message: Shouldn't we include things like myspace and facebook because it has so far had decent amount of impact on society to be included in this article. -Pro66 21:33, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I suggest merging Technology of the 2000s into this page, as they seem to be about the same thing. When I searched for a page on Technology of the 2000s I found that, but meant to find this. And this page seems to be consistent with the set up of "technology in the..." for other decades, such as 1990s in technology & science and 1970s in technology. Hm, okay, admittedly the uniformity I was hoping for seems to be lacking... but that can be fixed. - A.J. (talk) 22:13, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger proposal 

message: A lot of recent things are missing from this article. Specifically the finding of certain missing links and a very large atom smasher in Sweden. I also remember that in the recent months there have been a lot of recent findings in space and about our planet. I'm no science guy so I don't follow these things closely..so just do what you guys feel. Just suggesting here.Rgoodermote  17:50, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Update 

message: I do not believe Wikipedia should take a stance on this issue. We do not exist to tell people what manner of sexual behaviour is appropriate, nor do we have any authority to tell people when they should engage in such pursuits. Hence I have removed a negative inference wherein "sexting" was cited as a negative social implication. Please answer here before reverting (and allow me to answer that), if you deem that necessary. Also note that the same edit contained some copy-editing, and should not be undone wholesale, should such an action be deemed necessary.

replies: text: The behaviour that was being referred to, at least, given enough nudity, is illegal almost everywhere under child pornography statutes, I believe. Even in jurisdictions where proposals have been made to treat sexting by minors as a lesser offense (and I don't understand how this is supposed to interface with child porn laws), it is still supposed to be treated as a criminal offence. I don't see anyone except you, and possibly the perpetrators of these crimes and their relatives, arguing that they should be allowed.--greenrd (talk) 20:12, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

text: I take back what I just wrote. From reading sexting, I've learned that a New York politician has proposed allowing it for minors under certain circumstances, so you are right - it is a disputed area. I was not aware of this.--greenrd (talk) 20:24, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Sexting". 

message: This page should not depend on a rather small group of Wikipedia authors that decide what technologies that are worth mentioning here and which are not, based on our private preferences and rather narrow interests. We should be more systematic. The starting point is to find good sources and good criteria. Are there any scientific prize to look at? Some journal or book that on a regular basis identifies the most important advanced that were made within quite wide areas. Some trend analysis and prognoses company identifying the most topical buzzwords in science and technology papers? Some lists of scientific papers with highest citation indices? Some futurology researcher that systematically makes prognoses for the future? Etc. Any concrete suggestions? Mange01 (talk) 23:52, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

message: It took me some time to become sure that this article is about a decade (rather than about a centennium or millennium). Could we make that explicit in the first sentence? ... in the 2000s (the decade). How can this be expressed less awkwardly? --Ettrig (talk) 07:48, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
