Comments
- Suggest we try editting the lede above to an improved version. If you are participating here be aware you maynot get attribution for your suggestions in the final article,Djm-leighpark (talk) 08:42, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- I am probably sounding too much like a marketing person with use of the word "popular" ( Ccraft us ); Does the market share reference even belong in the lead? ( Ccraft us )
- I think it's best to stay out the market share thing ... it applies actually only at a specific date (and it may even be SQL Server now has a bigger impact now being available on linux?). I removed the marrked share line. Djm-leighpark (talk) 23:12, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
- Cutting out the multi-model reference. The lede is generally not meant to have references but should be supported by the article body which should have the references. To be totally strict the multi-model claim needs to be supported by an independent source.
- I am thinking of a neat way of trying to say where people say 'Oracle' or 'Oracle DBMS' they are usually referring to this product, despite the fact Oracle also has stewardship of over 5 other databases! I've gone back to saying Simply Oracle.Djm-leighpark (talk) 00:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
- I've tried a rewrite .. this cures some things and introduces others.Djm-leighpark (talk) 00:02, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
