Talk:Carrier-sense multiple access with collision detection
NO ITS NOT, this is false information
After "a carrier sensing scheme is used" someone put "NO ITS NOT, this is false information". I don't know whether it's true or not, but this isn't the right way to inform readers.
how to reduce collision

the references section needs some cleanup, it doesn't fit wiki standards.

Collision detection is not done by CRC
The article implies that collision detection is based on CRC. This is incorrect. It is an analog process -- the transceiver monitors the wire while it is sending, and if it detects a signal on the wire that differs from what it sent (because another transceiver is also contributing) that is a collision.
Collision detection is a physical layer function. CRC handling is a MAC layer function. The two are not connected.
