Wrong Percentages

Well, if the total of users is about 16.000.000, ~3.000.000 of USA users can't be the 67% ... Just correct your data, men!

DDoS Attack

Should the outage resulting from an on-going DDoS attack be noted in the article? Source: http://status.livejournal.org/ Retrieved 7/27/11 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.239.181.75 (talk) 14:55, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Do we have adequate third-party sources? —David Eppstein (talk) 15:34, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
Also retrieved 7-27-11 http://downrightnow.com/livejournal Probably not a sufficient source, I will wait to see if any news articles arise. News articles can also be found about a previous attack in March. Because of the frequency of attacks this year, I thought it might warrant space in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.239.181.75 (talk) 18:53, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
A sentence or two about both sets of attacks doesn't sound out of place if it can be properly sourced. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:02, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I added it under the controversy section because some of the sources accuse the Russian government or political activists of causing these attacks. Fyrebyrd (talk) 14:45, 28 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Demographics by gender badly inaccurate

In the section "Demographics by gender", either the numbers or the barchart (or both) are badly inaccurate. The barchart shows twice as many women participating as men. The numbers make the proportion much closer to parity. "Demographics by gender" lacks footnotes to the data. Someone who knows where to find the data will have to be the one to fix the problem.

Fixed per [1] - it's 55%/45%. --McGeddon (talk) 10:30, 16 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Block in China

I just checked and LJ is not blocked in China now. No sources to back this up, but I'm in China and I can load it. 222.128.101.35 (talk) 04:33, 28 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Early history - LiveJournal under Brad Fitzpatrick

Right now, the history section pretty much starts with the acquisition by Six Apart, does anyone have any good sources for the early history of LiveJournal under Brad Fitzpatrick and Danga Interactive? I haven't had any luck on Google News Search. -- Gordon Ecker, WikiSloth (talk) 07:32, 31 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
