Talk:Nebius Group#requestedit

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi, below please find a suggested new draft of this page, updated for accuracy and relevance. The current article conflates Yandex and Nebius, and they are two separate companies. This proposed version below focuses entirely on Nebius as its own entity, and I have included more reliable sourcing:

 Comment: Some of the language in this draft sounds somewhat promotional. Encoded Talk 💬 15:47, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Encoded, thank you for looking this over. I tweaked some of the language based on your comment, and I'd appreciate you reviewing it again. I am happy for more feedback and further collaboration. Thanks Wikigracht (talk) 09:17, 10 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Encoded, I noticed that you're busy these days. After taking your feedback into account and seeing that there is no pushback on my suggestions, I made the changes. I'm open to further discussion. Thanks Wikigracht (talk) 16:00, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that a clarification is in order regarding some of the company history. Yandex was founded in 1997 (currently the page says 1989).^[1]

Additionally, the second paragraph in the lead is redundant to the History section.

I suggest the following language for the History section, which explains the connection between Yandex and Nebius, and demonstrates that they are now two separate entities:

The predecessor to Nebius Group was Yandex N.V., the Dutch parent company of a Russian technology company Yandex, which began as a search engine in 1997.^[2] In May 2011, Yandex raised $1.3 billion in an IPO on the NASDAQ.^[3][4] In February 2022, the company's securities were suspended from trading on the NASDAQ due to international sanctions during the Russian invasion of the Ukraine.^[5] In July 2024, Yandex N.V. sold all of its Russian assets to a consortium of Russian investors, retaining several businesses that operated outside of Russia.^[6] This restructuring led to the creation of Nebius Group, focusing on infrastructure for artificial intelligence, with approximately over 1,000 former Yandex employees.^[7] Yandex N.V. changed its name to Nebius Group N.V.,^[8] with Arkady Volozh as CEO.^[9] In October 2024, Nebius resumed trading on the NASDAQ.^[10]

Encoded, would you mind taking a look here, as based on the references, the current article does not seem to factually represent Nebius? I am open to further discussion to clarify things.

@Wikigracht: I can see the source for Yandex starting in 1997, but don't see anything to source the foundation date for Yandex N.V. as the Dutch parent/holding company. STEMinfo (talk) 00:58, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi STEMinfo, thanks for looking into this. These three sources substantiate that the Yandex NV entity formally registered in Amsterdam as the Dutch parent/holding company in 2007.^[1][2][3] I believe these sources are sufficient to update the page.
