- 13:4413:44, 28 September 2020 diff hist +9 m Exposure Notification →Alternatives: reword
- 13:4313:43, 28 September 2020 diff hist +220 Exposure Notification →Deployment: whilst this is probably true of already-existing devices, the lack of the number two smartphone company is worth noting, even outside of china
- 13:3513:35, 28 September 2020 diff hist +289 Exposure Notification →Alternatives: huawei
- 13:2913:29, 28 September 2020 diff hist 0 Exposure Notification →Non-adopters: non-adopter risk bias, there are other systems - it's not a case of adopting or not adopting
1 August 2020
- 20:0420:04, 1 August 2020 diff hist −4 Shortages related to the COVID-19 pandemic →Consumer goods: fix contradiction - the later section rightly discusses whether this is panic buying or other causes, it's contradictory to say this as fact in the intro
13 July 2020
- 15:4915:49, 13 July 2020 diff hist +64 Amazon (company) reduce weasel wording; a couple of articles with weasel words doesn't make an established term,and some articles mention 5 companies, FANG covers a different set of companies, so simpler to say top 4 or 5
30 June 2020
- 23:1523:15, 30 June 2020 diff hist +362 Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear →Controversy: also include Trent Oster's response
- 23:1323:13, 30 June 2020 diff hist +35 Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear →Controversy: source articles refer to initial release, not a reflection of reviews over the years; specify where this was
- 23:0223:02, 30 June 2020 diff hist −40 Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear →Controversy: simplify, avoid pov - unclear how this is about politics - the next sentence explains the details anyway
10 May 2020
- 13:3113:31, 10 May 2020 diff hist +9 Hang the DJ simplify - only one of the refs mentioned "siri" and this doesn't seem to be a notable part of reviews or the story, it was about a dating application
29 August 2019
- 22:3622:36, 29 August 2019 diff hist +25 Amaranthe (album) no need to list every shop date separately - and if it was first released 11th not the 13th, maybe we should just say the 11th
18 August 2019
- 00:2500:25, 18 August 2019 diff hist −2 Escape from Monkey Island doesn't seem to be available anymore
24 July 2019
- 22:2122:21, 24 July 2019 diff hist −150 Doom (1993 video game) →Expansions and ports: pov - and proven false given it could run the unofficial port; also list other major platforms missed
19 April 2019
- 11:2811:28, 19 April 2019 diff hist +41 Comparison of disk encryption software →Background information: clarify CC licence - and BY-NC-ND 4.0 is not a Free Software or Open Source licence, even if the source code is available to view
- 11:1811:18, 19 April 2019 diff hist +17 Usage share of operating systems 20% seems rather higher than the more usual 7-10% figures
- 11:1611:16, 19 April 2019 diff hist +60 Usage share of operating systems Macos isn't a mobile phone or watch os, so shouldn't be lumped together in that count! Nor should tablets be included, according to the comment. Should be replaced with an iphone-only estimate. At 80/20 split, they don't really both dominate.
- 11:0811:08, 19 April 2019 diff hist −75 Opera (web browser) the official source on platforms seems a better ref than an article primarily about a different story, and risks becoming out of date
- 11:0311:03, 19 April 2019 diff hist +104 Opera (web browser) clarify - consistency with Opera Software
16 August 2018
- 23:4823:48, 16 August 2018 diff hist −3,425 Courtney Act don't need advertising to shop links - for references/notability, should be 3rd party reviews
18 June 2018
- 23:0323:03, 18 June 2018 diff hist +7 Hung Up →Background and release: generalise, there's more than one site to buy music from - the quote even says there's plenty of competition; we should wikilink the product, not a competitor
- 22:5922:59, 18 June 2018 diff hist −98 Hung Up no need to list every single time a song is released first on one out of countless music shops
- 22:5622:56, 18 June 2018 diff hist −842 Elizabeth Holmes →Personal life: one journalist assuming everything to revolve around apple doesn't support "generally", pointless to list something that wasn't true anyway; pointless focus on what a woman wears - simply not notable
- 22:5422:54, 18 June 2018 diff hist −42 Elizabeth Holmes →Funding and expansion: reference doesn't support the articles saying this; pointless applevert anyway
25 March 2018
- 14:0914:09, 25 March 2018 diff hist +131 Talk:Nokia 8 No edit summary
14 January 2018
- 17:1817:18, 14 January 2018 diff hist +16 Wonga.com "the" doesn't make sense, there's no longer just one model
19 December 2017
- 22:5022:50, 19 December 2017 diff hist −32 MP4 file format →.MP4 versus .M4A: simplify, pointless to claim "popularise" here, just state the facts
3 December 2017
- 22:0322:03, 3 December 2017 diff hist −366 Google Translate →Mobile apps: not a native application, this is just a special version of the webpage because ios evidently couldn't handle the normal one - we already cover Google Translate as a webpage elsewhere, goes without saying that's for mobile too
29 November 2017
- 22:1722:17, 29 November 2017 diff hist −116 Generation Z →Terminology: Non-notable - it's a brief sentence in one article, and was posed as a speculative question; plenty of other examples like iplayer
3 September 2017
- 22:3422:34, 3 September 2017 diff hist +18 Some Girls Wander by Mistake →Track listing: google play it's in addition too - apple tunes is hardly a reliable source for claiming it to be true for all digital versions
- 22:3222:32, 3 September 2017 diff hist +133 Some Girls Wander by Mistake →Track listing: +ref
- 22:3022:30, 3 September 2017 diff hist −60 Some Girls Wander by Mistake →Track listing: simplify, this is like saying "CD from HMV", no need to list every (or any) shop
29 May 2017
- 15:5115:51, 29 May 2017 diff hist −177 Kotlin (programming language) blogs not a reliable or notable source (one could make similar comparisons to plenty of languages, e.g., C# - this is hardly worth a special mention)
12 February 2017
- 19:0619:06, 12 February 2017 diff hist −169 Natural-language understanding →History: these do useful things, but this isn't on-topic for natural language understanding (unless we're counting everything else that parses textual input like Command Prompt and text adventures!)
- 19:0419:04, 12 February 2017 diff hist +75 Intelligent personal assistant earlier Android versions had voice input
- 19:0219:02, 12 February 2017 diff hist +31 Intelligent personal assistant +office assistant
31 January 2017
- 22:2322:23, 31 January 2017 diff hist +32 IP code →Ingress Protection for consumer electronics: "just recently" will become outdated in time, add Google which also introduced IP rated phones in 2016
21 January 2017
- 12:5012:50, 21 January 2017 diff hist +4 Sadako 3D →Plot: simplify - product placement isn't notable and not needed here (we don't mention the brand of the truck)
17 July 2016
- 13:2813:28, 17 July 2016 diff hist +71 Talk:Mega-Lo-Mania →Finding sources: sign
- 13:2713:27, 17 July 2016 diff hist +1,589 Talk:Mega-Lo-Mania →Finding sources: new section
13 December 2015
- 16:2316:23, 13 December 2015 diff hist +282 Samsung Galaxy Note 4 →Reception: use in first 4k feature film shot with smartphone
27 May 2015
- 22:3122:31, 27 May 2015 diff hist −6 Music tracker i wouldn't call ~20 years ago recent
- 22:2822:28, 27 May 2015 diff hist +46 Music tracker →1990s: MS-DOS PC versions: Amiga MED SoundStudio also offered 64
12 April 2015
- 10:5610:56, 12 April 2015 diff hist −162 Siege of Paris (845) rv unsourced - given that they lost in the show, it doesn't seem to have depicted this siege, and a reference would be better for this kind of claim
29 March 2015
- 23:4623:46, 29 March 2015 diff hist 0 Digital rights management →DRM-free works: rephrase to make clearer
- 23:4423:44, 29 March 2015 diff hist +49 Digital rights management →DRM-free works: google play
19 February 2015
- 00:0900:09, 19 February 2015 diff hist +19 Civilization (series) →Chronology: +windows phone
1 February 2015
- 23:1623:16, 1 February 2015 diff hist +10 May the Force Be with You (Only Fools and Horses) snip applevert, don't need to list the length per-shop, online or offline
2 January 2015
- 23:3923:39, 2 January 2015 diff hist +11 Brainfuck →End-of-line code: seems relevant to add this, given its origin on the Amiga
5 September 2014
- 23:4523:45, 5 September 2014 diff hist −10 Aspect ratio (image) simplify - this isn't the place to mention specific products, otherwise there'd be loads to list - it's a category of general products (it would be like listing "WHSmith Notepad" under the A4 paper section...)
25 June 2014
- 22:4322:43, 25 June 2014 diff hist −114 Palm Pre →History and availability: pov - not our place to say whether they did or didn't copy
