[edit] Tweaking

The content isn't complex enough to justify an entry (this should be a dictionary entry, not an encyclopedia entry, maybe move to the wiki dictionary project). Additionally, bad writing style and bad examples (LAME). Fbergo 05:42, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as per nom. DES 05:46, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I would argue that falling isn't complex, yet has an article. As for bad writing style and examples, that isn't a good argument for deletion. If you feel an article is poorly written, fix it. --Pagrashtak 06:01, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, but it needs serious rewriting - Che Nuevara, the Democratic Revolutionary 06:14, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep clean up with more methamphetamine. Tweaking is SoCal slang for meth-heads. Klonimus 07:00, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Reasonably common colloquial usage among computer users. Article is not very good but IMHO has considerable potential. Tweek was also the name of a controversial audiophile product that was supposed to improve the quality of contacts in switches used in audio systems. Dpbsmith (talk) 13:32, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
• delete per nom, use here is slang, could be dic def. (Authors should add similar content to appropriate articles.) In current state, it's just an outline of how electronics and software are modified in the development process. Same points should be made in articles about electronics, software, and so on. Can't really have an article about the word modify or improve with the focus limited to amplifier tuning. Tweaking means a thousands different things in a thousand different disciplines.

• Keep as per above arguments. ^…Markaci 2005-07-25 T 23:24:41 Z
• Keep on tweaking this article until it becomes a featured candidate. —RaD Man (talk) 00:11, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete or at best transwiki. Why do we give so much more slack to stupid computer-related articles as compared to stupid non-computer-related articles? Nandesuka 01:18, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, but work needed. Agentsoo 10:39, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep but cleanup. Common electronics term. JamesBurns 07:56, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
