Ownership of Snowbird Mountain Resort

Though not listed on the wiki, Powdr corporation website lists Snowbird, UT as an owned property. https://www.powdr.com/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:100e:b1b6:72ec:e53a:58a8:c42d:e6a4 (talk) 00:34, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Outside Magazine reported in this article of May 13, 2014, that majority ownership of the Snowbird resort was purchased by "the Cumming family, owners of Powdr Corporation". It did not report complete ownership, and it reported the majority owner as the family rather than the Powdr company. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:01, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Powdr Corporation → POWDR Corporation – POWDR was spelled wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalsmn5779 (talk • contribs) 19:26, 23 December 2022

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Polyamorph (talk) 09:52, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kalsmn5779: It is what it is per WP:NCCAPS. – robertsky (talk) 21:04, 23 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but per their brand guidelines it is POWDR not Powdr. https://www.powdr.com/ Please capitalize POWDR. Kalsmn5779 (talk) 22:02, 23 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We do not follow individual organization's brand guidelines. We are an encyclopedia. If you want to pursue this further, please click the "discuss" link provided in your request. That will initiate a formal move request discussion. UtherSRG (talk) 01:21, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any spelling difference. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 05:52, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strong oppose per MOS:TM / WP:TITLETM / MOS:ALLCAPS. I see cited independent sources using "Powdr" in their headlines, and "brand guidelines" are something we generally ignore on Wikipedia. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:53, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Instead, move the article to Powdr, per WP:NCCORP. There are no other articles about "Powdr" on Wikipedia. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:13, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

John or Ian Cumming?

The Wikipedia article says the company was founded by John Cumming in 1994. Outside Magazine reported the founder as Ian Cumming, the father of John Cumming, in this article of May 13, 2014. Which is more accurate? —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:01, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The company website's "Our people" page at https://www.powdr.com/our-people supports the statement that the company was founded by John Cumming in 1994. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 14:38, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
