Communications[edit]

Thanks for compiling this list. I scanned through the sublist of communications entries, and have created some redirects where appropriate. Here is a list of entries that should be removed from the list. Comments included. Cheers, Nageh (talk) 20:44, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Adaptive communication system - this is a very vague term; it may refer to adaptive modulation and coding
  2. AVS plugin effect - no need for separate article from Advanced Visualization Studio (AVS)
  3. Cardioid pattern - explained in cardioid
  4. Communication patterns - too general a term
  5. Communications modulation - this refers to modulation, and is usually referred to using this single term
  6. Morse code receiver - no need for this separate article from Morse code
  7. Telecom software - too vague on one hand, ambigous on the other (there is a company called Telecom)
  8. Telecommunications devise - typo (remove)

Communication terms:

  1. Antenna subsystem - not a technical specification
  2. Barrier signal - are you sure this is not Carrier signal?
  3. Low-frequency - no need, have frequency
  4. Radio-frequency amplifier - too specific, have electronic amplifier
  5. Radio-frequency impedance measurements - much too specific
  6. Raging bull message - this sounds like a spammy entry; any idea?
  7. Receiver incremental tuning - no need, have tuner (radio)
  8. Reception station - not a technical specification

Radio:

  1. Multiplex operation - no need, have multiplexing and multiplex as a dab; multiplexing is the term commonly used
  2. Single-sidebound transmission? - shouldn't this be single-sideband transmission?
  3. Transmission loss - no need, nothing specific here
  4. Video frequency - frequency of the video signal, no need for separate article

Television:

  1. Digital television technology - no need, have digital television
  2. Video-disc - don't see why anybody would write that with a dash; we don't have compact-disc as well

PS: How old was the reference book for these terms? An amateur radio handbook, maybe? ;)

  • Actually, the sources included latest McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Engineering and number of similar offline books. I tried to avoid typos but there obviously are those. - Skysmith (talk) 11:19, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's fine. I think those sources always lag behind a little bit. Anyway, it's awesome enough that you have compiled this list. Nageh (talk) 19:09, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Robotics missing articles[edit]

Hi

Nice list - it may be that the spellings are relevent

For example you searched for Cartesian-coordinate robot but the article is at [[Cartesian coordinate robot]. The same is true for some others such as Spherical robot

If you are still actively pursuing these topics let me know and I will go through them more thoroughly :¬)
