Talk:Real-time locating standards
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wonderful, nobody comments on facts. Hopefully there is no misunderstanding. Uptaking standards for commenting is allowed. wireless friend (talk) 10:24, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] refs and style
I tagged to show how I feel the article might be improved. Widefox (talk) 10:30, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks Widefox. I removed one of the tags. As I said in the edit history, "IMO the {{confusing}} tag is for an article where the intent or the flow is generally confusing, not for articles that need copyediting or cover technical material. The flow seems logical here IMO." There are parts that are hard to read, which isn't surprising since the sole editor is not a native English-speaker, and since this is technical material, but as far as I can tell, he's doing a good job of following WP:NOT#TEXTBOOK and representing the state of the accepted standard, rather than doing original research. I kept the reference tag; the article would benefit from more and more specific citations. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 15:54, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, User:Niemeyerstein en just added a bunch of references and external links together and pointed to more references; that's okay for a start, and I don't expect one editor to write the whole article. This is not my field, but I have an opinion that Wikipedia would benefit from more articles like this one, and I intend to start contributing some day soon. Of course, the external links need to be moved into a separate section called External links which needs to be the last section on the page, and most of the references need to be in-line rather than at the end, but we'll get there eventually. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 17:20, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Feel free to delete this page. Thank you. --wireless friend (talk) 17:30, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
- I don't understand what you mean, Niemeyerstein. Keep up the good work. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 18:13, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] merge 4 articles into "Real-time locating"
It's my opinion that these articles (Real-time locating standards RTLS implementing RTLS communications) are best merged into one article (say Real-time locating), and maybe even merged with Geolocation. Widefox (talk) 09:25, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- The Geolocation article has a fair number of edits that have only resulted in a stub; I wouldn't recommend including that in a merge. I don't have an opinion on merging the other 3. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 14:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
Stupid, these mentioned articles were generated according to the requirement to split with respect to length. All recommendations from self determined policy policeguys may please these themselves, but please put the fingers off this stuff.--Wireless friend (talk) 17:16, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
- yes I know the article was split due to size. You may want to check that guideline (WP:SIZE) for how to split an article. If you are saying that you do not welcome input from other editors, then this guideline might be of some use (WP:OWN). Sorry if this seems like I'm giving you a lot of guidelines, but they really should help, and we really are here to all help each other! Widefox (talk) 21:26, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
