[edit]

Maybe it's just me but doesn't this seem like an unnecessary article? Wix.com (as far as I know anyway) is of very little importance.)Eggbertx (talk) 23:44, 16 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

I found it useful. 94.169.126.14 (talk) 23:31, 14 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Eggbertx, what do you base this statement on? --83.232.153.146 (talk) 15:35, 7 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Didn't Wix get really bad reviews from paying customers who said they were ripped off/scammed? I dunno, might wanna research that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.181.173.229 (talk) 18:41, 12 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

page is totally useless except for being a free ad for site Alstom441 (talk) 13:27, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'm writing an article about Wix. Having a Wikipedia page on it is useful. If you don't have a use for it, that's fine but the site has 40 million users: that means, at some point, people are going to need to research it. A Wikipedia article is perfectly justified. 90.152.3.242 (talk) 10:16, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

HTML5

[edit]

Needs a better citation for the benefits to the company of switching to HTML5. That citation only verifies that the transition happened, not any mention of how it helped grow the user base. 90.152.3.242 (talk) 10:16, 26 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

What does "Wix" mean?

[edit]

What does the name of the company/site actually mean? Is it an abbreviation for something? Is it a foreign word for something? Is it a made up word that's supposed to mean something? If so, wow and why was it chosen?

It has a meaning in German, but I'm pretty sure that's _not_ intended. It would roughly translate as 'wank'. I chocked laughing when I first saw an ad for 'wank.com' 90.196.181.236 (talk) 10:22, 4 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Company versus software

[edit]

The article lede talks about Wix.com, the software platform, but the infobox is about the company. It should probably use the software infobox template, and the company should have its own article. Does anyone call the software Wix.com though, or is it usually just shortened to Wix? Timtempleton (talk) 01:55, 24 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sale or other uses of personal data collected by the sites generated by using the Wix platform

[edit]

I think that providers of website generation platforms such as this ought to include clear, unambiguous statements about what they do with the data collected by those generated sites that is fed back to them. This will provide a more comprehensive description of the purposes of the company. The information provided in the article reads like a puff piece, PR written to seem objective while dodging more pertinent and useful facts. IMHO. Dawnvawn (talk) 23:20, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

BBB Complaints

[edit]

There was a section added by 69.180.113.218 (talk · contribs) summarizing some complaints from the Better Business Bureau. I've removed the section because it seems to have a few issues, but I'd like to get others' thoughts before it becomes an edit war.

  • BBB reviews areWP:USERGENERATED, so I don't think they'd generally be considered reliable
  • The BBB doesn't summarize reviews the way the editor here did, so I believe that would be WP:ORIGINAL
  • Possibly WP:UNDUE if there isn't any news coverage of this type of complaint

Article improvements?

[edit]

Greetings! Would anybody oppose removing the "Corporate affairs" subsection title? It feels completely unnecessary.

Another thing that stands out is how the "Product development" and "Acquisitions" subsections are laid out. They're not set up with bullet points but they might as well be. We could list them as bullet points but full prose would look better in my opinion.

I'm also wondering if we should change the "Controversies" section title to something else or work relevant information into other sections per WP:CSECTION.

I'm happy to do the work, I just like to get consensus from other folks before making bigger changes.

Thanks! TXstockman5 (talk) 23:06, 16 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Rename Outreach abroad subsection?

[edit]

The section could have a better title as it speaks about the Gaza—Israel conflict and the current title obscures the contents. Perhaps "Employee advice during Gaza—Israel conflict"? ImMrCarZigzag (talk|contribs) 23:35, 6 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
