Comment from a developer

By the way, I was Worlds Chat’s designer, so do feel free to ask any questions for clarification. I simply had to update the entry, since there were a number of egregious omissions and errors. (For example, it surprises me that there’s no mention of Dave Marvit, co-founder of Worlds, who was a huge supporter of the Chat project. In contrast, I can count the number of times I met with Dave Gobel on one hand.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scampercom (talk • contribs) 02:59, 24 February 2011‎

Comment from another developer

I was the lead on the protocol team, and Bo (Scampercom)'s got the article just about right. Also correct IMHO on the minimal involvment of Dave Gobel and the key role of Dave Marvit — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitra.ardron (talk • contribs) 08:54 PST, 31 May 2013‎

Comment from a user

I believe this page should not be up for deletion, since the content of it matches the related webpages and references of the project. I also personally used the software recently and the servers were still up and running (2018). It needs to be included in the metaverse wikipedia page as well as the virtual world wikipedia page in the historical sections. It also needs some referencing to actual media content like some of the youtube videos that are still online about media outlets covering the software back then. Can someone with a username revert the changes that the bot reverts back because I am not a logged in user? I am referencing the article to other articles and two videos one of which is taken from the news and the bot keeps reverting my changes just because I am an anonymous contributor. This article needs referencing to other articles.

Possible article COI and NPOV issues.

Hello, This article is very old by now but appears to have been influenced or edited by people involved with the project and lacks reliable citations, as per prior anon comment above (please sign your talk page edits even if you are logged out...). They are correct that the article probably makes WP:GNG but needs cross referencing and that there are issues with some of the sources. I do not think this should be deleted but probably expanded by someone with better knowledge of it than I have. The company itself appears to be a patent mill which makes me concerned about Covert Advertising...can't find the policy page for that right now. I am inserting the COI warning template here just in case, and adding a notice to the page.

Individuals with a conflict of interest, particularly those representing the subject of the article, are strongly advised not to directly edit the article. See Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. You may request corrections or suggest content here on the Talk page for independent editors to review, or contact us if the issue is urgent.

What have they done since the 1990s?

The Worlds.com site claims they are doing something new with cryptocurrency and NFTs, but the actual site content and downloads are still very much 1990s material, as far as I can tell. Equinox ◑ 04:27, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment on ðe article's contents

Considering ðat ðe alleged cult activity wiðin ðe game's almost certainly what made worlds.com regain relevance, and is talked about quite a bit on YouTube (For example, ðe video made by Nexpo titled 'Cult in a Dead MMO'), I'm surprised it's not given even a passsing mention. -jan Eten Jan Eten (talk) 01:06, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
