Talk:NJFX

Creating talk page for discussion. Article has been flagged as being too promotional but I'm unsure what is promotional, so will see what needs to be cut out to pass review. I've contacted the nominating editor for information.Timtempleton (talk) 15:10, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

I deleted a few items and resubmitted. Timtempleton (talk) 15:43, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Suggest WP:ADMASQ. Replicates the usual style of WP:PAID, particularly re. list of services, hence why it's high on editors' lists. Cheers, — O Fortuna ^{semper crescis, aut decrescis} 15:47, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the direct. I certainly don't want the article to be too promotional, and indeed I spend a lot of time taking spam and promotional info out of other articles. I did notice that Wikipedia is weak on data center and subsea cable info, and since millions of users are impacted with these facilities, this addresses that. How would you recommend I include this facility info without saying what it actually does? Tough line to straddle. I did take a few things out from my original article, but everything that was and is there comes from 3rd party media coverage - there are no weasel words and this isn't a personal essay.

Edit request January 2026

It's been years since this article was updated, several sources have become dead links, and the tenses aren't right. I'd like to request a few updates to make the article current, grammatically correct, and dead link free. I have a connection with the company, so won't edit myself.

• Please change the tenses in the following sentences. Textdiffs shown. These are all in the history section.

−

Tata Communications was a founding partner of NJFX.

• In the second paragraph of the history section, the capacity media source is a dead link, and the following sentence is unsourced. I found two sources for the two sentences. Since Textdiff hides the sourcves, I'll use the clumsier box code to show before and after.
  Before
  One of Tata's cables terminating in the cable landing station is the Seabras-1 undersea cable, which links North America and Brazil, with a landing point in São Paulo. Tata's TGN Atlantic subsea cable also lands in Wall Township, connecting to Highbridge, Somerset, United Kingdom.

• In the fourth paragraph of the history section, for January 2016, the Windstream project source is dead. Please replace it with this one: <ref>https://www.fierce-network.com/telecom/windstream-establishes-100g-express-route-red-hot-ashburn-va-market-via-njfx</ref> Done
• In the fifth paragraph of the history section that starts "In January 2017", both the Capacity Media and Mission Critical magazine sources are dead. I found a replacement for Capacity Media, but the additional data center project never was completed, so my next request is to change one source and remove the incorrect data center line with its broken link source. Here's the textdiff.

  −

  In January 2017, its Tier III center was completed. In March, NJFX announced they were adding an additional data center on their campus.

  +

   Done
• In the eighth paragraph, starting December 2020, the source somehow became a Chinese language link. Please change it to <ref name=submarine>{{cite web|url=https://www.submarinenetworks.com/zh/systems/trans-atlantic/havfrue |title = AEC-2 HAVFRUE|website=Submarine Networks |date= |access-date=June 8, 2021}}</ref> You only have to chaange the zh in the url to en. Done
• There are two paragraphs that can be added to the end of the history section, to update it:

In February 2024, the company's NJFX Utility Service subsidiary acquired transatlantic cable assets including bore pipes and conduits connecting to NJFX's facility, from underseas cable developer SubCom.

In December 2025, NJFX announced it was building a 10MW high-density AI data hall, to accommodate the growth in AI data demand. Expected to be completed by the end of 2026, the company claimed the hall would be the first purpose-built cable landing station campus in North America to support liquid-to-chip AI-ready infrastructure.

 Done It's a little promotional, but the claims are sourced.STEMinfo (talk) 04:31, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

• The services section has a few corrections and new sources to add for the corrections. I'm adding the 10 acre campus size and 64,000 square feet building size. I spell out that there are four cables entering the building, and 35 operators renting space onsite. The dead capacity media link is removed, and new sources are added. I show the box code so you can see the source placement, and I show textdiff below so you can see how the text changes.

This is one request but I will implement it regardless, as the last time this article was really edited was 2024, '23, '18 and '17 (especially 17). I will make minor adjustments, such as evolving those bare URLs to actual references, so give me some time. Once you reply, I'll begin.

I completed this. STEMinfo (talk) 00:54, 28 January 2026 (UTC)
