Talk:Eugene Kaspersky

message: Removed the phrase "Eugene is a member of the Computer Anti-virus Researchers' Organization (CARO), the global association of leading anti-virus experts. " from the text as Eugene Kaspersky is not a member of CARO anymore.
Some people tend to think Eugene is a Communist.  These people are known as correct people.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxis ftmfw (talk • contribs) 00:47, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: File:Eugene Kaspersky.jpg Nominated for speedy Deletion

message: My name is Aliya Tuktarova, and I'm working in corporate communications at Kaspersky Lab. I have corrected one spelling mistake and added a new definition.
1. I changed Kaspersky Labs to Kaspersky Lab as only the latter spelling is right. 
2. Changed the general company definition to "Kaspersky Lab is a developer of secure content & threat management systems and the world’s largest privately held vendor of software security products" - this definition is used in all the official company communications and gives more precise wording of the company occupation.  
I will be happy to discuss these changes with you!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aliya Tuktarova (talk • contribs) 13:20, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Two changes made to the article 

message: I have added the information about the Wired's article about Eugene Kaspersky into a proper section, along with Eugene's own counter-response to this article (where he discusses several errors and omissions from that article), in as "neutral" way as it is possible. If you have additional information related to it - obviously feel free to add it, just don't try to add the redundant "fluff" text to it or any irrelevant sources which are not directly related to Kaspersky himself (for example the information about "Flame" virus - keep this information in an article about Flame, not here) or your own "conspiracy theories" (for example about this Wired article being "published with just a few months left until the U.S. Presidential elections" or similar nonsense).98.113.47.15 (talk) 07:54, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Wired article about Eugene 

message: This article basically reads like a puff piece. I'd also advise checking just how many company employees have been responsible for editing it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.59.139.64 (talk) 06:58, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Concur seems to lack NPOV. The wired article discussion is a great example. Wired pointed out his KGB and Soviet ties, there is zero mention that he was a Soviet Intelligence Officer on this article or concerns about his ties to the Russian Government.--0pen$0urce (talk) 22:03, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  NPOV? 

message: The tone seems to lack neutrality and balance. Mainly positives. No mention of tenure as former Soviet Intelligence Officer or ties to Putin, which are all publicized criticisms (Wired). Plus the tone of the article seems to lack neutrality.Lets discuss and find some encyclopedic balance. --0pen$0urce (talk) 22:09, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: FYI  I rewrote some sections. I didn't think it was over-the-top promotional, just sort of eager-to-please/flattering. I hope it's more neutral. It fully mentions that he went to what was at the time a KGB academy, and also includes the reference to the Wired article alleging his shady connections to the Russian government etc. Per WP:BLP, I don't think there is anything to elaborate there at this point - he's not been arrested for any crimes or had his assets frozen or anything else substantive.

thread_title:  POC Check 

message: The article currently states :-
In March 2015, Bloomberg accused Kaspersky to have close ties to Russian military and intelligence officials.[49] Kaspersky slammed the claims in his blog, calling the coverage "sensationalist" and guilty of "exploiting paranoia" to "increase readership," but did not reffer clearly whether these claims are true or not.[50]
In the blog EK specifically called the allegations false. AnnaComnemna (talk) 15:29, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Storage

message: The New York Times recently did an in-depth profile on Eugene Kaspersky. For the most part it's very similar to what we have here and I merely used it to supplement pre-existing content or add small details. At the very bottom of the article it says "Photography is a favorite pastime of his, and he was thrilled when the magazine GQ Russia recently recommended his Instagram account as “enticing and not banal.” I was hoping for another editor's opinion on whether we should add his Instagram as an External Link. Typically we do not include social media profiles, unless the sources discuss them and I am not familiar with how much emphasis we expect in the source to justify an external link.

replies: text: I would say it should not be added as an external link but may be we can mention the hobby with a reference to NYT and there reference the Instagram?--Ymblanter (talk) 14:40, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
