message: :Image:Corning Logo 7 3.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Confused by the claim that Corning maintains its headquarters in NYC. The world headquarters is very much still Corning, NY. Corning may have some facilities in NYC, but this seems to be tacked on by a misinformed editor. --Johnmalc (talk) 14:10, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

message: While i think this product deserves a write up of this size, it also dwarfs the article on corning, making this a case of undue weight and recentism. i recommend that this be spun off as its own article immediately, until the time that the corning article is expanded.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 20:58, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I have created a new article for Gorilla Glass and linked there. It was formerly a redirect to this page. Veritycheck (talk) 13:45, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

text: Thanks for that catch, 74.131.29.143.  Normally i'd encourage you (or anyone) to correct it ~ something as simple as that can be fixed on sight by anyone, but in this particular case the error occurs in a direct quote, so we need to determine whether the mistake is ours (a misquote) or the source's (in which case we'll mark it with sic).  Oddly, the Gorilla glass article has the city correctly as Harrodsburg, referenced to the same source.  I don't have immediate access to the source, but will try to discover which is the situation and act accordingly. Cheers, LindsayHello 10:43, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

message: The Corning 2008 Annual Report refers to Pyrex as one of its "three primary brands" on page 10
and lists it as one of its "principal trademarks" on page 13 http://www.corning.com/investor_relations/financial_reports/2008_annual_report.aspx However, Corning did divest itself of consumer businesses in 1998 including the Corelle, CorningWare, and Pyrex cookware lines now made by World Kitchen LLC.(taken from Wikipedia:CorningWare, Wikipedia:Pyrex, and Wikipedia:World Kitchen.) But Pyrex laboratory equipment is still produced by Corning's Life Sciences segment (2008 Annual Report, p10).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.174.225.214 (talk) 09:43, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: In here, it says "Corning invented and produced Pyrex". I doubt that statement. If you consider Pyrex to be a brand, then of course Corning invented and produced it, but that is trivial. Volkswagen "invented and produced" the Golf, Toyota "invented and produced" the Corolla. Of course. Or you consider Pyrex to be a synonym for borosilicate glass, then the statement is wrong since it was invented by Schott many years before Corning started Pyrex (this is completely undisputed, read Wikipedia on Pyrex). Whichever interpretation of Pyrex you prefer (using it as meaning borosilicate glass is sloppy and contradicted by the fact that many products sold as Pyrex are not made of borosilicate glass), the statement is nonsense. It is true that Pyrex is a well-known brand started by Corning, but that is something different.--146.227.239.9 (talk) 13:42, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

message: It may be worth looking at and discussing the points brought up in the Democrat & Chronicle piece "Online Information About Corning Riddled With Errors." --Philgomes (talk) 17:40, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: That Democrat & Chronicle  article is (at least today, 13 May) a dead link.  User:Philgomes, d'you have it, can you give an idea of what it said?  I've read our article briefly this morning, and spent more time with it in the past, and don't see anything strikingly & obviously incorrect, but i am known to be human and therefore prone to error and easily capable of missing things.

message: Hi, I've proposed some additions to Dow Corning on the article's Talk page, here. I'm not editing directly because I have a COI (I work for a communications firm that represents Dow Corning), but I wanted to give a heads up here in case anyone watching this page would be interested in taking a look. I'd be grateful for any feedback. Thank you! Mary Gaulke (talk) 14:24, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
