List two missing "Zulip, Inc." cofounders.

edit

Hello! I'm Chris Bobbe, a software engineer employed by Kandra Labs (makers of Zulip). I'd like to help improve Zulip's stub article by providing sources and suggestions, while following Wikipedia's conflict-of-interest policies, e.g., by respecting editors' time and independence, and by not editing the article myself.

  • What I think should be changed: The original 2012-2014 company "Zulip, Inc." that was sold to Dropbox had two more cofounders that aren't mentioned: Waseem Daher and Jeff Arnold. That is, in addition to the two that are mentioned, Tim Abbott and Jessica McKellar. All four should be mentioned in the article's introductory paragraph and in the "Original author(s)" field in the metadata.
  • Why it should be changed: For completeness.
  • References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button): An already-cited source [1] includes all four names.

I see no possible controversy around this request, and verified the information from the TechCrunch source, so I implemented this change. Thanks for being so thoughtful about this, Chris! blinry (talk) 16:43, 7 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Update the screenshot.

  • What I think should be changed: The screenshot captioned "Screenshot of the Zulip web interface" should be updated to the image at https://zulip.com/static/images/features/message-formatting.png.
  • Why it should be changed: The old screenshot was last updated 5 years ago; this one is newer.
  • References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button): This is the screenshot that appears on the "Zulip Features" page [1].
