[edit] Reflection (computer programming)

Thanks for pointing out this page in Comparison of Programming Languages, it's being very useful to me. 62.101.126.214 (talk) 14:19, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Comparison of programming languages (basic instructions)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Comparison of programming languages (basic instructions), is considered as a bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you have any information on Windows PowerShell's object oriented programming features, please contribute - I have never used PowerShell before. --Btx40 (talk) 15:56, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for your improvements to the Binary prefix and Binary prefix - Timeline articles; they look better now! Please feel free to make further improvements to Binary prefix; the article isn't well-written at all and could greatly benefit from a fresh look. Thanks, shreevatsa (talk) 21:19, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia is not an instruction manual

Wikipedia policy is very clear about this -- this is not a place for instruction manuals. WP:NOTMANUAL covers this. Please don't fight or argue the point... if you're interested in writing manual pages, do so at Wikibooks or wikiHow. Your recent edit history shows that you are either completely unaware of this, for which you now have no excuse not to, or have chosen to contravene Wikipedia policy. In either case, please respect the goals of the project and immediately stop adding information that is out of scope. Thanks. -/- Warren 16:45, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry. Go ahead and delete every article that is linked in the Template:Unix_commands and come back. All I try to do is get Unix/DOS/Windows coverage balanced. Thanks. Ghettoblaster (talk) 16:52, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of real-time operating systems

Wow! Thanks for filling out list of real-time operating systems. I thought about going back through the history and digging up some more. It didn't occur to me there would be any in list of operating systems. What do you think about the extra columns I suggested on the talk page? —EncMstr (talk) 22:30, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I put the latest version of deleted article Fusion RTOS (as of 2008-05-22T06:27:16 by Ghettoblaster) in User:Ghettoblaster/Fusion. Actually, it's not quite the same: there was a blacklisted external link which prevent the save, so I changed the website to pure text. It seems an okay article: not great, but not awful. It would be helpful it it asserted greater notability. Maybe you—and other RTOS fans—can expand it and make it more compelling. When it gets to that state, the article might be successfully recreated. However, the blacklisting of the URL is an interesting problem, perhaps caused by repeated anti spam efforts against promoters of the site. WP:WikiProject Spam might have details how to fix that. —EncMstr (talk) 10:06, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tcl

I undid your removal of a number of links from the Tcl page. While in general I agree that there's no need to put masses of links to a site, you removed important links that were definitive and useful for students either of programming languages in general or of Tcl in particular. No particular criticism intended; I just happen to think that there are good reasons for retaining those particular links. (Good taste in all things, including the application of ones principles...) Donal Fellows (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

All I can say is that I still disagree and that I hope someone else will fix the external links section then, because I'm not going to go through all of them and decide what is relvant and what not. Please mind: WP:NOTLINK. Ghettoblaster (talk) 14:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Microsoft Office 2007

Hey, I saw you removed my info about a portable version. I was just planning to do so, because it was fake information where I was not knowing about. Was illegally packed as portable, Microsoft never launched such a version. So, thanks! Dr. F.C. Turner - [USERPAGE|USERTALK] - 11:23, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Comparison_of_office_suites

U undid removal of Novel OpenOffice.org. I removed it because most distributions slightly change the vanilla openoffice.org in accordance to their philosophy including Ubuntu and Redhat. Do we want to present all of these in the article ? Further, I believe Novel derive their version of openoffice from go-oo. (Bulletgani (talk) 14:40, 6 June 2008 (UTC))
