Talk:Fiverr

Request for change

Hi. I work for Lemonade (insurance). We have no connection to Fiverr, except that we were both co-founded by Shai Wininger. I noticed Shai wasn’t in the infobox like founders are on other pages and realized Wikipedia was using the website infobox here, even though most of the article is about the company, its acquisitions, history, etc. Should this be switched over to a company infobox?

{{Infobox company
| name             = Fiverr International Ltd.
| traded_as        = {{NYSE|FVRR}}
| logo             =
| commercial       = Yes
| type             = Public
| area_served      = Worldwide
| industry = [[Online marketplace]]
| product= [[Freelance marketplace]]
| content_license  =
| owner            = Fiverr International Limited
| hq_location = [[Tel Aviv]], [[Israel]]
| author           =
|founders =Micha Kaufman and Shai Wininger
| key_people = Micha Kaufman, CEO
| products =  [[Freelance marketplace]] fiverr.com
| founded = February 2010
| revenue          = $75.5 million (2019)
| current_status   = Active
| employees = 363 (2019)
| footnotes        =
}}

@Debmoher: {{Infobox website}} is more specific than {{Infobox company}}, so it would be better to stick with that. Since the former template does support the fields that you are requesting, however, I went ahead and added them. – voidxor 01:06, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

URL

User:Beetstra, why is their website blacklisted? Drmies (talk) 02:43, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Drmies, because it was spammed? Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 04:52, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean, Dirk. You mean people were inserting it in other articles? Can we unlist it and see if that's still the case? Thanks, Drmies (talk) 16:27, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Drmies, I mean, fiverr was spammed. It is a ‘company provides a platform for freelancers to offer services to customers worldwide’, and people were abusing it.

There is no reason to remove it and open the floodgates, we have a whitelist to allow specific links through. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 19:36, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

OK. Thanks. Drmies (talk) 19:56, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

User:cyberpower678, you (or your bot) are on this talk page. Can you look over this, and see if blacklisting is still justified? Drmies (talk) 16:28, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

My bot only reported the blacklisted links. I’m not a good person to make the call whether or not it’s still justified.—CYBERPOWER (Around) 16:37, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

FWIW, I remember some people spamming their gigs to other articles (examples: [1][2][3][4]). I don't really remember it being that widespread though, more along the slightly annoying level of spam. Apparition^{11 Complaints}/Mistakes 19:23, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

Link to Wrong Person

The link in the infobox to Micha Kaufman directs to the shooter instead of to the entrepreneur. That page even has a notice on it redirecting people back to a section of this page about the right person (although that section does not exist).

Please fix these problems. 1.127.108.248 (talk) 14:01, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Fixed. Thanks for pointing it out. --ZimZalaBim ^talk 18:49, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Dead Link Found On The Page

Hey Wiki Moderators,

I was reading the Fiverr Wikipedia page today and found that it has a dead/broken citation. Link is as follows https://www.thelaptopbucks.com/opportunities/make-money-on-fiverr/

I wish to replace it with a similar external source to source having more quality content on the topic https://www.spyopinion.com/easy-fiverr-gigs/. I hope it will add more value to this article.

Thanks AamirZahoorSEO (talk) 08:08, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Please stop trying to link to your blog. It is not a reliable source and is considered spamming. Apparition^{11 Complaints}/Mistakes 11:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

That is great, But what about the previously added link? It was also linking to a blog and you did not take action against it. How can you be biased in your decision? I have not done anything wrong and don't like your excuse either. Is this reserved for you only to give external links to the sites you get paid. Ridiculous AamirZahoorSEO (talk) 13:17, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Ignoring your baseless and ridiculous accusation about me being paid, if the existing link is a blog, it should be replaced with a WP:RS, not your blog. Apparition^{11 Complaints}/Mistakes 14:28, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
