The article appears to be nothing more than an advertisement for the company. There isn't a single reference from a news organization. It's all from the company's website or news releases from the company. In the case of the major contributors to the article, users Karolis, IPVideoblogger and Mattlee217, their only contributions to wikipedia have been to this article. I'm wondering if it is a candidate for deletion. BashBrannigan ( talk) 04:05, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 5 external links on KIT Digital. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

A page about a defunct company called Kit Digital has been renamed by a Wikipedian to Piksel. I work on behalf of Piksel and we believe this was a an error and would like to suggest some minor edits and undoing the name change. Originally I was recommended to do this on my Talk page, but other more experienced Wikipedians said the right way is to put our suggestion article on this Talk page.
As background, Kit Digital went bankrupt in 2013. The Piksel Group was formed out of the companies that previously made up parts of KIT Digital to create a standalone company under a new management team and board of directors. We think that the renaming of the page to Piksel is misleading as they are completely different businesses. The Kit Digital employee who previously contributed to the original article does not work for Piksel.
However, we recognise that the community may argue that the events leading up to Kit Digital's bankruptcy are in the public interest, so we are not in a position to objectively suggest changes to these elements.
In summary, we suggest:
Below you'll find our suggested edited version and the current Piksel article underneath our suggested one. To be honest, the article needs lots more, but it's not something we can go further within given our conflict of interests.
We would appreciate feedback and a reviewer making the changes directly for us. Thanks to any users' input into this.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Pj520M ( talk • contribs) 02:38, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
For the record, another copy of the requested changes was at User:Phil at Piksel/sandbox, but I am blanking that now as WP:COPYARTICLE. – Fayenatic London 12:57, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. The reviewer would like to request the editor with a COI attempt to discuss with editors engaged in the subject-area first. |

Specifically we suggest the following edits:
If it helps, I have made specific edited changes before, if you look at my suggested amends in the history of this Talk page, on 28th March 2018.
There is a case for deleting the page altogether, but we have too much of a COI, so will leave this to more experienced people to discuss! Pj520M ( talk) 15:21, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
As this request goes beyond the normal actions of editing an article and involves questions over the possibility of a page being fundamentally altered without merit, you should first direct your concerns to the editor who made the name change, UnitedStatesian, by asking them to clarify why those changes were made. That editor at first glance appears to be an active and conscientious one, so in the unlikely event that they are unable to assist you, please let me know. I make these suggestions because what your dealing with is one of either two possibilities:
I believe that any changes I could make to an article in response to a COI edit request without the COI editor first trying the two possibilities listed above, might prove futile, which is why I ask that they try at least the first option. If this doesn't work, please let me know here or on my talk page. Thank you SPINTENDO 16:46, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
References to the “Company” as used below shall mean KIT digital, Inc. prior to the Effective Date and Piksel, Inc. on and after the Effective Date.. The article cited by Pj520M also makes this clear:
KIT Digital's dark days may well be behind it: The company officially relaunches today as Piksel. The company that attracted a lot of attention -- first for an aggressive campaign of acquiring online video companies, then for cash shortfalls and financial improprieties -- has emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy leaner and more focused..
