Requesting updates

Hi! I'm Bridget, and I'll be taking over for Jordan who previously worked with editors to keep the Vimeo article up to date. I am aware of the rules for conflict of interest editors, and will not make any changes to the article myself. I'm new here, and eager to learn the ropes. Today, I'd like to ask for a few changes.

• In Leadership, add a timestamp for when Anjali Sud became the CEO, and her previous roles within the company. This article confirms the following:

• Appointed as CEO in July 2017
• Joined Vimeo in 2014 and worked as vice president and head of global marketing

• In Product offerings and revenue structure add:

• Brief description of the plan structure. This review explains it as of October 2021.
• Mention of the interactive features added following our purchase of Wirewax. This source talks about them.
• Mention of Vimeo Events. This article talks about it.

Okay, that's all for now. I am happy to prepare content if that's preferable. @Masem: I see that you helped Jordan in the past. Would you be willing to review my requests? Appreciate the help! BK Vimeo (talk) 17:32, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

@BK Vimeo: We do need to watch the sources you are suggesting, as they all are not reliable, and we also need to avoid excessive promotion. I was able to find a source for Sud's CEO from a known reliable source (RS) so that's fine. I turned to press releases and internal blogs for the Wirewax and Events stuff. On the plan breakdown, that's starting to get too much promotional (eg looking at that article the distinction between Plus and Pro aren't as significant from our standpoint). We want to make sure this says Vimeo has put in place more advanced plans including Enterprise, but I don't know if we can go further into that without more RSes that discuss them in depth.

@Masem: Thank you, thank you! I completely understand your reasoning on the plan structure. In my research, I saw that press releases aren't preferred sources, but it sounds like you're okay with them for basic info, is that correct? I appreciate the guidance.

We can't lean too heavily into them, and we also need to avoid being overly promotional. Hence why I could lean on the blog post to add onto the sourced part of Wirewax's acquisition, and how that video feature will us it. If you had a completely brand new feature out of nowhere with no sourcing but press releases, that might be a problem. Masem (t) 17:58, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

I see, thank you for that clarification, I'll keep it in mind for future requests. BK Vimeo (talk) 20:41, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

Article Updates

Hello, this is Leroy at Vimeo. I've taken on the role of periodically seeking updates to this article. I've learned about the rules for COI edits, and like other Vimeo employees, I will stick to the Talk page to suggest changes instead of making direct changes. The first changes I want to ask about are:

• The number of users was updated to 300 million in the Infobox on February 28. Can we update that number in '''Customer size''' as well?

• I see sections with recognition are common. I am hoping we can add such a section to the Vimeo article. If so, would being on Fast Company's list of most innovative companies count? I can look for others, as well.

@Masem: Thanks for helping others in the past. Tagging you here in case you're still available to help with article updates.

Thank you for reviewing, and please reach out with questions or feedback. Leroy at Vimeo (talk) 16:00, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

AI tools addition

Hello, as part of my work with Beutler Ink, I have been asked by Vimeo to periodically request updates to this Wikipedia article. Because of my financial conflict of interest, I will not directly edit the article, instead hoping that independent editors will make appropriate changes on my behalf.

I'd like to suggest adding mention of the recent addition of AI tools to 2020–present, and have prepared the following addition using a reliable source:

• Vimeo added a new suite of AI powered tools to its software in June 2023, including a script generator, on-camera teleprompter, and an editing option to automatically remove pauses and filler-words.

@Masem: Inviting you to take a look, as I know you've reviewed requests from past Vimeo representatives.

Feedback and suggestions are always welcome. Cheers! BINK Robin (talk) 18:06, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

I don't see any issues with that adding (sourced to a third-party and generally neutral in tone) so I've added it. Masem (t) 01:03, 3 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for reviewing! Cheers, BINK Robin (talk) 15:09, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
