Other sources[edit]

are noted, but probably either not WP:RS, or WP:OR. Also ought to include ROOL's Resource allocation. -- Trevj (talk) 14:50, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Some filetypes[edit]

May well be considered WP:OR, as these were determined by looking at !Run/!Boot files of a live RISC OS system. I'll merge them in if somebody is willing to give a nod.

Layout is: RISC OS type - RISC OS type name - MIME mapping if known (optional description/notes) [source]

&112 - Teletext - / (1080 byte teletext data dump) [source: Ground Control !TTX and my own !Teletext]
&17F - VideoList - / (Video database file) [source: it's my program... ;-)]
&707 - DDF - ? (Impression(?) document description) [source is !OvnPro filter !TransDDF]
&810 - DrawLib - ? (DrawPlus library) [source is !DrawPlus]

[note: these two are in the Acorn Reserved range - is this anachronistic or still valid?]
&ADF - PDF - .pdf [source is !PDF]
&AE6 - MSWord - ? [source is !AntiWord & !TechWrite]

&B24 - OvPScrpt - ? (OvationPro C-like script) [source is !OvnPro]
&B25 - OvPDDL - ? (OvationPro document language) [source is !OvnPro]
&B26 - OvPStyle - ? (OvationPro stylesheet) [source is !OvnPro]
&B27 - OvnPro - (is .dpd but is it mapped in RISC OS?) [source is !OvnPro]
&BC5 - ImpDoc - ? (Impression single document file) [source is !OvnPro filter !TransIMP]
&C32 - RTF - .rtf (?) [source is !TechWrite]
&C46 - Tar / Unix_Tar - .tar (?) [source is !SAS (Unix_Tar) and !SparkFS (Tar)]
&CDC - OvnStyle - ? (Ovation style sheet) [source is !OvnPro]
&CDD - Ovation - ? (Ovation document) [source is !OvnPro]
&D00 - EasiPad - ? [source is !TechWrite]
&D01 - EasiDoc - ? [source is !TechWrite]
&FAF - HTML - .htm / .html [source is every RISC OS browser...]

IMHO these and similar entries will be attributable to publihsed RSs, e.g. software instruction books, magazine tutorials, readme files published as part of the software. As they're not attributed here ATM, then I think it'd be useful to seek to add such sources as and when they're confirmed. If anyone disputes the legitimacy of a listed filetype allocation then it can always be discussed here, and any spurious (future) inclusions can be removed and noted here too. I think WP:OR as applied to articles such as this serves to guard against an editor claiming that, e.g. &FF5 is a user frustration output file or whatever: clearly bollocks and no reliable source could be found to which such a claim could be attributed.
