The article states that Agarwal became CTO of Twitter in Nov 2021, which is inaccurate. He became CTO in 2017. 81.106.78.105 ( talk) 17:04, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
He has become CEO now Abheygpt1 ( talk) 17:11, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
Still, the article says that he took upon the CTO role in Oct 2018, but his LinkedIn profile says Oct 2017.

1. change "Agarwal" to "Parag Agarwal" all over page - because his full name will form a link. 2. change "doctorate" to " Director of Philosophy(PHD) - Computer Science" - link to his Linkedin Profile = https://www.linkedin.com/in/parag-agrawal-5a14742a Vinaykumaryvk ( talk) 17:23, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
I don't know how to link a picture of him, can anyone either help me or do it for me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:4B00:9E0:449C:4643:3D99:BBDF ( talk) 02:02, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Apologies if I've misunderstood the edit request process. Thought I'd mention that the article claims Agarwal held 'leadership' positions at several companies before Twitter, despite the cited article stating he held 'research internships' at these companies. I suppose it's possible that they put interns in charge of teams there, but it seems unlikely. 109.255.252.57 ( talk) 15:47, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

just like with Sundar Pichai, there is no evidence that this man is an American citizen. why does Wikipedia insist on referring to both of these individuals as "Indian American"? 2604:2D80:4080:9500:C07E:F2C2:CFA4:8234 ( talk) 22:03, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

The last two paragraphs under Views and policies on online speech are criticism of twitter and doesn't concern Parag (except that he happened to be the CEO right then). Thoughts? Murtaza.aliakbar ( talk) 17:06, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
For the most part they are his direct quotes. Considering he is CEO is views on the role of twitter are essential for any reader Viktory02 ( talk) 20:43, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

First line, change 'is' for 'was'. As of April 25 2022, he is not the CEO of Twitter anymore. Montrealpsycho ( talk) 12:04, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
The articled used as a source states he and other executives left the company. If that is enough to be called fired than many other wikis of prior CEOs to companies taken private need to be edited. Carman88 ( talk) 01:45, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

I've been reading up on this guy and found out he won the IPO in 2001. This is definitely a noteworthy achievement no? I believe somebody should add this to his article. sources: https://ipho-unofficial.org/countries/IND/individual https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/pune/indians-bag-5-medals-at-physics-olympiad/articleshow/1375985964.cms — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.208.184.145 ( talk) 02:28, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
Is it appropriate to mention that without the context of why Elon would have fired him or when other reports just state he left the company as well.
The text messages from the court case paint an extremely antagonistic relationship and that might add some clarity. As it stands now it reads in a very un objective light.
Long time wiki reader, but finally made an account because this was just bizarre in how it read Carman88 ( talk) 08:44, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
I've made the lead more neutral and less time bound by removing reference to Agrawal's 'firing'. It's referred to later on in the main body. It's routine for CEOs to leave their post in this way and the reference in the lead appeared gratuitious and not NPOV. Emmentalist ( talk) 08:34, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

Change the successor to Elon Musk.
NB all these detailed reports about executive shakeups, Musk firing people without even asking them to resign, are from anonymous "sources familiar with the matter." They have not been confirmed via the kind of SEC filings that a public company is obligated to issue as it reverts to private ownership. That's not to say that Musk wouldn't be so rash, or that he necessarily would follow securities laws given his history, just that the article might be getting ahead of what is definitely known. 67.180.143.89 ( talk) 23:18, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
