Infobox formatting issue

Hi there! The image in the infobox is not displaying correctly. Can someone please fix it? Thanks, Daylen (talk) 23:02, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

@Daylen: the specific infobox template that you used has different parameters than most other ones. Please see {{infobox website}} for a list of parameters. I fixed it for now, but perhaps you would want to use a different infobox? --Majora (talk) 23:17, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Thanks @Majora:! Daylen (talk) 23:18, 15 May 2017 (UTC)

Ring Video Doorbell → Ring (company) – The company makes products in addition to doorbells, such as outdoor security cameras and a video recording service. The title only represents one product, instead of the entire company. Daylen (talk) 17:58, 20 May 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 21:47, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

• The article would need a significant expansion first since so far it only coves the doorbell. The two options I see here to to either expand this article into a genraral one about the company, or, if the doorbell is independently notable, create a separate article for the company keeping this article at the current title.--64.229.167.158 (talk) 15:39, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
• Support. Per nom. The title change will encourage a few minor updates to make the article be about the company (and products); not just the doorbell. I see no need for two articles at this time. --В²C ☎ 20:23, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Naming

Last year User:ViperSnake151 renamed this article from "Ring (company)", which would be the usual pattern according to WP:NCCORP, apparently without discussion. The mover claimed that "Ring Inc." is the natural name. I can find only one source that uses Ring Inc (Bloomberg), a handful that use Ring llc/LLC (e.g. Dun & Bradstreet, Lexology), and the company seems to refer to itself as just Ring or Ring.com. Therefore I suggest the article title should return to Ring (company). Colonies Chris (talk) 10:23, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

I support the move back to Ring (company), as Ring is the common name and it is unclear whether the entity name uses the LLC or the Inc. suffix. — Newslinger talk 13:37, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Move to Ring LLC

Many other pages use their suffix to differentiate themselves from other pages of similar names. Since LLC can be used, it probably should. ^Wiinter_U 12:58, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
