I've been editing Wikipedia long enough to have noticed a distinct lack of CVE related articles until they are given a proper name, e.g. CVE-2014-0160, better known as HeartBleed. Would we need anything different from the standard WP:GNG? Could we try writing a WP:SNG? guninvalid (talk) 17:35, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The internal compass that I typically use is that the vast majority of individual CVEs are not-notable unless they have spurred extensive coverage in non-technical/technical mainstream sources. (Think heartbleed, zenbleed etc) If you do want to write about vulnerabilities, find a few (i.e > 1) research papers about it and write about a exploit class instead of a singular exploit/CVE.

Hi, I’m working on a draft article about Rob T. Lee, a cybersecurity expert specializing in digital forensics and incident response. I would greatly appreciate any feedback on how to improve the article, especially in terms of technical accuracy or notability. Here's the draft: Draft:Rob T. Lee. Thank you!

Suricata (software) looks like it would never have passed WP:AfC or WP:AfD. It would be greatly appreciated if interested editors would help to improve the article. guninvalid (talk) 16:19, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi everyone,

I've started working on a draft for cybersecurity expert Dancho Danchev Draft:Dancho Danchev who is very well known in the cybersecurity field and is very respected in the field. I have also published all of his news media references and mentions here Draft talk:Dancho Danchev and I wanted to get some feedback on my current article and how I can improve and make it stick to Wikipedia guidelines and objective article creation practices and I believe that the article will fall in the Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer security category in Wikipedia.
