FreeBSD or Linux? edit
"Panasas is FreeBSD-based Linux cluster storage system". FreeBSD and/or Linux? Both, either, other? -- Henriok (talk) 00:03, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Ethernet edit
What does "10 ethernet" mean? The most I can guess - using 10 gigabit ethernet ports. Bandwidth numbers are too large to be 10baseT or 100baseT.
Awards section removed from article edit
The list of articles on its own is not encyclopedic as a list. Wikipedia should not be a direct copy of a company's web site. For this to not be considered SPAM it will need to be written in prose in a paragraph. The section should somehow give a reason behind why this list of awards is significant.

Resolve "multiple issues"? edit
The Panasas page has a Multiple Issues template-generated header with issues that date back to 2010 (verifiability) and 2011 (advertisement). I would like to submit that subsequent changes to the page have addressed these issues. Am raising this for discussion before proceeding with submitting an edit request template.

New section edit
 | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
I am requesting removal of "multiple issues" template-generated header based on the age of said issues and the current content of the page which I do not see as being advertising or having concerns with verifiability of information. Please note discussion posted above on 19 January meant to raise this for community discussion. Thank you and please let me know of any questions.

- On the technical points:
Not done: According to the page's protection level you should be able to edit the page yourself. If you seem to be unable to, please reopen the request with further details. It's not a template and it's not protected.
- On the content points:
- A high proportion of the sources are the company's website or press releases;
- The content details the source of the company's capital and a description of its products but gives no indication of why the company might be notable.
- If I were to encounter the article as a recent creation I'd tag it for speedy deletion A7, G11. So no, I don't agree the tags should be removed. Bazj (talk) 19:34, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
Possible misinterpretation of source? edit
Since I have a conflict of interest, I am not going to make non-trivial edits to this article, but I would like to draw the reader's attention to a possible unsourced or poorly sourced statement.
"PanFS 7.0 added a FreeBSD operating foundation and a GUI that supports asynchronous push notification of system changes without user interaction.[19] "
The cited source doesn't say anything about the GUI and/or asynchronous push notification. Also, the cited source doesn't say that 7.0 "added" FreeBSD, it says that it "updated" FreeBSD (to clarify, this means that the implementation is using a more recent version of FreeBSD than was used in previous versions of PanFS).

Category edit
@Johnpacklambert: I see that Panasas has been put in the category 1999 establishments in California. Although Panasas has been headquartered in California for many years, I am pretty sure it was established in Pennsylvania. The article does not give details or a source for this; probably WP:OR would be necessary to confirm or rebut. Bruce leverett (talk) 14:06, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
Panasas Portfolio edit
@Viewsonic1080: The new subsection, "Panasas Portfolio", cites only one source, which is a Panasas press release. Wikipedia strongly discourages reliance on press releases and other self-published source (see WP:SELFPUB). The article should cite a more suitable source, such as an article (printed or online) published and written by persons and organizations not directly connected with Panasas itself. If such a source cannot be found, editors will generally consider this subsection to be unsuitable for inclusion in the article. Bruce leverett (talk) 00:42, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
