[edit] DoD model
Pardon me, but what has this to do with the American Department of Defense? I am confused and angry for unspecified reasons. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.227.10.12 (talk • contribs) .
- Perhaps because it was developed by DARPA, which is an agency of the Department of Defence? Bryan 00:21, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move
DoD model → TCP/IP model — "TCP/IP model" is less US-centric, as per User:Mange01; Internet protocol suite isn't specifically about the model, so TCP/IP model shouldn't go there. Guy Harris 08:47, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Time for another move?
The opening paragraph now speaks of the TCP/IP reference model rather than the TCP/IP model - the TCP/IP reference model page is a redirect to TCP/IP model, but, with that change, it sounds as if the primary page should be called "TCP/IP reference model" with "TCP/IP model" being a redirect to it. Unfortunately, there's no "swap" operation that lets any user exchange a page with a redirect to that page, so, to make that change, we'd have to request another move by an administrator; should we do so?

- Google gives more hits on "TCP/IP model", so I reverted my change of the opening paragraph. Instead I added "Internet reference model" as an alternative term. That solves the problem. A move is not necessary. Mange01 21:34, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
