Article Expansion

[edit]

Personally, I believe that we need to begin adding the services Yandex offers, and make it more comparable to the Yandex wiki, as Yandex is probably the closest thing to it. Yandex.Disk, etc. The services offered in English and the services offered in Russian too.

Claims

[edit]

Really, the claim is just too weak now: "however, after studying Mr. Putin's responses is did seem that the President did have access to the questions before the interview took place". I don't know how was it with BBC questions, but Yandex did the following: it proposed you to ask a question; then your question appeared in one of thematical groups. You could vote for any question, and it was claimed that the most popular questions would be asked to the president. All questions and votes for them were always freely available on the Internet.

My personal opinion is that the president spoke about those things, which he would like to speak about.

If you want to know how the conference was regarded by the russian internet-community, please, see the article in Russian. Especially,

Был маленький шанс, что эта пресс-конференция породит новый формат общения власти с народом, формат, как нам кажется, несколько более продвинутый, чем телеинтервью. Все-таки интернет предоставляет немного больше возможностей, которые можно использовать не только для дуракаваляния. Однако не получилось. Интернет так и остался ни при чем, со всей своей "молодежной средой" с "большим кругозором". С таким же успехом можно было собирать вопросы по телефону, а отвечать в эфире Первого канала. Жаль.

History - citation needed?

[edit]

I'm not sure if this constitutes a citation, and I've never got around to figuring out the markup for citations, but http://company.yandex.com/special_projects/internet_search_competitions.xml is a live page as I write. --Nyelvmark (talk) 17:54, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Competition

[edit]

I really dislike this notion: The closest competitors of Yandex in the Russian market are Rambler and Mail.ru. Although services like Google and Yahoo! are also used by Russian users and have Russian-language interfaces, Google has about 22.6% of search engine generated traffic, whereas Russian sites (including Yandex) have around 56.9%. According to different sources, the only competitors of Yandex in Russia are Google and Mail.ru. All other search engines are virtually defunct and unused. Artem-S-Tashkinov (talk) 16:17, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

These competitors are internet conglomerates of sorts, not pure search engines... they place other services, from webmail and news and integrated classic internet article content, to Web 2.0 stuff, social networks, dating sites, etc., far closer up in the foreground than Google. While Google might be known to Joe Average for 4 things - the search engine, googlemaps, gmail, and android (likely in that order) - and dominates the field across the board while flopping or never reaching mass audiences in dozens of other abortive or lingering endeavors, the RUnet is highly competitive, with each big company holding a variety of prime virtual real estate. Users are very likely to prefer Yandex for search and maps, recognize mail.ru as the definitive place to go for webmail and thereby get exposed to its photosharing or dating or online car sales services, but at the same time go to rambler for news or something. Most people end up with accounts with two or more of them, a daily social networking experience with VK, and a few sometimes-used legacy accounts in pre-integration services used by several of the conglomerates. 208.127.80.210 (talk) 11:01, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Baidu? It does not work correctly, for example about image search even does not work at all! Why Yandex is ranked after Baidu? Yahoo? It's not really a powerful search engine, For example has not a big database, and has not "search by image" system, and has weak AI algorithms, and even technical mistakes in search algorithm, and has discrimination in search results. Bing? With its weak search in images, for example? with its weak AI and small database? Even Google has reduced its own database at 2022 and now is smaller than Yandex (is google half-bankrupted?!) and also in about 2020, Google began to imitate yandex about the algorithm of "disagreement to user's wishes" in search (but this is the weakness point of Yandex! why google has imitated yandex? does Google worship Yandex?) And google has weaker AI than Yandex in searches. Yandex has developed and improved significantly in recent years, but google has retrogression in its work, And yahoo, bing & baidu have not enough grown. Are these words my personal vision? Yes! but based on my testing and measurements. But that ranking in the article is author's personal vision too, not a fair judgment. Prof~fawiki (talk) 03:54, 20 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

True meaning of the name and other helpful info

[edit]

Yura87 (talk) 08:05, 1 December 2011 (UTC) However, the pun with "Я" and "I" is the true meaning, as the name was often written as Яndex, not Яндекс. This is also emphasized by a social network's name "Ya.ru" and the "Я" being red. When banning a user on @ya.ru, @yandex.ru or @narod.ru, best bet is to ban all of those aliases together, along with the same username on Yandex's openID. The URL of one's "profile" on Ya.ru is also their openID URL.[reply]

Edit request: Ilya Segalovich is no longer CTO

[edit]

Ilya Segalovich died in 2013 (as stated in his own article), and is thus no longer the CTO of Yandex. Therefore, I request that:

1. the following text be removed from the infobox:

Ilya Segalovich, CTO

2. below the photo of Segalovich in the “History” section, the following text:

Ilya Segalovich, CTO of Yandex

be replaced with:

Ilya Segalovich, former CTO of Yandex

--Vasiliy Faronov (talk) 17:13, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done. If just all requests were this clear. Thanks, Vasiliy. Best, Sam Sailor Sing 19:12, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request: monetization updates in 2013

[edit]

I request that the following be added in the “History” section after the paragraph starting “In March 2013...”.

Guys, please put together all the edits you want to make, rather than submitting them bit by bit. Thank you. Jehochman Talk 10:04, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Jehochman: We don’t really have a set of edits ready to be applied. We’re seeing a number of things that may be improved, but not all of these may be straightforward in terms of sources and consensus. If you’re interested in improving the article, perhaps we could discuss a number of areas in a free format, get some consensus, and then post edit requests as needed? ~ Vasiliy Faronov (talk) 10:53, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have implemented the requested edit, with some minor changes (e.g. "announced plans to open" instead of "opened"). --82.136.210.153 (talk) 14:13, 15 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request: Yandex Labs closed in late 2016/early 2017

[edit]

Yandex Labs vacated their offices at 299 S California Avenue, Ste 200, Palo Alto, CA in late 2016, or early 2017. I can find no reference to this in Yandex public financial statements, the US press, or anywhere else I've looked.

Yandex Labs was a substantial undertaking, which Yandex officers promoted to investors and the press, so the radio silence around its closure is frustrating.

I'm about to update the text of the article to reflect the closed status of Yandex Labs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.172.50.82 (talk) 01:14, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
