Waiting for assessment[edit]

After my final publishing of this article tonight, I am expecting new assessments from the Law enforcement, Computer Science and Telecommunications wikiprojects. I have avoided directly requesting assessments from wikiprojects and did not manually enter any assessments myself.Modernedits01 (talk) 09:22, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Meaning[edit]

It would be good with an explanation for the name. 94.220.254.168 (talk) 17:55, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The etymological source is correct; however, APB is mentioned already in the 1950's film noir classic "D.O.A." opening scene so its first appearance could be earlier. 84.74.100.43 (talk) 14:40, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly are the points in an APB?

Does "all points" mean "a complete description" of the fugitive? Or does it mean "all police stations, ports, etc."? Thanks, Maikel (talk) 09:36, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

KALOF and KLO4[edit]

I can't find any reference to these terms outside of Wikipedia and spammy copies of it. Equinox ◑ 23:38, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
