FInal CLosing Price?

Can anyone provide me with the final closing price for VRTS before it merged? Paul, in Saudi (talk) 10:56, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Probably your broker can. Not a job for WIkipedia. W Nowicki (talk) 23:01, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Triggered by \bcbronline\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 15:52, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 00:12, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger

I'm not entirely sure what's gone on here. The Veritas Software article has been merged into this article about the new company, when really Veritas Technologies is its own distinct legal entity. Anthony Appleyard, could you revert your history merge so that we can start to sort this out? Thank you. Cloudbound (talk) 17:20, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Anthony Appleyard, I'm sure you've seen this message, but would you prefer me to contact another admin for help instead? Cloudbound (talk) 00:31, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Cloudbound: The history of events is:-
- 18:10, 10 February 2016‎ :: User:ClueBot (a bot) edited what is now Veritas Technologies "Reverting possible vandalism by 82.24.152.145 to version by Wikid77. Report False Positive? Thanks, ClueBot NG."; that edit by User:Wikid77 is now at 00:58, 4 January 2016‎ in Veritas Software.
- 30 June 2016 :: this edit-compare :: User:Udit96rc edited Veritas Software and moved it to Veritas Technologies LLC, including "Changed the name to the official and legal name".
- 00:31, 4 September 2016‎ :: User:Little Will put a {{histmerge}} request template in Veritas Technologies LLC asking for Veritas Technologies to be history-merged in and the merged page to be left at Veritas Technologies.
- 06:14, 4 September 2016 (UTC) :: Wikipedia:Requests for history merge/Archive 26#Completed requests September 2016 :: I obeyed that request.
- 18:57, 14 September 2016 (UTC) :: User talk:Anthony Appleyard/2016/July-September#Veritas Technologies :: User:Cloudbound asked me in my user talk page to history-split Veritas Software from Veritas Technologies.
- 21:37, 14 September 2016 (UTC) :: I obeyed that request.
  - Please, what do you want me to do with which edits of what pages? (Some people seem to have thought that the firm Veritas Technologies is a continuation of the firm Veritas Software under another name.) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:10, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
In Veritas Technologies's history, the alternation of page length in bytes between the 2000-range and the 9000-range seems to be the result of editing, not the result of a history-merge of WP:Parallel histories, and this length variation does not seem to correlate with the name that the article uses for the firm. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:51, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply. I hope you weren't ignoring me. I've been trying to work out exactly what has happened here. As there seems no need for another history merge, I'll have a go at fixing it through editing. To be honest, I saw all those history merges and thought the worst. Thanks for your help.

Mark Leslie?

I noticed that Mark Leslie isn't mentioned in the article but in his bio, he's listed as a co-founder of Veritas. Jamescham (talk) 15:47, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
