Apple Computer[edit]

This article is the current focus of WikiProject Macintosh, so while everyone's working how about giving us something to do, eh? --HereToHelp (talk) 23:19, 12 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]


My only quibble is that the last picture of Steve Jobs looks out of place. It either needs to be larger or higher up on the page so it doesn't get cut off by the section below's line. Spawn Man 03:15, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • If you're looking to get this to FA, it's got a ways to go. 1) The list of products would need to be moved off to its own list article and replaced with a well written summary of the most important products. 2) The slogans just need to be moved out entirely with perhaps the most important one or two discussed in a good summary paragraph. 3) The litigation section is way too long and should be moved out to it's own article and summarized here. 4) Needs more and better references. Some of the books listed in the further reading section would be good places to start and cite important material to them. Using only online references and not formatting them properly as references (see Wikipedia:Cite sources) is not a good FA level practice. - Taxman Talk 23:18, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • OK, here's my take: there is nothing on Scully, who Apple brought in. He was a soft-drink executive for goodness sake! Info needs to be incorporated in about the various CEOs. One source (which I own) is Sculley's Pepsi to Apple. Might be worthwhile incorporating into the article.
We need more info about the past products and software. We only have current products - and I notice that in the infobox there is a link to Apple Computer#Products, which does not exist! What about information about the different corporate divisions that make up the company? Marketing strategies? There is much more to Apple Computer than just the technology, after all. - Ta bu shi da yu 04:00, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
