Talk:Open Source Security Foundation

Paid editing
In full disclosure, I made this edit earlier to this page as a paid editor, which updated outdated information and added information about the OSSF's current activities -- https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Open_Source_Security_Foundation&diff=prev&oldid=1156569581. I believe all content I added was WP:NPOV but can someone else review it (perhaps @Graywalls) to ensure this is the case? Llightex (talk) 13:23, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I have looked over it. As I believe you now know, in the future you may propose changes on talk pages, but should not directly edit the page. Pabsoluterince (talk) 13:46, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Will do. Llightex (talk) 14:17, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Edit request - update policy

 * Specific text to be added or removed: I'd request updating "Policy" section with recent events, for example the following:

The White House held a meeting on software security with government and private sector stakeholders on January 13, 2022. In May 2022, the OpenSSF hosted a follow-up meeting, the Open Source Software Security Summit II, where participants from industry agreed on a 10-point Open Source Software Security Mobilization Plan, which received $30 million in funding commitments. In August 2023, the OpenSSF served as an advisor for DARPA's AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC), a competition around innovation around AI and cybersecurity. In September 2023, the OpenSSF hosted the Secure Open Source Software Summit with the White House, where government agencies and companies discussed security challenges and initiatives around open source software.

 * Reason for the change: Includes relevant recent events around policy and the OpenSSF
 * References supporting change: See references in text above (cyberscoop, axios, DARPA)

Two of the proposed sentences have multiple references attached to their text. This suggests that in these two cases, both references verify all of the information in those sentences. If that is the case, kindly consolidate those references so that only one verifies the proposed text, and submit that new edit request with the corrected references below this reply post at your earliest convenience. (See WP:TOOMANYREFS, WP:INTEGRITY.) Regards, Spintendo  20:11, 27 September 2023 (UTC)


 * @Spintendo sure thing, just updated the ref. Note that the first two sentences already exist in the article, so I'm only proposing adding the following two sentences to the end of that paragraph:
 * In August 2023, the OpenSSF served as an advisor for DARPA's AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC), a competition around innovation around AI and cybersecurity. In September 2023, the OpenSSF hosted the Secure Open Source Software Summit with the White House, where government agencies and companies discussed security challenges and initiatives around open source software.
 * Let me know if this works. Llightex (talk) 20:26, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi, this is a follow up to my previous edit request. I have made the changes requested above and would like to request another review. Thanks!
