Sections regarding Ponder are not up to date

Ponder is not available on the app store. It has been removed. If you google "app store ponder" and though the link comes up, it goes to the itunes home page. The Twitter profile for the application @Ponder gives a link to download it which returns a 404 error. The main website pndr.co is no longer available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.68.152.191 (talk) 20:12, 29 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to make a few changes to William LeGate's account. I believe there are a few mistakes. Thanks. TheMajorHarambe (talk) 01:36, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

One of the statements is wrong and the source cannot verify it. "and computer programmer described by Business Insider as one of the most powerful people in tech" I went to business insider and William Legate is nowhere to be found on the source provided. This statement is wrong and should be appropriately removed. Pmcm1 (talk) 23:51, 5 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: He made the list. Quoting the source: "Another powerful 20-year-old: William LeGate, a 2013 Thiel fellow, created two apps called Ponder and Synapps." —C.Fred (talk) 21:04, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Citation number 8 needs a new source as it currently a primary source and sans the twitter profile no mention of the 7 million downloads can be corroborated. GooseMoose (talk) 17:04, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Twitter

While his account was still active, his replies to Trump's tweets were among the "top".

He was featured in a Washington Post article:

"Most Twitter users, though, don’t bother to click on Trump’s individual tweets to see the thousands of replies each receives. If they did, they’d discover a little-known community: LeGate, Williams, Uhl and scores of other recurring names — the folks who’ve made a devout habit of talking back to the commander in chief on Twitter."[1]

But he eventually deleted/deactivated his account.[2] Riley Cohen (talk) 19:39, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
