In the opening paragraphs:
"companies" currently links directly to
http://www.openstack.org/foundation/companies/ , I think
the encyclopedic norm would be for that link to be in a ref on "more than
150 companies".
"portable software" could link to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_portability
"SUSE Linux" should likely just be SUSE and link to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SUSE
The strength of the article is also very dependent on the quality of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing and specifically
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IaaS#Infrastructure_as_a_service_.28IaaS.29
which are not particularly strong, and likely contain "original research."
Possibly, we could rally to improve these as well.
Hope that helps,
