The edits and user talk page of User talk:71.41.210.146 inspired me to put a few userboxes here.

Hi, the recent edit you made to Von Neumann syndrome has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks. Keilana|Parlez ici 17:48, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Dear fellow wikipedians,
At first glance, it appears that I deleted a bunch of good, encyclopedic information from the Von Neumann syndrome article.
However, if you look carefully, my edit summary says "(moved everything to von Neumann bottleneck)". That seems "informative" to me. What else could I have said that would have been more informative?
Fortunately, both halves of the move have been reverted, avoiding a potential content fork (WP:CFORK).
I hope my comments at Talk:von Neumann syndrome clarify what I want to do.

Okay, I see another user has already explained to you about copy/pasting over re-directs. I'll WP:AGF and remove the warning :-) - Have you thought about creating an account? It'd make communication and editing so much easier! :-) ScarianCall me Pat 20:20, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
You are quite right that an article about a hoax may be acceptable if notable enough, e.g. Ern Malley or the Sokal hoax; but a hoax article, falsehood or nonsense submitted to Wikipedia as fact, is a different matter, and "this article is a hoax", if backed up with evidence, is a good argument for deletion. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 21:56, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
Please do not edit the article directly if you have questions about an articles accuracy unless you are going to tag the article or change the information. Personal comments should be made on the talk page of an article and not on its main page.Nrswanson (talk) 14:17, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for your input on the recent AFD on Taser controversy. The editors involved with that article would like to continue the discussion on how to proceed and invite you to join the discussion at Talk:Taser controversy. The latest discussions include Talk:Taser controversy#re:Globalise and Talk:Taser controversy#Renaming this article?. Flatscan (talk) 02:06, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't think ILLIAC I and ORDVAC were asynchronous, as DE Muller hadn't invented the C-Element yet, I think he was still a physicist at Caltech at the time. Could you please remove these items from the list of asynchronous CPU's. SystemBuilder (talk) 19:35, 24 July 2008 (UTC) (son of D. B. Gillies)
Dear SystemBuilder,
I assume you are talking about History_of_general_purpose_CPUs#Asynchronous_CPUs.
I think you are right about the timing of the invention of the C-Element.
I honestly admit I have no first-hand or even second-hand experience with either computer.
Thank you for pointing out reasons for doubting some questionable "facts" I posted to Wikipedia. While I have no doubt that I have posted many things to Wikipedia that I will regret after learning they are merely "common misconceptions", in this particular case I seem to have a reference that supports keeping ILLIAC I on the list of asynchronous CPUs.
The ILLIAC I Wikipedia article links to ILLIAC I documentation at bitsavers.org, which in turn links to the 1955 report "Illiac Design Techniques", which mentions "Conventional binary counting is unexpectedly difficult when asynchronous circuits are employed." and whose final summary begins "The Illiac is a binary parallel asynchronous computer in which negative numbers are represented as two's complements." . Since that report refers to "the" ILLIAC, and from the 1955 date on the report, I assume it is talking about what we now call the ILLIAC I.
That is why I still believe that the ILLIAC I and the identical ORDVAC were asynchronous, even though I agree that they were not designed using the yet-to-be-invented C-elements.
And that is why I plan to keep them on the list of asynchronous CPUs.
Would it make Wikipedia better if I were to add a more direct reference to this 1955 report to the History_of_general_purpose_CPUs#Asynchronous_CPUs or the Asynchronous_circuit#asynchronous_CPU articles (or both) ?
--68.0.124.33 (talk) 03:32, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
I have just reviewed the ILLIAC computer series design documents, and indeed you are right! The counting circuit is grey-coded, and the additive logic looks like swahili to me, and so therefore i believe (as it says in the summary section) that the clock cycle depends on the delay for the logic elements, rather than the other way around, i.e. it's asynchronous (although not the more narrowly defined 'speed independent' ...)

Greetings, are you still the same 68.0.124.33 who proposed merging of ARMD (disambiguation) into ARMD?
If so, please be aware that I've actually made a contribution to the ARMD {HDD) page and so have some interest in this.
I'll put further ideas in the ARMD talk page, to which the merge proposal links. Jeh (talk) 06:09, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I've made some changes to the article and left some comments on the talk page. Please do not be discouraged by the anti-social behaviour of the minority here. Really, the good guys are in the majority, it's just a shame you hit a difficult customer. Keep up the good work. By the way, can I suggest that you create an account? We can never be sure that we are always talking to the same person when you edit from an IP address. SpinningSpark 11:23, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Back in March 2008 you added 'Skip' as an addressing mode. I agree that it should be in the article, but I'm not sure if it is in quite the correct place within the article. Do you know of any current computers which use this addressing mode; if there are some significant current computers which use 'skip' I'll leave that section where it is (possibly with revised wording), if there are some relatively obscure current computers I propose to move that section further down under 'Other addressing modes', otherwise I propose to move it down under 'Obsolete addressing modes'. Murray Langton (talk) 15:21, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
I've added a new major section: "Conditional code which avoids addressing modes", currently with both 'skip' and 'conditional intructions'. Probably some rewording to follow (by me or you?). Murray Langton (talk) 10:38, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Hello 68.etc. You have a sentence in the Substitution–permutation networks article on how they compare to Feistel networks, with a reference to a paper. The claim might be correct, but the reference does not seem to explain it. As I see, that paper simply makes the same claim about "modern CPUs", and refers to Feistel's 1971 Scientific American paper, which says nothing about this, especially about modern CPU's... If you had any better reference, that would be great. --GaborPete (talk) 07:08, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi- Your help is needed! Could you add your instruction & table to the Wikitext examples help page?

I noticed your change to the Place_and_route page in which you claim that Place-and-Route is also called "layout". I have never heard these two terms used synonymously, and I tend to disagree with your edit. However, rather than revert it, I'd like to know why you think this to be the case. In my experience (which spans over 25 years and includes a textbook on the subject) "layout" is a general term for the geometric description of a circuit whereas "place and route" is a specific way of creating layout. I await a reply, but if I don't hear from you, I will revert your edit. Thanks. strubin (talk) 02:16, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
What you say is true...placing and routing are certainly the steps involved in doing layout. So I would agree that it could be mentioned later in the article that place-and-route are the essential steps required to do any layout, manual or automated. Perhaps the thing I found most jarring was that you presented this as a synonym, and that it appeared in the very first sentence of the article. If you want to rearrange it as you described, it would soften the linkage and that would be fine. strubin (talk) 00:48, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for this edit, I like this kind of stuff. :) Paradoctor (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
I've removed your addition on the 'July effect' from Calendar effect, since it is not an economic calendar effect. I'm not sure whether there are better articls for this addition, or whether 'calendar effect' should really be restricted to economic effects, but it really didn't fit there the way you added to it.
