to make it proper way and differentiate this page from the product. -- Ivan.Andreev (talk) 16:52, 2 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Operating income

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I've checked the reference for "Operating income", and it requires improvements. It is open data, language is Finnish, turnover for 2018 was € 9,8 mln. Source -- Ivan.Andreev (talk) 14:18, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reply to 'Operating income' 04-JUL-2018

Done

The source Fonecta is an approximate for company published information which should work with financial items. These are broadly accepted in other articles from sources published by companies. I have placed this under operating income. spintendo 23:02, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
