Why make this a seperate article?

It's only now that I have noticed that this article which had originally been a redirect page to Roblox has now been changed into an independent article in This revision. Could anyone please explain why this has been split from Roblox and if there was consensus for the split? Thanks. Slender (talk) 14:47, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Could you maybe explain your opposition? The company passes NCORP, is the simplest answer. No explicit consensus is required to make it, though there was a discussion on Talk:Roblox that it was likely time to create it after the IPO. -- ferret (talk) 14:50, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Slenderman7676 because the name was referring to the corporation, not the game with the same name Priklemin (talk) 15:24, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change date to April 9, 2004

Not done. The incorporation date is not necessarily equivalent to when a business launches operations. IceWelder [✉] 14:23, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Add Yahoo Finance and Google Finance links to the page under the NYSE ticker because the NYSE stocks page might not work for some people. 118.179.97.21 (talk) 15:20, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. I believe it is common across Wikipedia to keep the infobox clear of additional links for stocks. -- Pinchme123 (talk) 04:57, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We generally only include include the NYSE link. Take Berkshire Hathaway for example. —Panamitsu (talk) 05:08, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, additional stock info links are already found at the bottom of the page. IceWelder [✉] 09:38, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change "Cassel died from cancer on February 11, 2013" to "Cassel died from Brain Cancer on February 11, 2013" MeepMade (talk) 19:38, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. No already existing sources claims that erik.cassel has died from brain cancer. They just say he has lost his fight against cancer. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 01:00, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

LinkedIn and Twitter aren't reliable sources. For most entries, it should be sufficient to list the common name instead of the full level name, which in some instances would be unsourced. IceWelder [✉] 17:47, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done:Per above. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 02:19, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
