thread_title:  101 Things to do with Microsoft Sam 

message: I don't understand why Microsoft Sam was deleted and now redirects here. I thought the Microsoft Sam page was absolutely fine. Now we have weird sections on this page with people pointing out that certain words sound funny, which really doesn't seem to fit well with the rest of the content.
I agree that getting a perfect arrangement of pages related to Microsoft Speech is a bit tricky, but this move seems counter-productive to me. Dave w74 02:24, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunately, User:Martinultima/101 Things To Do With Microsoft Sam has been first abandoned, then deleted. Especially because MS Sam is buggy and inferior to other TTS engines, its special shortcomings apparently touch people in different ways. As stated below, MS Sam and his humorous aspects have way more significance in culture than many other parts of Windows. Also, Sam obviously contains easter eggs (deliberate jokes) like the famous "crotch" (he can speak "botch" or "notch" perfectly). But whether these jokes are deliberate or not is not important, how these bugs (or not) are understood by the users is the point that justifies an entry in WP. WP is not only a technical encyclopedia. --213.39.222.75 (talk) 05:08, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why merge with Microsoft Sam??? 

message: No popular culture references for Microsoft SAM?
: I second that question. After deletion of the Microsoft Sam article, no reference to the great popularity of this (almost) useless part of XP is left. But Sam has actually a "career" on Youtube and many forums, reflecting the special humorous value of this TTS engine, which seems to be a noticeable part of "Windows folklore".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.39.155.59 (talk) 05:50, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What? 

message: Is it correct that MS Streets and Trips only adds the Anna voice to XP (no SAPI bump)?

thread_title:  Streets and trips adds Anna voice but stays SAPI 5.1? 

message: The link for "Microsoft site for SAPI 5" doesn't work anymore.  Anyone know the correct url?  I've been unable to find it.  --72.43.103.251 17:59, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Link 

message: The article contains the information: "Speech recognition support for 8 languages at release time: U.S. English, U.K. English, traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, Japanese, German, French and Spanish, with more language to be released later." Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese are two different ways of writing chinese characters and are not related to recognizing spoken language. Is this feature supposed to refer to speech synthesis instead of speech recognition?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.233.52.52 (talk) 22:53, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Speech Recognition versus Speech Synthesis 

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to  on Microsoft Speech API. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add  after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
*Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20071016060248/http://www.microsoft.com:80/speech/speech2007/default.mspx to http://www.microsoft.com/speech/speech2007/default.mspx
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at ).
