Talk:NaturallySpeaking

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Huh - I mean I understand that the concept of allowing applications to be programmatically extended was pioneered by Emacs, but given that nearly every significant piece of Windows software supports COM automation is this relevant here? --ScottWeinstein 13:54, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] COMPLIMENTS!

24.149.131.89, I have to say your edits make a much more interesting article to read. THANK YOU! Nastajus 06:14, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] History

Try as I might for a month, I don't understand the first paragraph of the History update. I'm requesting that it be rewritten more clearly. It's like the information is not in order or missing.

In it's current form, I cannot get these questions out of my head: 1. How can a precursor product be developed in 1990 but after 1982? 2. What precisely was originally created? Was it "NaturallySpeaking"?

[edit] Question

  • Is the Macro Recorder affected by changes in screen resolution? Nastajus 00:47, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Talk:NaturallySpeakingNaturallySpeakingDragon NaturallySpeaking – As per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names), the full name is in far more use. This move requires no discussion and no voting. The only reason this is listed here is because an administrator is needed to merge the old history in Dragon NaturallySpeaking to the end of the main article, NaturallySpeaking. Thank you — Nastajus 03:18, 13 September 2005 (UTC)


Add *Support or *Oppose followed by an optional one sentence explanation, then sign your vote with ~~~~
  • Support, this is the correct, official, and the most common name. --Sharcho 17:54, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Add any additional comments

Moved from WP:RM:

"This move requires no discussion and no voting." is nonsense; half of the content of Talk:NaturallySpeaking is a fairly comprehensive explanation why the page name would better be without "Dragon". So, presently there's one person telling it should be without "Dragon", and another telling it should be with "Dragon", so either there's a vote or probably it'll stay where it is. --Francis Schonken 06:47, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
I apologize for saying no discussion required. I realize facts are needed instead. Google search for "Dragon NaturallySpeaking" yields 649,000 hits, and NaturallySpeaking -"Dragon NaturallySpeaking" 38,900 hits. At 94% I think this is a fair comparison. I've updated the Talk:NaturallySpeaking page, I've put back my signature. I originally took it out for easier reading, I didn't want my name spread completely over the talk page, I was trying to encourage the community to contribute to the article at the time.

The full title Dragon NaturallySpeaking is long, it should be used formally once at the beginning. After that using NaturallySpeaking consistently through the remainder of the document should be all: professional, accurate, and reasonably short. This would also contribute to keeping sanity.

Consistent naming should be used throughout the document. Even if NaturallySpeaking is longer than Dragon, and even if saying it causes our menu to appear. Dragon alone can refer to DragonDictate, Dragon NaturallySpeaking is too long, DNS as in Domain Name System heavily outclasses Dragon NaturallySpeaking in Google searches, etc. Domain trumps Dragon everywhere, it has saturated the Internet and is applicable to a much larger demographic. NaturallySpeaking is the best suited name. Nastajus 03:06, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Decision

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it be moved. Ryan Norton T | @ | C 01:09, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Versions 8 or 9?

The article makes no mention of v9, even in 2006, but the Nuance website talks about v9 as if it is current, at least in some countries. Does anyone know for sure what is current and where? 138.37.199.206 09:11, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
