Ingressos de Twitter[edit]

Bona tarda, a la pàgina de viquipèdia de Twitter hi ha els ingressos de l'empresa en pesos mexicans, algú sap el perquè no està en les principals monedes munidals (dòlars i euros)? Moltes gràcies.  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Oleguer8 (talk • contribs) at 12:41, 8 October 2020‎ (UTC).[reply]

owned by is incorrect![edit]

Someone added Owned by in April to show Twitter owned by Elon Musk -- but that is factually incorrect! The deal is in process and far from finalized.

That seems right. I removed the statement. --LydiaPintscher (talk) 18:09, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Premature renaming[edit]

It seems odd for the page to be named X when the service is still referred to as Twitter, including within the app and site. I also don't think that listing x.com as an official site makes sense, that is just a redirect to the actual site, twitter.com - Odin (talk) 17:34, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Odin Totally agree. There is no official source for that and nowhere on the website pages the name Twitter was replaced by X (e.g.). Also, even if a new logo appeared today, the logo is still officially the same. Also I precise that this unofficial new name is X and not 𝕩 (with the mathematical Double-Struck Small X). The logo was created recently copying the X of the font "monotype special alphabets 4".--Harmonizator (talk) 18:30, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not too concerned about the logo as there is wide reporting about that change, however, it's framed as an "interim" logo, meaning it will likely need to be updated again in the near future. - Odin (talk) 18:50, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. @Epicamused, please stop your edit war over these changes. The logo has changed, but the website URL and other attributes still haven't. You are being too fast and reckless. Please stop. stjn[ru] 08:49, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
the name has been changed (see twitter.com/Twitter) Epicamused (talk) 08:49, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, the actual name hasn’t changed. It’s still ‘Twitter’ on the website, ‘Sign in to Twitter’ etc. You are not correct. x.com is also not the actual domain yet. stjn[ru] 08:51, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Like, yes, the social media account has the name ‘X’ (not 𝕏 btw that you are reverting to), but the whole website interface is still using ‘Twitter’, and that’s obviously far more important. stjn[ru] 08:53, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have added X as an alias in the meantime, as it is sometimes being used to refer to the platform. Twitter should stay the main label until the transition completes. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 15:47, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also added a deprecated official name statement to prevent others from adding it erroneously. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 15:53, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The Android app was renamed to X, and also displays the X logo as well. As for the website, it's saying X as well (as in Home / X, which previously read Home / Twitter) , and as of now you can use x.com/(standard path of a twitter URL), and that'll work just as it should work with twitter.com, however I think the actual URL change will commence soon as well. -- User:CrystalLemonade16:58, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The iOS app has also been renamed and rebranded. I think it is appropriate to have the label as X now. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 23:03, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Login pages on web still have ‘Twitter. It’s what’s happening’ in the title, ‘Join Twitter’, etc., so no, rename should not happen yet before the rebranding is actually fully complete. Please do not rush into recentism. stjn[ru] 19:29, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This is not Wikipedia though 240D:1A:4FB:1E00:C74C:7420:3735:EE5E 11:09, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Restored ‘Twitter’ once again in cases where Wikipedia articles use ‘Twitter’ as the page name. Please cease from using the new name where it is not used by the Wikipedia language communities. stjn[ru] 11:25, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Sofie Geneea, @Прикли — please take note. I will revert your edits indefinitely if you keep doing changes that are not based on how language communities in question refer to the entity. stjn[ru] 11:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, but can you also make sure that the "Also known as" field contains the new name? Sofie Geneea (talk) 11:36, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
