message: === Registry ===
Can an article about Windows Components be considered complete when, although referred to in context, there is no mention of the Registry as a component part of Windows? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.62.148.140 (talk) 16:10, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

message: As this article is growing people are deleting components from previous operating systems.
This should be split instead of deleted!
:I agree.  There should be pages such as List of Windows 95 components, List of Windows 98 components, List of Windows ME components, List of Windows 2000 components, List of Windows XP components, and List of Windows Vista components. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MichaelR.

replies: text: What does it violate? Their usage is not purely decorative. There is critical commentary for each and every component listed here. FUC does not list how long the commentary has to be! --soum talk 07:02, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Fair use criteria

message: :Image:Paint Vista.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title:  Bluetooth File Transfer 

message: According to https://ss64.com/nt/w32tm.html, 'The W32Time service is not a full-featured Network Time Protocol (NTP) solution that meets time-sensitive needs.', contrary to what is currently mentioned on the Wikipedia page. Other sources also make similar statements. From what I can gather, Windows Time satisfies most of the NTP requirements, meaning that it generally works well in most practical networked environments requiring a reasonable degree of time accuracy, even though it might not be completely compliant with NTP.
