I am an employee at Geotab. The current state of the article is of a somewhat poor (tone, structure, excessive use of bullet points, irrelevant information) and we would like to provide suggested edits to help improve this article, both in terms of the quality of the writing (to make it sound more encyclopedic) and the content. We hope to propose significant changes to the content, effectively rewriting most of it. Some of the changes we hope to propose will be improving the introductory paragraph, rewriting the history section by turning it into a paragraph and keeping only important information (there is a lot of bloat currently), and making the Awards section more concise.
Would this be acceptable from a COI standpoint and if so can someone volunteer to work with us on this once we provide the suggestions?

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Note for when a new editor is assigned this: Spintendo was assisting us with this request but seems to not be active in the past couple months. I created a new topic below because I wasn't sure if I could get this back on the edit request list (not sure how it went back on that list). Once we resume this topic, we can delete the topic below. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minura at Geotab Inc ( talk • contribs) 16:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
Replace the entire current introduction section with this:
Geotab Inc. is a Canadian technology company headquartered in Oakville, Ontario. The company develops and markets telematics hardware and software used to locate, manage, and maintain vehicles and assets in real-time. [1] It provides solutions in fleet management including on-board diagnostics, electronic logging, route optimization, accident data recording and CO2 emissions reporting.
The company was founded in 2000 by Neil Cawse, the CEO of the company. [2] Geotab’s primary customers are private sector and public sector fleets who use Geotab products for the purpose of fleet management of motor vehicles. Geotab sells its products to end users primarily through a global network of third-party resellers. [3] The company’s products have over 4 million subscriptions by customers in 160 countries. [4]
Geotab’s core product lines are the Go device and MyGeotab software as a service (SaaS) platform. The Go device is a playing card pack sized device that connects to the OBD port of a motor vehicle. It transmits diagnostics and location information (obtained via a built-in GPS receiver) over standard 4G telecommunications networks in real-time. This information can then be viewed or analyzed using the MyGeotab platform. The Go device and MyGeotab platform also support integrations with third-party hardware and software to provide additional functionality.
Updating to improve quality of the article to try to make it more intelligible to any non-technical readers. Do let me know if there are any issues with the above text. Thanks!

The company develops and markets telematics hardware and software used to locate, manage, and maintain vehicles and assets in real-timeThe claim that they "maintain vehicles and assets" sounds like industry jargon which does not describe what is being done by the company. How and in what way are they "maintained"? Since maintenance can be a subjective term, the fact that these items are maintained may not be up to everyone else's description of what is or is not maintained. The word "assets" is also not very descriptive.
It provides solutionsis a phrase that I see often in edit requests. It uses company jargon (e.g., "solutions") that we don't use here on Wikipedia.
The Go device and MyGeotab platform also support integrations with third-party hardware and software to provide additional functionality."support integrations" and "additional functionality" are more examples of this non-descriptive language. What exactly is meant by "additional functionality"? Does it make ice cream? I'm taking some liberties here, but honestly, when it says "additional functionality" — but does not specify what those functionalities are — it leaves everything but the kitchen sink open to interpretation. Language like this is, at best, not informative, and at worst, sounds more like an advertisement than an encyclopedic entry. I hope this feedback helps. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to ask (and sorry about the 10-day delay in responding!). Regards, Spintendo 15:59, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

User:Spintendo has been assisting me with an COI edit suggestion but he hasn't been responding for over a month. I was recommended by the Teahouse to create a new COI request to get a new editor. This edit suggestion I had in my conversation with Spintendo is under the topic " Update request for introduction section" on the talk page. If someone could continue on this, that would be great.

Geotab. That user has an
actual or apparent
conflict of interest. The requested edits backlog is high. Please be very patient. There are currently 167 requests waiting for review. Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies. |
First, can you remove the table in "Awards and recognition"?
I have a question on what should or should not be included in the paragraphs that follow the table. Some of these are not very important and I want to know what I should keep in. The most important of these is the ABI industry research rankings in which Geotab has lead the rankings for Telematics as a whole in a number of years.
The table was created through a previous COI handled by another person. I think there was some confusion between the editor and the requester since it's not ideal to format it in this way in this context.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
Note for when a new editor is assigned this: Spintendo was assisting us with this request but seems to not be active in the past couple months. I created a new topic below because I wasn't sure if I could get this back on the edit request list (not sure how it went back on that list). Once we resume this topic, we can delete the topic below. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minura at Geotab Inc ( talk • contribs) 16:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
Replace the entire current introduction section with this:
Geotab Inc. is a Canadian technology company headquartered in Oakville, Ontario. The company develops and markets telematics hardware and software used to locate, manage, and maintain vehicles and assets in real-time. [1] It provides solutions in fleet management including on-board diagnostics, electronic logging, route optimization, accident data recording and CO2 emissions reporting.
The company was founded in 2000 by Neil Cawse, the CEO of the company. [2] Geotab’s primary customers are private sector and public sector fleets who use Geotab products for the purpose of fleet management of motor vehicles. Geotab sells its products to end users primarily through a global network of third-party resellers. [3] The company’s products have over 4 million subscriptions by customers in 160 countries. [4]
Geotab’s core product lines are the Go device and MyGeotab software as a service (SaaS) platform. The Go device is a playing card pack sized device that connects to the OBD port of a motor vehicle. It transmits diagnostics and location information (obtained via a built-in GPS receiver) over standard 4G telecommunications networks in real-time. This information can then be viewed or analyzed using the MyGeotab platform. The Go device and MyGeotab platform also support integrations with third-party hardware and software to provide additional functionality.
Updating to improve quality of the article to try to make it more intelligible to any non-technical readers. Do let me know if there are any issues with the above text. Thanks!

The company develops and markets telematics hardware and software used to locate, manage, and maintain vehicles and assets in real-timeThe claim that they "maintain vehicles and assets" sounds like industry jargon which does not describe what is being done by the company. How and in what way are they "maintained"? Since maintenance can be a subjective term, the fact that these items are maintained may not be up to everyone else's description of what is or is not maintained. The word "assets" is also not very descriptive.
It provides solutionsis a phrase that I see often in edit requests. It uses company jargon (e.g., "solutions") that we don't use here on Wikipedia.
The Go device and MyGeotab platform also support integrations with third-party hardware and software to provide additional functionality."support integrations" and "additional functionality" are more examples of this non-descriptive language. What exactly is meant by "additional functionality"? Does it make ice cream? I'm taking some liberties here, but honestly, when it says "additional functionality" — but does not specify what those functionalities are — it leaves everything but the kitchen sink open to interpretation. Language like this is, at best, not informative, and at worst, sounds more like an advertisement than an encyclopedic entry. I hope this feedback helps. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to ask (and sorry about the 10-day delay in responding!). Regards, Spintendo 15:59, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

User:Spintendo has been assisting me with an COI edit suggestion but he hasn't been responding for over a month. I was recommended by the Teahouse to create a new COI request to get a new editor. This edit suggestion I had in my conversation with Spintendo is under the topic " Update request for introduction section" on the talk page. If someone could continue on this, that would be great.

The user below has a request that an edit be made to
Geotab. That user has an
actual or apparent
conflict of interest. The requested edits backlog is high. Please be very patient. There are currently 167 requests waiting for review. Please read the instructions for the parameters used by this template for accepting and declining them, and review the request below and make the edit if it is well sourced, neutral, and follows other Wikipedia guidelines and policies. |
First, can you remove the table in "Awards and recognition"?
I have a question on what should or should not be included in the paragraphs that follow the table. Some of these are not very important and I want to know what I should keep in. The most important of these is the ABI industry research rankings in which Geotab has lead the rankings for Telematics as a whole in a number of years.
The table was created through a previous COI handled by another person. I think there was some confusion between the editor and the requester since it's not ideal to format it in this way in this context.
