obsolete comment

Who says it's captured the public's attention? 70.42.157.62 (talk) 23:00, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This language no longer appears in the article. --Tom Cox (talk) 19:56, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Title change suggestion

I think we should change to the name of this page to eosio as they have rebranded yesterday. omegshi147 • talk 21:39, 6 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

awful sourcing

This article has awful sourcing (mostly primary). Looping a couple other crypto editors @Jytdog: & @Smallbones: & @Retimuko: to add this to their patrol. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 13:53, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request to add Wikilink

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

As per MOS:DL, please create wiki link for Brendan Blumer in the infobox just like it is done for Daniel Larimer in the same field.

This needs to be done in the "original authors" field of the infobox because adding a wikilink in the infobox is helpful for readers to navigate as per MOS:DL.

This is also the first occurrence of the name in the article and as far as the article for Brendan Blumer exists, this should be wikilinked. 203.82.59.110 (talk) 11:08, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Still under active development

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

On the sidebar of the article, change Latest release from 1.1.4 / August 8, 2018 to 1.8.1 / 09-Jul-2019

Sources: https://github.com/EOSIO/eos/releases and the release notes: https://github.com/EOSIO/eos/releases/tag/v1.8.1

The last line of the 'History' section needs to be updated similarly. Please change 1.1.4 to 1.8.1

Distributed equally?

"computing resources distributed equally among EOS cryptocurrency holders" This is misleading Vizslah (talk) 13:42, 22 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is definitely misleading. A more accurate statement would be something like "computing resources are distributed in proportion to the number of tokens staked for each of the two renewable resources, CPU and Network." More info on this is available here: https://www.eoscanada.com/en/what-does-staking-and-unstaking-eos-tokens-mean --Tom Cox (talk) 20:32, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

we can't use that as a source, we need something mainstream Jtbobwaysf (talk) 06:43, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Brock Pierce

Why isn't Brock Pierce even mentioned in article?? What's up with EOS? - Brock Pierce Interviewed by Roger Ver video (uploaded by "Bitcoin.com - Official Channel" on Oct 28, 2019) at YouTube has thumbnail (aka preview image) of "Exclusive interview with Brock Pierce co-founder of EOS". Wikipedia's Brock Pierce article currently says "currency was named EOS and marketed through a new vehicle called Block.one of which Pierce was variously described as co-founder, head, minority partner and advisor." --EarthFurst (talk) 00:52, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Brock was included in article once (perhaps more than once), but was removed with this edit in 2018 April with edit summary of a story at fortune.com that "Block.one" had parted way with Brock. But that fortune.com story also said Brock Pierce had "co-founded" the startup Block.one which was "developing blockchain platform EOS", so i think article should include him in the block.one section of this Wikipedia article. --EarthFurst (talk) 02:45, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Brock should be mentioned in the article's history. But if he is no longer involved, not sure if he should be in the infobox. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 04:19, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 6 July 2020

It is requested that an edit be made to the extended-confirmed-protected article at EOS.IO. (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 extended confirmed 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 {{EEp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Two changes, there are more inaccuracies.

1)Change this line EOSIO's Dawn 1.0 was launched on the EOSIO mainnet on June 1, 2018 To EOSIO's Dawn 1.0 was launched on the EOSIO mainnet on June 10, 2018 and was activated on June 14, 2018. ^[1]

2) Add another Block Explorer https://eosauthority.com Writercreate (talk) 17:01, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification?

What does " smart contract platform " mean in traditional, general English?
