Article alerts

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Peer to Peer is an original and patented technologies.

Please respect the inventions and patented technologies.

Peer to Peer was first invented in 1996 by a company named Pipedream US patent 5884031, Jeffrey L. Ice, "Method for connecting client systems into a broadcast network", issued 1996-10-1  , not Napster... Napster was the first hacking project to prevent artists and editors to collect from their work. Peer to Peer technology is not by essence nicely represented by Napster. Another patent made in 1998 by Patrick Zuili US patent 6633901, Patrick Zuili, "Multi-route client-server architecture", issued 1998-10-22  was clearly showing the particularities of peer to peer as a whole architecture to maintain and fragment a content into a plurality of clients, long before Napster, long before any other cited references, beside the invention of the telephone that could be cited as a reference beside the fact that it has no relationship with a peer to peer exchange. (protocol particularity)

If these patent are not known by general public, does not remove the value of its original content as well novelty in the matter.

By removing annotations Wikipedia network and users remove themselves from the truth and the reality of facts.

RFC1 describe peer to peer as much as the telephone does long time before...Please before inserting references review them if you understand basic concepts !

Source Wikipedia Napster was created in 1999, "the first of its kind in the late 1990s" look improper why not putting the right date which is 1999.

It look like the maintenance of this page as well as its content is improper thanks to historical facts and time stamped references like patents.

it look like the people involved to validate changes do validate based on their own interests, preventing originals inventors of any response or even tagging them as spammer...

Patents are protected in USA, as much as copyright, please refrain yourself from commenting third parties inventors because "content that violates any copyrights will be deleted

I am not sure I follow your reasoning here. You probably know that the Peer-to-peer page currently does not claim what you say it does about Napster: actually, it says it was "one of the first" peer-to-peer systems. And you weren't the one changing that, someone else was. What you changed, on the other hand, involved repeatedly adding claims that Patrick Zuili (that is you, surely?) filed the first patent for the first peer-to-peer system. That was not based on reliable secondary sources (actually, it was not sourced at all), and it has been reverted. Please, also keep in mind the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guideline. Additionally, I encourage you to discuss the issue (if any) on the article's talk page, first, before going on various project and appeal pages complaining, without having entertained in any discussion with the other editors at all. --LjL (talk) 16:02, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Domainers mover to CyberSquatters???

The article about Domainers was eliminated and redirected to the Cyber Squatting page. I,as a domainer, spent a lot of time editing the Domainer article and working to establish it as a reputable source. Now my work is gone. I like balancd and honest contributions but it is not possible when the topic is continually relabeled with such a negative, seemingly hateful spirit as calling Domainers the same thing as Cyber Squatters.

Anamorphism

Can someone please take a look at Anamorphism (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch? As has been raised at Too much unexplained jargon, the article is very skimpy on definitions, in particular it doesn't even define the term itself. — Sebastian 23:58, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

"VESA Video Interface Port" article

The Feature connector article talks not only about the connector itself, but also about the VESA Video Interface Port which has no article yet. So, can someone merge both? or make the VESA Video Interface Port article based on the Feature connector article? I'm not bold enough to do it. 186.136.87.139 (talk) 04:12, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

What you are saying suggest they are already merged i dnt think they need serperate articles either due to not be notable enough--Andy (talk - contrib) 16:07, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

So it's ok to link VESA Video Interface Port to Feature connector? 186.136.87.139 (talk) 03:25, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Comparison of ABAP and Java

This article was proposed for deletion on the grounds of unfixable original research. I deprodded as it seemed to me that a comparison between the two was reasonable, but I don't know enough about computer programming to properly assess and fix the article. Any assessments of it and editing would be welcome. Fences&Windows 16:05, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
