March 2010 - updated page to reflect the retail release of MS3.

Question regarding previous edit - the 302w FAQ appears misleadingly labelled to me. I'm sure it may be useful to 302w users, but the link name on the main page makes it look like a general Megasquirt FAQ which it is not. Removing it again. 80.176.88.36 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:22, 23 March 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Notability

[edit]

I'm having trouble with the notability side of the article; all the references point to MS originated pages. Is it correct that this does not meet the notability guidelines? AndyWyatt2 (talk) 06:25, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your talk page doesn't seem to exist? What other sources would you like to see 80.176.88.36 (talk) 01:14, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]


https://www.bonanza.com/listings/MS3PRO-Ultimate-Megasquirt-Programable-Standalone-Ecu/542383165 Thank you, but the DIYEFI aren't independent as this is where MegaSquirt came from. The resellers also aren't independent from the subject for obvious commercial reasons, and I don't believe forum content is a reliable second source. Refer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources:

"Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published, then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason self-published media—whether books, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, blogs, personal pages on social networking sites, Internet forum postings, or tweets—are largely not acceptable."

I'm quite new to Wiki in terms of the guidelines so I'm just trying to work out the problem is my interpretation of notability, the article or the topic itself.

Here's another one: http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/articles/megacapable/ Or go out and buy HotRod magazine from a few years back where a Megasquirt powered car (Parish's Fairmont) won one of their "Drag Week" classes. regards 80.176.88.36 (talk) 17:31, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reads Like an advert?

[edit]

So, another "drive by tagging". Is that the consensus? Does anyone have suggestions on how to re-write or re-word that opening section?

For clarity, I declare an interest. I am an active developer of the Megasquirt ECU and would like more neutral parties to maintain this page. James Murray 80.176.88.36 (talk) 18:30, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As nobody else stepped up, I re-did the first paragraph - it is now very brief but should not be contentious or read like an advert. I removed the "advert" tag. 80.176.88.36 (talk) 17:50, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

MC68332 is 32 bit

[edit]

I undid the edit claiming that the MC68332 is an 8 bit processor. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freescale_683XX or http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MC68332 for evidence that it is a 32bit CPU 80.176.88.36 (talk) 19:49, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
