Entrance singage picture

https://www.reuters.com/technology/facebooks-zuckerberg-kicks-off-its-virtual-reality-event-with-metaverse-vision-2021-10-28/ This is a link from Reuters that shows an unveiling video of the new signage out front of their corporate headquarters and the currently posted "entrance signage" picture on the Meta's Wiki Page is no longer the correct picture, I'm just putting it out there if someone wanted to discuss it to change that picture. I see the name and company logo was changed promptly just not the road sign picture. I would prefer not to be contacted about it I'm not a wiki editor really, just a reader giving a suggestion.

Name change

@SoWhy excuse me but why there is comma (,) after "Meta"? Mehedi Abedin 19:01, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

@Mehediabedin: Since the company previously was called "Facebook, Inc.", the assumption seems to be that the naming will be similar. But I don't know for sure and I haven't made the move. We probably need to wait a bit for official registers to update to the new name. Regards SoWhy 19:31, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Historical uses of the name, subsidiaries, lawsuits, stocks, &c should all remain unchanged if in context a discussion or quote was about Facebook. Facebook-the-platform (which many of these references are about) is still called Facebook, its Irish subsidiary is still Facebook Ireland, &c. Please don't use search and replace :) – SJ + 19:33, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Facebook was formerly owned by "Facebook, inc", and Mark said the parent company will be updated to "Meta" however, the application will remain "Facebook". Since the parent company was named "Facebook, inc", i think "Meta, inc" (with a comma) would be right Motlatlaneo (talk) 03:59, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Please see the discussion below. Also, this article should be moved (to either Meta (company) or Meta Platforms) as soon as possible because "Meta, Inc." is completely incorrect. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:21, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Meta, Inc.Facebook, Inc. – Per WP:COMMONNAME, it is premature to rename this to Meta, as the only coverage that has used this name is articles about the name change itself. A similar debate was had at the Kanye West page, which hasn't been changed to "Ye" yet, for the same reason. 2600:1012:B05D:7959:B50F:F5D3:6C20:1763 (talk) 21:29, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

  • Oppose Most people know Facebook as the service, and that name isn't changing, only the name of the company that owns it, and this becomes very similar to the Alphabet/Google situation. As long as the page leads off that Meta, Inc. was Facebook, Inc. until October 2021, and is still the parent of the Facebook social network service as well as Instagram and WhatsApp, it is fine. The Kayne West/Ye thing is different as there's only one Kayne West of question there. --Masem (t) 21:53, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

  • Support I'd also like to add, the name is more informative; "platforms" is an accurate way to describe the entity that owns Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp, and in our digital "trustbusting" era, is either fodder for regulators or a tacit acknowledgement of and bid to normalize the arrangement. Either way, in addition to being an accurate label, it's an informative one, which aligns with Wikipedia's mission. If a vaping company rebranded as "______ Health" (on the basis of vaping being healthier than smoking, which may actually be false), it would be an example of an uninformative renaming, and I would only support the renaming of the page on the basis of accuracy. I have nothing good to say about Facebook generally so I'm not biased toward calling the company what Zuckerberg wants to call it, but I do think "Meta Platforms" is better for reasons in addition to accuracy. 174.193.213.53 (talk) 18:29, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Request to change the intro paragraph

If we mention mapillary and giphy in the intro, then Instagram, Whatsapp, and Oculus VR should be named there too. The latter three are much more notable. Alternatively remove mapillary, and giphy, and messenger from the into paragraph, and just list subsidiaries later in the article. But at the moment, the impression is given that the most notable subsidiary of Meta is a GIF website, which is very wrong.--91.64.37.35 (talk) 14:29, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Regex caution

It is not appropriate to make regex changes of every Wikipedia occurence of Facebook, Inc. to Meta Platforms, in this article or elsewhere. It would be inaccurate for the Mark Zuckerberg article to state "Zuckerberg founded Meta Platforms in his Harvard University dorm room." And WP:NOTBROKEN says "Do not "fix" links to redirects that are not broken." Please use caution when making any such edits, and open talkpage discussions beforehand if in doubt. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:43, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

However, it is appropriate to change some occurrences of Meta, Inc. to Meta Platforms (or to Facebook, Inc. or Facebook where more appropriate). As Meta, Inc. is an unrelated and non-notable company, such references probably are broken. Certes (talk) 21:47, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Facebook Vs. Meta

In the article, when should the name Facebook be used, and when should we use the name Meta? Should we use the term Facebook for events before the name change to Meta, or should it be done more like changing Eliot Pages's page from Ellen Page to Eliot Page? (having it say Meta with a foot or saying "then Facebook")

Thanks for your time! CuriousCat618 (talk) 20:33, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Yeah it feels weird to me the way it refers to events from last year with "Meta", when that didn't exist. Is there a Wikipedia style guide entry for corporate name changes? ToastyKen (talk) 20:41, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

I don't know where this is documented, but all references to the corporate parent should be "Facebook" up until October 2021, and after "Meta". We document as historically recorded. Also remember that "Facebook" the social media network that is owned by the corporate parent is still Facebook, so that adds a potential layer of confusion. --Masem (t) 20:59, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
I think The title should be Meta, but the contents for Meta should be in seperate sections. If we change all the text that says facebook to meta, it will cause confusion and make no sense at all. E.g add a "history as facebook section", or "rebranding to Meta" section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by UnDoxa (talkcontribs) 23:21, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

The Facebook app name is staying the same. The company that owns the Facebook app changed their name to Meta.Cwater1 (talk) 01:46, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Meta did not announce anything in 2012, because there was no Meta then. The company was called Facebook, Inc., and we should use that name for past events up to this week. Ground Zero | t 02:47, 30 October 2021 (UTC)

Cambridge Analytica scandal

Why is there no reference to the Cambridge Analytica scandal in the US and the record-braking FTC fine Facebook Inc. had to pay? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.90.77.231 (talk) 17:31, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Why does the article say Meta did this, Meta did that before it was Meta?

And there's even a photo of the "Meta" headquarters in 2014.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 20:08, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

That's an error and should be promptly corrected. See the #Regex caution section above. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:25, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Criticism section

I added a criticism section with one noteworthy item, which was later undone by another user, pointing out that "There's a separate article for criticism". I'm aware that there is a separate Criticism of Facebook, but that's on the top of the "Criticisms and controversies" section inside the Facebook article. I believe a Criticism section in this article is justified for criticism expressed against the metaverse company post rebranding, but I'm open to discussion. LifeDancePro (talk) 23:47, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

It seems redundant because regardless of its focus on Facebook, it's still criticism about the company as a whole. – The Grid (talk) 12:28, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
I think there should be a criticism section. I don't have a strong feeling about it, as obviously this is complicated. But famous criticisms of "Facebook" before Oct 2021 were mostly criticisms of the holding company as much as they were the product so the idea that the holding company of Facebook is now unconnected isn't realistic. That said, I think criticism about the naming is recentism and any section should be more about the major newsworthy stuff that will stand the test of time such as them influencing elections, promoting genocides and all the Cambridge Analytica stuff etc. CT55555 (talk) 22:22, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Edit request: incoming redirect

Meta, Inc. redirects to this article. There are several other companies that are frequently called "Meta" . This should be taken into account.

Ongoing discussion here. ClaudineChionh (talkcontribs) 06:27, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
I don't see how this is controversial. It is standard practice to hatnote ambiguous incoming redirects, especially since this one isn't the name of this company. I also don't see how this helps, since it doesn't point any incoming readers to other corporations called Meta, as there is no indication that such subjects exist, except for the current "Meta (company)" article, if they are not looking for either Facebook nor that "Meta (company)". "Meta (company)" already appears on that disambiguation page, as does Facebook. -- 64.229.90.53 (talk) 16:27, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
We should take Meta, Inc., and possibly Meta (company), to RfD once the Meta (company) RM closes and we know the potential targets. Certes (talk) 12:11, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
Meta (company) could become a redirect to Meta (disambiguation) in that event. Minh Nguyễn 💬 16:30, 30 October 2021 (UTC)
I actually agree with the IP that an RfD may not be necessary. Changing the redirect target of Meta, Inc. and Meta Inc. (plus Meta (company) once that RM is closed) to Meta (disambiguation) § Businesses seems like an uncontroversial no-brainer. Does anyone objects to this? InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:36, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
I would keep anything with Meta Inc and Meta Co redirected here, which is now the primary topic, with an added hatnote to Meta (disambiguation) § Businesses to cover all of the rest. I would include Meta (company) as a redirect here, because I would even support an RM to this name, which I believe is the next best thing to Meta itself. StonyBrook (talk) 05:03, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
Agreed. My point above is only that there's no need for deletion. Redirects can handle whatever other names people are likely to enter for these topics. Minh Nguyễn 💬 05:14, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Dispute about the company name Meta

Apparently there is dispute with the "Meta Company" about the name Meta, which Facebook reportedly attempted to acquire but failed: https://www.msn.com/en-in/money/topstories/meta-company-sues-facebook-for-allegedly-stealing-its-name/ar-AAQrBxM - including claims of pressure and trademark infringement.

...this seems to be worthy of inclusion. 84.64.92.108 (talk) 12:02, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

Rename to Meta (company)?

An earlier discussion resulted in the current page name as an improvement over "Meta, Inc.", which was factually inaccurate. This subsequent discussion resulted in an unrelated Meta (company) getting moved to Meta (augmented reality company) and Meta (company) becoming a redirect to Meta Platforms. This makes it possible for Meta Platforms to be moved to Meta (company), since there's little if any mention about keeping Meta (company) as a disambiguation page. Meanwhile, this article's title is being cited as the justification for labeling d:Q380 "Meta Platforms" rather than "Meta" in English.

I personally would be in favor of moving this article to Meta (company), because "Meta Platforms" is neither the company's legal name nor its trade name, but rather a simplification of its legal name. (After all, that's why this article was mistakenly moved to "Meta, Inc." right after the announcement.) At a glance, "Meta Platforms" is seeing some use, but seemingly less prominently than "Meta" in nonspecialist publications so far. As a typical example, [3] uses "Meta" in the headline and "Meta Platforms" in the first sentence. I think this is different than, for example, "Apple Computer", where that company actively went by "Apple Computer" even in its logo for a time. To my knowledge, that hasn't happened with Meta. Before I formally request a move, have I left out any important considerations?

 – Minh Nguyễn 💬 23:55, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

We usually prefer natural disambiguation, i.e. using an alternative name rather than a parenthetical qualifier. WP:NCCORP prefers the current title to the full Meta Platforms, Inc. There's also the complication that Meta (company) referred until very recently to a different company, and may have incoming external links; in fact there's a case for retargetting it to Meta (disambiguation)#Businesses. Many Wikidata item labels differ from Wikipedia titles. If someone wants to change the Wikidata label, they can go ahead without moving any Wikipedia pages. There's no need for the Wikidata tail to wag the Wikipedia dog. Certes (talk) 00:27, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
Much as I would like to have this article moved to Meta (company) myself, Certes seems to be correct here. From the example in Wikipedia:Article titles § NATURALDIS, the French language article could have been parked at French (language), but it wasn't. The policy clearly states that natural disambiguation is preferred, just so long as there is common usage of the term, even if that usage isn't as prevalent as the disambiguated one. StonyBrook (talk) 18:06, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
Perhaps the article can better emphasize that "Meta" is the primary name for this article, despite the article title having "Platforms" as a natural disambiguator. It's understandable that a Wikidata editor would attempt to match the label in English to the English Wikipedia title, minus any parenthetical. Attempts to remove "Platforms" from labels have been quickly undone based on this misunderstanding. Aside from Wikidata, some Wikipedias also unnecessarily disambiguated their article titles out of deference to the English Wikipedia. In contrast to French, it's conceivable that editors will gravitate towards linking to Meta Platforms as is, rather than Meta. Minh Nguyễn 💬 22:59, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

Zuckerberg controls, nay, owns 13% of Meta

Zuckerberg may only 'own' 13% of Meta, but his control is apparently much greater. Basically, although other people may legally 'own' the majority of it, legally, in practice, they don't control it. In effect, they are more like bond holders than owners - they get a share in any profits, but they don't have much control.

"Facebook, which is now Meta, has a dual-class structure, meaning that average shareholders own one type of stock, Class A, while Zuckerberg and a small circle of insiders hold another type, Class B. Holders of Class B stock get 10 votes per share, while Class A holders only get one vote " -- https://www.businessinsider.com/why-mark-zuckerberg-cant-be-fired-as-meta-facebook-ceo-2022-11?r=US&IR=T Ben Aveling 09:31, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Meta's name was stolen from another company. Mark Zuckerberg sent a request to buy the name "META" from this company. They declined. Mark then stole the name anyway and used it, using his money to dismiss the smaller company. Thats how this despicable company opperates. It doesn't need laws, it just takes what it wants. 49.195.6.46 (talk) 21:05, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

"Reception"

"Reception" is not an appropriate section name.

Unqualified, "Reception" as the name of a section in an article about a conglomerate means, on its face, "reception of the conglomerate".

Rename to "Rebranding Reception" or some such. 2603:3024:1818:4800:DC86:2F45:2F8B:466E (talk) 19:26, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Add "Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg acknowledged in a letter on Monday that Facebook faced pressure from the Biden-Harris administration to censor certain content, particularly related to COVID-19. This admission came in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, over a year after Zuckerberg had already supplied the committee with thousands of documents as part of its investigation into content moderation on online platforms."

Zuckerberg's revelations

[4] (The Guardian), [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], etc.; there are many reliable sources about this, e.g. The Guardian. JacktheBrown (talk) 18:20, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

Is there an edit you are particularly advocating for? And I'd also point out there are plenty of analyses suggesting this "revelation" isn't all that revealing... [14] [15] [16]. --ZimZalaBim talk 19:01, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
