Do you think that BLOCKS should have a Wikipedia page ?

If yes, what should it's title be ? "ChooseBlocks", "BLOCKS" or something else ?

I would suggest "Blocks" as the title, if the page would be for the watch itself; otherwise, the company name world be more appropriate.

Well, I believe everything in general should have a page on Wiki. That's what encyclopedias are for, isn't it? Someone with some experience should take some time to write one, but only after BLOCKS has been released. Wikipedia is very strict about actual facts and sources, so any info on a smartwatch that doesn't exist yet as a retail product would be flagged as speculation or such IMHO.

When Blocks succeeds releasing their product, I'm sure they'll get their wikipedia page, or at least someone takes effort making one.
For that time, I'm sure it won't be on yet.

When you ran into a problem, don't give up.
Most of the time a nice workaround will help you further.

I think you are right, we should wait for the BLOCKS public launch before creating a wikipedia page.

I researched other smartwatches wiki pages and I believe that the title for BLOCKS wikipedia page should be "BLOCKS (watch)" as it is for Pebble

Yes, once we have shipped the first round, we can start building the wiki page together!

That's a great plan
