Added/removed websites
editAdded gigya.com as it is a popular social login service. I also removed Lanoba.com as the website is no longer resolving - it may be closed down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.103.244.178 (talk)
Merge with Single sign-on
editArticle reads like PR fluff, key details can be merged. ViperSnake151 Talk 17:10, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Personally I find the tone informative and balanced – the Advantages and Disadvantages sections give useful perspective on the subject – and the article tend towards plain english. Are there any specific sections you feel could be made more encyclopaedic? This IS a subtopic of Single sign-on, but merging this full article would give undue weight to this one area. Perhaps better to summarise this article into a brief section with this as the linked Template:Main article. Artemgy (talk) 10:05, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

meaning of "identities" unclear
editIn section "Application" at the end of the phrase "..., the majority of social networks and consumer-based identity providers allow identities." the meaning of the word "identities" seems unclear. Suggestions: - "fake identities" - "pseudonyms" - add reference to article on the meaning of "identities" in the context of this one. (BucovinaClubMate (talk) 20:11, 1 September 2019 (UTC))
List of providers
editI renamed the section to List of notable providers from the long winded List of common social networking services using social login and put an explanatory sentence instead. However I wonder how this list could be improved. It's useful to have a list of providers, but perhaps it could benefit from additional information. E.g. Features, link to specific information on their social login interface. Any other suggestions? Artemgy (talk) 10:20, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
