[edit] Steve Wozniak

Please, stop reverting. I am correcting the information in the article. Wozniak did not design Breakout, Nolan Bushnell did. Woz programmed it. While Steve Jobs was working at Atari, Bushnell asked if he could do, he said yes, and then asked Woz if he could help him out. Woz ended out coding the original. How can "nobody" not program a game, if it had not been programmed, it would not exist. I do know what programming means, I am a programmer in my spare time. You should also read some books on the subject, such as Infinite Loop by Michael S.Malone which speaks of the topic when Jobs was working at Atari and got Woz to program the original Breakout for Bushnell. Breakout was hardware and software, you know. Maybe it should say 'programmed and designed' for Atari/Bushnell or something similar. — Wackymacs 11:32, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

You obviously never bothered to read the breakout article. It states, correctly, that breakout was not a CPU-based game - it had no software. None. Hence nobody programmed it. Mirror Vax 11:36, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
If there was no software, then what displayed anything on the screen, hmm? You've just said it was not CPU based. So it wasnt hardware or software, ehh? You make no sense. hardware still has to be programmed, by the way. Some of the earliest programming was in hardware. — Wackymacs 11:45, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
OK forget all this, I've replaced the word with "developed" instead of programmed or designed, no problem now. — Wackymacs 14:05, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Print Shop

Are you absolutely sure you know an Amiga release? I only found references to the C64. -- Polluks 15:06, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes. See [1]. Or search groups.google.com. [2]. Mirror Vax 18:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
You are kidding! One reference without price :-7 Did you really read any of the postings? C'mon! -- Polluks 17:38, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
BTW your first reference says "C-64 only had 48k", do you consider him trustworthy?
You are right. Sorry. I probably confused Print Shop with Deluxe Print. Mirror Vax 18:28, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
Hmm, how about an article Deluxe Print? http://amiga.emucamp.com/dprint2.htm -- Polluks 12:08, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:AfdAnons

Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Nufy8 18:35, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Please don't try and pass that off as a legimate edit. Deliberate misinformation is vandalism. And please don't remove my warnings on your talk page. Nufy8 18:42, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --MONGO 18:44, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for vandalism of Wikipedia. Please note that page blanking, addition of random text or spam, deliberate misinformation, privacy violations, and other deliberate attempts to disrupt Wikipedia are considered vandalism. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may come back after the block expires. Nufy8 18:53, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I defy you to point to any "misinformation". As it happens, the truth is very nearly the opposite of what the template stated - but that's not my fault, is it? Why don't you block whomever wrote the grossly misleading nonsense about AFD not being a vote? Mirror Vax 19:00, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I have PRODed "Loudness War"

[edit] Loudness War

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Loudness War, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] About The Loudness war

Mirror Vax, are you the kind of person who goes to a movie theater to watch a show, and once the show is over, sneaks in to another one only to catch few minutes before the end? Why don't you read all the comments before assuming all that? I actually ended up contributing to this article, making it read more comprehensible (So far, no one has reverted anything). Nothing of relevance has been deleted either, and your name was not smeared with false accusations. The Loudness war is doing just fine and several users promised to make sure it remains free of nonsense. So, congratulations on your contribution to WP and come back, don't be a sour-puss :-).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Beneathappleprodos.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Beneathappleprodos.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Project FMF (talk) 14:53, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
