thread_title:  Potential conflict of interest by [[User:Fmhensle]]  

message: Hi, I work for ANSYS and see that the current article is a great start.  I have a draft here I would like to propose as a replacement for the current article.  The current article is not complete or up to date.  The proposed draft is attached here.Kelliatansys (talk) 19:32, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  suggested I break down my request for COI review into smaller pieces that are easier for an editor to review. Therefore, I would like to start by suggesting replacing everything from the Product section and below in the current article, with the proposed Products section in the draft. This is just a few paragraphs of content to look at and I believe would help address the advert tag at the top by removing a list of products and availability info.

message: I am the Content Marketing Manager at Ansys. I would like to share some proposed edits indicated in bold (for additions) and strikeout (for trims)  here for review by an independent editor. These changes:

* Clarify descriptions of our software that only really described our flagship product.
* Provides other updates and copyedits, such as adding our latest release.

thread_title:  50 workplaces for innovators 

message: Hi. I work in marketing at Ansys. I've been asked to propose some changes to our page that would focus more on recent events and history and less on dated, historical information. The changes I'd like to request are shown here with additions in bold and deleted content in strikeout. These changes would:
* Add a Corporate Social Responsibility section 
* Remove the excessively detailed product history
* Add more Recent history such as being named a "winning" company for female representation on the board
* Rework the introduction to better explain how Ansys software is used and highlight some of the bigger acquisitions
* Different section names
* Other changes
If you have any questions or if there is anything I can help with, please let me know. Rwilkin1124 (talk) 19:19, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  your proposed changes are too promotional. For example: your proposed lead,  sounds more like a press-release than a neutral encyclopedia entry; you want to remove the history section, but you don't explain why; and the "Corporate Social Responsibility" section is unsourced, and again, sounds more like a press-release. However, I would like to thank you for making this request through the correct procedure, and declaring your conflict of interest! But I would suggest you make a few, smaller proposals that are well-sourced, and you explain why you think each change should be made, for example, in the format of: "In section X, change Y to Z, and here is the source: - this is because Z is more up-to-date than Y." If you need any more help, check the links on your user talk page, look at this page, or visit the help desk.  Seagull123  Φ  14:29, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed changes to Ansys Wikipedia page 

message: In 1996, Ansys released the DesignSpace structural analysis software, the LS-DYNA crash and drop test simulation product, and the Ansys Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulator.
In 1996 LS-Dyna was a LSTC product and LSTC was aquired by ANSYS in 2019.
(see https://www.ansys.com/de-de/news-center/press-releases/09-11-19-ansys-and-ls-dyna-sign-definitive-acquisition-agreement )
Thus in 1996 it was not an ANSYS product and this sentence is suggestive that this is the case.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:C1:1704:5400:4F33:88F:21A:D52A (talk) 16:33, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Broken reference link 

message: Hello! Per my discussion with LizardJr8, I’ve closed my edit request, which was addressed to Lizard, and I'm reopening it for the community.
Here's the paragraph I'm concerned about:
 In November 2020, South China Morning Post reported that Ansys software had been used for Chinese military research in the development of hypersonic missile technology. In October 2022, Washington Post reviewed procurement documents and confirmed that Ansys technology had been acquired by seven Chinese entities present on either the export blacklist or with known links to Chinese missile technology.
This paragraph doesn't include Ansys's response, so it seems to violate WP:BALANCE. Fortunately, this can be fixed with a single sentence:
 Ansys said that it and its subsidiaries “have no records of the indicated sales or shipments.”
If you'd prefer a fuller explanation, may I suggest a second sentence, after the one I just proposed?
 Ansys suggested that software piracy may have been involved; the Post indicated that resellers may have sold the software to the unauthorized entities.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Thank you very much for your consideration.
Signed,

thread_title:  Violation of WP:BALANCE? 

message: Hi there,
On April 12, Sjkelly removed two things from the infobox: That Ansys is a member of the Nasdaq 100 and the S&P 500.
Sjkelly's edit summary — "Add ticker" — seems to be the opposite of what they did. And since Ansys is very much a member of both the Nasdaq 100 and the S&P 500, I'd like to request that this edit be reverted.
Thank you.

thread_title:  Odd Edits to "Traded As" Line in Infobox 

message: Hi all, 
Any chance we can update the "website" link in the infobox from http://ansys.com/ to https://ansys.com/ — i.e., add the "s"?
Even though this seems to be an "uncontroversial" edit, given my conflict of interest, I'd prefer that an independent editor review it first.
Thank you.
