Talk:Scrambling
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scrambling is also a term in communications engineering. It means adding a pseudo-random noise to a digital singal before line coding. This should be reflected here somehow.
Since I am not a native speaker (working on the german wikipedia) i can't write the article.

Scramling is also a term used to describe a variety of motorcycle sports. I presume that a disambiguation page would be appropriate, together with renaming the existing page to something like "Scrambling: climbing". I may try to do it myself eventually but I haven't been around Wikipedia long enough to feel confident about moving pages around. --Smile 22:28, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Following a quick Google search of the WWW it seems that the term scrambling in motor sports has been replaced by Motocross. --Smile 22:39, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
As someone form the world of motocross and/or scrambling --> scrambling is the British way or expressing off road motorcycle racing in the age before jumps (say up to 1960 although the term is still in use). The world motocross come form continental Europe, probable French. Thus as off road motorcycles and the circuit have evolved modern scrambling is *generally* called motocross (or MX) however the term scrambling is still used :-
1) In, how shall I say, less modern areas, as the same as motocross 2) Most commonly for "classic" motocross 3) In an historical context when referring to the history of motocross the era would definitely be know as scrambling
Thus --> probable should be disambiguation , although the motocross article is not YET developed enough yet to be discussing scrambling (in the off road motorcycling scene)
