Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/WikiProject used

I have collected several pages which contain {{disambiguation needed}} tags on computing-related topics which might be resolvable with expert attention. They range between the very technical and the very vague (in some cases, it seems quite possible that the editor who made the link didn't know what they were talking about). To find the problem, search for 'disam' in read view or for '{{d' in edit view. If you manage to solve any of these puzzles, remove the dab-needed tag from the article, and post {{done}} here.

Thanks in advance, Narky Blert (talk)

Can anyone improve E-text?

E-text is currently unacceptably bad.

- It reads like a personal essay. (WP:NOTESSAY)

- It's been tagged with "This article needs attention from an expert in Books" since November 2008.

- It's been tagged with "This article needs additional citations for verification" since January 2013.

Can anyone improve this article? Thanks.

I have collected a mixed bag of articles with computing-related DABlinks where expert attention would be welcome. It supersedes my post of October 2018. Search for 'disam' in read mode, and for '{{d' in edit mode; and if you solve any of these puzzles, remove the {{dn}} tag and post {{done}} here.

After discussions spread over the last couple of years, we have finally updated Wikipedia:External links#Links in lists with some new advice about how to format external links in some stand-alone lists. This format is not mandatory, but it may be helpful in some cases. Please feel free to try it out in pages that you think are appropriate, and leave feedback on the guideline's talk page.

Network Kanji Filter

Hi all, came across the above software article while fixing typos but am wondering whether it is notable enough for a standalone article as it appears to be contrary to WP:NOTJARGON/WP:NOTGUIDE, also found this - "Nkf is a yet another kanji code converter among networks, hosts and terminals.", so doesn't appear to be unique/significant? please be gentle if i am totally offtrack (maybe sending be a minnow:)) as i am not very computer savvy, hence why am asking here, and not boldly sending it to afd, thanks.

The article looks like a direct copy from the application documentation (possible copyright violation). Speedy deletion (G12) may be suitable in this case, or simply use Prod and wait, if anybody improves the article. Pavlor (talk) 08:39, 25 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request for information on WP1.0 web tool

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Assistive Intelligence and Technologies

  What is the correlation between the functions of certain parts of the human brain and a CPU?

In order to extend or create a new type of life-form -- whether it is "synthetic" or "Naturally occurring" -- you will and would/should need a template of some sort. ARM64 for short-term memory, input. POWER for learning, recurring accumulatively cumulative tasks. SPARC64 for database, long term memory, scaling, "growth", "evolution"
