Dear Calamites,

We noticed that you've done a lot of maintenance work on our Wikipedia page, and we were wondering if you were a developer of any sort. We would like to thank you for your time and effort that you put in.

Sincerely,

Amlogic


 * Thanks. I am not really a developer, although I do have some experience running and even writing software on ARM-based chips similar to those offered by Amlogic. I have followed the semiconductor chip market for quite some time, with a focus on chips used in PCs and consumer electronics, which originally followed from an interest in investment as well as technical interest in chips and a software background. As a result, I became familiar with market and supply chain dynamics starting from the early era of fabless semiconductor companies, as well as factors involved in chip design.


 * As can be seen on my user page, I have recently edited and expanded a number of articles on companies in this sector, in which I try to apply a historical perspective and market information that is not very commonly known and therefore often missing from articles. As an example, it not uncommon for chip company articles to focus on a few unsuccessful historical PC component products that made a company name slightly familiar with the general public, while completely omitting information about consumer electronics chips that shipped in the hundreds of millions of units and drove financial and stock market success that company, information that was often sparsely reported on (for example, in mainstream media) except for publications related to the chip design community and in investment circles.

 * Thanks for your recognition. I hope the Amlogic article will soon pass the review process. Feel free to make contributions, although to avoid conflict of interest it may be better to propose extensive changes on what will be the Talk page of the article.


 * To maintain a good a standard requires references to be provided. It would be a good addition if Amlogic's history as a major player in the digital photo frame chip market could be verified with independent references, so that this part of its history can be added to the article.

Qualcomm
Hi Calamites. I noticed you have previously collaborated with someone from Qualcomm on the Talk page and wanted to let you know I'll be working on bringing the page up to GA (eventually) on their behalf. I've started my work on it here and your input would be welcome. Generally I do not edit articles where I have a COI, but offer content and leave decisions up to disinterested editors (see my user page). CorporateM (Talk) 15:23, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
