There is more information about Moonpig and its founder in a profile just published in The Times[1]. I've not added it myself as I work for a firm who works with Moonpig, but may be useful material for someone else to work in to the main piece? --Markpackuk (talk) 15:27, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
Earlier this year Moonpig opened a US operation, e.g. http://www.licensing.biz/news/5373/Over-the-Moons-Pip-heads-to-the-US, which I think is worth adding to the page? (As before, I work for a firm who works with Moonpig so I've not made a change directly myself). --Markpackuk (talk) 10:28, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
This article notes that Moonpig is owned by Photobox Group not Photobox as that is a different brand. I'm sharing this with the idea that someone may be able to make corrections as I wouldn't be able to since it is COI on my end.[1] AliCharBar (talk) 18:39, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
This article notes that Moonpig was founded in 2000. Could someone edit the founded date to reflect this as there is an error message currently showing up. I can't as it would be a COI. [2] AliCharBar (talk) 18:43, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
Number of customers
The article originally said "As of Summer 2009, the company had 2.57 million customers"; I changed this to "By Summer 2009, the company had had 2.57 million customers" and User:DMacks dropped the second "had", although I'd put it there intentionally - I can't access the Times article, but I assumed the statement was saying that when Moonpig counted all the customers they'd had between founding the company and summer 2009, they counted 2.57 million; that it was the old web stats chestnut of "we have 2.5 million customers" just meaning "our database has 2.5 million user logins stored", not that there are 2.5 million people out there who are all regular customers.
It might be clearer just to use the "nearly six million cards shipped" stat from the lede here. --McGeddon (talk) 15:47, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
- Ah, now I see the "had had" intent, and I agree with the likely uselessness of the data and possible replacement text. Feel free to update (NB, I also tweaked some formatting, just just removed the second had). DMacks (talk) 16:45, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
