• curprev 00:4600:46, 5 March 2026 Mesocarp talk contribs 4,113 bytes +939 Add a comment to the top of the page source warning COI editors about the relevant policies and guidelines, since this page seems to get more COI edits than otherwise; maybe an editnotice would ultimately be better, but let's see if this helps since it's straightforward undo

• curprev 23:5323:53, 4 March 2026 Mesocarp talk contribs 3,165 bytes +628 This Forbes article was the best I could find re use in other kinds of data centers (including "AI"); it's honestly not the most reputable /either/ and if someone called it a "glorified blog post" I don't know if I would really object very stringently, but at least it's from a major publisher, the writing is nonpartisan and reads as if it's genuinely trying to inform and not push an agenda, and I think it supports the limited claim I'm making from it here undo
