2018: Article observations

[edit]

Google Glass outdated?

[edit]

The mentions of Google Glass seems kind of outdated. There has been very little news in the past few years about Google Glass and I am not sure how relevant it is anymore. Maybe other similar type devices could also be added.-Joh2325 (talk) 03:22, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, but have not fixed it yet. Anyone? Sanderflight (talk) 21:27, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

2019: Law Enforcement

[edit]

In order to balance the different applications on this page (too much was about law enforcement), I added other applications and deleted a sizeable chunk of the text on law enforcement. This was reversed by User:Snooganssnoogans because pertinent info was dropped.Sanderflight (talk) 06:38, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The text you deleted included a review of the literature by Jennifer Doleac, as well as a 2018 analysis by the San Antonio Express-News of body-worn cameras in SA. Pertinent content like this needs to be added to the offshoot article if it is to be deleted from the main article. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 09:00, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If you have time, could you review the changes I made to body worn video (police equipment)? I added the articles you mentioned (and some other stuff that I thought was worth preserving) to the United States section under Results. Thanks.Sanderflight (talk) 13:39, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Doleac's review of the literature should also be added. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 13:53, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Did that and made a second attempt to trim the LE section. Comments and critique are welcome. Sanderflight (talk) 21:27, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 5 June 2020

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved: 1 as proposed, 2 to Police body camera. (closed by non-admin page mover) Mdaniels5757 (talk) 22:44, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]



– "Body camera" is the clear WP:COMMONNAME, receiving 2.8 million Google hits compared to 200,000 for "body worn video" and 750,000 for "body worn camera". Because Google results can be inaccurate, I also pulled Google News results for a random month (January 2019), and got 204 results for "body camera", 52 for "body worn video", and 135 for "body worn camera". (By the way, most of the hits have a hyphen in "body-worn" so that should be included even if BWV/BWC is preferred.)

Separately, the use of parenthetical disambiguation in Body worn video (police equipment) is incorrect, because "Body worn video" does not have a special meaning in the context of police equipment; it is simply a narrowing of the scope of the topic. This is why we have articles on Police brutality in the United States and Authenticity in art rather than Police brutality (United States) or Authenticity (art).

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

I wanted to add a bit more on the discussion on police body cameras specifically so I plan to add a paragraph on police discourse. I also want to add a few citations on the topic of police body cameras and a few sentences as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Twintalk21 (talkcontribs) 22:32, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
