This article is part of History of private equity and venture capital

... in the 21st century? edit

Shouldn't it be "Private equity in the 2000s", because I don't think this article will tell how private equity will be in 2087, does it? --bender235 (talk) 15:06, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Unsubstantiated Source edit

I can't make the edit myself, but it should be noted that footnote 16 leads to a link that makes to reference to the material mentioned in the article. Harbourvest (talk) 15:09, 26 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Plagiarized content edit

First, I saw that this entire section, Bursting the Internet Bubble and the private equity crash (2000–2003), was lifted from a self-published book that I added. I also labeled it for a better source. Then, I saw both that section of content and the one that follows are published in "Venture Capital - The Indian Scenario", a work by Dr. A. Amruth Prasad Reddy and Dr. M. Venkata Subbaiah, published by a "Department of Management Studies and Research Report submitted by: Tirpude College of Social Work" http://docshare01.docshare.tips/files/5908/59087761.pdf. I guess it should all be deleted, but I don't think I have the expertise to properly rewrite this article. The plagiarized content looks to have been added from the start of the article, 10 years ago, by a long-term user https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Private_equity_in_the_2000s&diff=957622349&oldid=228862129#Bursting_the_Internet_Bubble_and_the_private_equity_crash_(2000%E2%80%932003) now on hiatus.

FYI: Found the original 2006 publication source.[1] (PDF above shows full article.) 74.72.151.212 (talk) 20:24, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
I am going to take exception to this. Please note that the paper you cited was not published in 2006 it was published in June 2016. And while I have no interest in causing issues for the authors of the paper (Who cited Wikipedia as a source in their Bibliography) it was my original text that was the ORIGINAL text and it was the paper you cited that is plagiarizing my writing. While I am not active on Wikipedia anymore I thought it was important to clear up the record. |► ϋrбanяeneωaℓTALK ◄| 19:30, 19 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

The report cites Wikipedia, so it's just a source that has reprinted a paragraph from Wikipedia, probably a 2006 version of the History section of the Private Equity article. 213.98.143.214 (talk) 22:39, 4 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
