Hello Wikipedians, I am a content manager at Western Digital.

Due to my COI, I will not be making these changes directly. Thank you.
1. In the Lead, REPLACE "Tegile Systems is a manufacturer of flash storage arrays based in Newark, California." WITH "Tegile Systems is a brand of Western Digital that manufactures flash storage arrays." Western Digital acquired Tegile Systems in 2017. Tegile is now a brand of Western Digital. http://fortune.com/2017/08/29/western-digital-tegile/ https://www.zdnet.com/article/western-digital-buys-flash-storage-company-tegile-systems/

- Your edit request could not be reviewed because the provided references are not formatted correctly. The citation style predominantly used by the Tegile Systems article is Citation Style 1 (CS1). The citation style used in the edit request consists of bare URL's.[a] Any requested edit of yours which may be implemented will need to resemble the current style already in use in the article – in this case, CS1. In the extended section below titled Citation style examples, I have illustrated two: the first shows how the edit request was submitted, the second shows how requests should be submitted in the future.
Citation style examples
|
---|
In the example above there are three URL's provided with the claim statements, but these URL's have not been placed using Citation Style 1, which is the style predominantly used by the Tegile Systems article. Your edit request similarly uses only bare URL's for the references. Using the correct style, the WikiFormatted text should resemble the following:
In the example above the references have been formatted according to Citation Style 1, which shows the author, the source's name, date, etc., all information which is lost when only the links are provided. As Wikipedia is a volunteer project, edit requests such yours are generally expected to have this formatting done before the request is submitted for review. |
Kindly rewrite your edit request so that it aligns more with the second example shown in the collapsed section above, and feel free to re-submit that edit request at your earliest convenience. If you have any questions about this formatting please don't hesitate to ask myself or another editor. Regards, Spintendo 01:43, 27 March 2019 (UTC)

Guideline: It is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor or adopted by the consensus of editors already working on the page, unless a change in consensus has been achieved. If the article you are editing is already using a particular citation style, you should follow it.
