Hello! I've been quietly contributing to Wikipedia for several years, making small edits. However, I want to make a bigger contribution. I work at Draft:Pattern Inc., which has recently gone public. As someone who is a proud Utahn, born and raised, I think it's exciting to have another big tech company 'make it' in our state! While not everyone may agree on how exciting an IPO is, Pattern has received significant media coverage as it has gone public. While of course a good chunk of this is meaningless press releases and auto-generated stock market articles that don't qualify according to WP:NORG, there are several articles that appear to pass criteria and contribute to making Pattern notable.

I've gone ahead and marked myself with a COI on the talk page of the draft. I nuked some of the stuff the original author had (another employee) as it was biased, including a bunch of 'Top 50 rising companies' type citations. I added back in some new citations that seem to pass the bar for non-trivial, coming from either journalism research sites, national news sites, or regional news sites. There are more articles I can likely cite, but I'm taking the time to sift through the garbage of many 'trivial' sources that wouldn't qualify for Wikipedia.

I would greatly appreciate any help, feedback, tips, or recommendations for the creation process. I have not been asked or paid to create this page by my WP:BOSS, just doing it because I like Wikipedia. Thanks! 17jmumford (talk) 05:45, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

Hello, WikiProject Utah. I recently compiled an exhaustive list of Wikipedia pages pertaining to United States gubernatorial elections which need tables detailing general election voting statistics by county. If anyone wants to help out with this task of adding stat tables, I'd gladly welcome the assistance. Here is the Utah list, and all 49 other states have their own likewise lists on that page. Thank you. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 22:14, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
