Okay Zac, are you ready for this? I've reverted your changes on Fibonacci Number, not because they're false, or vandalism, but because of WP:VERIFY, and WP:MOS. I think there's a great opportunity to grow here for you, so that's why I'm doing it this way. If you have any questions, feel free to ask :) McKay 06:11, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on SAF-TE requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. KurtRaschke (talk) 17:27, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! A minor point, but it's valuable to be complete in these things. Jeh (talk) 20:48, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Doesnt OS4 still have separate Kickstart and Workbench? You load Kickstart files from the disk and then you can boot into Workbench or boot without WB. Xorxos (talk) 17:02, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the section is titled 'ROM' and that part is different for AOS4. Without ever having seen OS4 in action, I presume it uses U-boot to boot the Kickstart image from HDD and then continues pretty similar to OS3- (Workbench scheme). The main difference is that Kickstart is booted and the firmware is for hardware initialization, POST and booting only. Found some details on [1] which seem to support this theory. Of course there's also OS4 for Classic, but that's (probably) a two staged startup process; either way, ROM Kickstart isn't used later on. Zac67 (talk) 17:31, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On Amiga 1000 you had to load Kickstart separately from the disk. But I am ok with it as it is now. Xorxos (talk) 20:36, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good point. Early A3000s use a 1.4 beta as boot ROM - I guess the section needs an entire rewrite as there are many variants of the general scheme. Zac67 (talk) 21:24, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Zac67. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Jeefo to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe CSD applies to the page in question. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 20:21, 8 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Serial ATA, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Isochronous and Power connector (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

	The Copyeditor's Barnstar
	Thanks for clarifying something I thought was a spelling error. Thanks also for recognizing my reasons for changing it (I am referring to the the minor edit reversion on Parallel SCSI).

Zello Zac67,

Not sure this is the right place for answering, anyway let s see if it works. I worked out the infos I added about Akiko by comparting the CD32 schematics with the A1200 schematics (http://www.amigawiki.org/doku.php?id=en:service:schematics). It seems to me that Akiko was C='s attempt to cut down the Amiga line production costs by integrating into a single VLSI chip all that logics that historically had been scattered around multilpe chips due to the limitations on the max number of gates per chip of the '80s era. However, I woinder if Akiko included all the functionalities of Gayle and teh CIAs or just a subset thereof. For example, did Akiko contained the logic to drive IDE discs and floppys ? I guess this would be an interesting topic that deserves further investigations. Attilio.fiandrotti 17:00, 13 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hello! Can you please clarify what was meant in this edit?

Here is how I'm seeing it:

• Forward error correction covers error correction / Data redundancy as engineering action
• Replication (computing) covers management tasks (where users protect/save data)
• Denormalization covered separately from databases
• Database normalization in databases has it's own topic

What else left? As you can see, this list is not small and "Data redundancy" was already covered by most of the articles.

I suggest to convert Data redundancy to disabig because there so few statements and they are far better covered somewhere else IMO.

What do you think? Ushkin N (talk) 21:27, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Discussion move over to Talk:Data redundancy#Convert it to disambiguation please)

Thanks for noticing the reference using what looks like a fake paper in the Ethernet article! Seems to me that there should be a worse word than plagiarism when the actual paper doesn't make sense together!

I am wondering if the whole college is fake, but decided to send a note to a dean about it.

I will tell you if I get any replies.
