Talk:Design process

message: Sorry, who appointed Dino Dini king of the world? He wrote some computer games in the 90s... I'm not sure why he needs a Wikipedia page devoted to his opinions on design. 89.241.52.16 03:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This isn't the Dino Dini page. This is a section of the design article that was moved from that article for some unexplained reason. Making this a separate smaller article draws even more attention to the name than it had in the design article.  There is a discussion on that talk page about Dino Dini. I assume the user who added it to that page, figured that the quotes from Dino Dini were relevant to the article and decided to give credit to the person who made that quote. Had the quotes been in print, users could have just referenced the document rather than mention Dino Dini in the paragraph; and it wouldn't have drawn so much attention to the person. My point here is that the relevance to the article is more about the quotes than the person who made the quotes. I think they are relevant quotes. However, if anyone knows of a better way to use the quotes without drawing as much attention to the person or leaving the quotes unattributed, we could try it.

Talk:Data Protection API

message: DPAPI has been around since Win2K (at least).  Obviously, the encryption available then was not the same as the encryption available now.  I think this means that Win11 will request encryption not available on Win2K, and that encryption done with Win11 won't work with decryption done with Win2K.  And I think encrypted keys are shared in Domain systems.  But I'm not seeing much explanation.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.243.156 (talk) 10:26, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

message: I've tagged this sentence - "As an example, weaknesses in the SHA1 hash function, which was created by the U.S. National Security Agency and certified by NIST, were only discovered in 2005, 12 years after the algorithm was published." - as "citation needed" - not because I don't believe it, but merely because it's an unverified statement for which I imagine there must be a good reference we could use.  I'd sure like more information on the analysis and fallout from this so that I could compare it to the CryptGenRandom concerns.--ParanoidMike 19:43, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

message: This entire page looks fishy. It smells like it has been vomited from Redmond, Washington. No offense to the people who edited this article previously, but it sounds so... unlike Wikipedia. I did try to look at it on http://wikiscanner.virgil.gr/ but I don't see any direct evidence of M$ doing the editing themselves. Perhaps just fanboys.

replies: text:  The lack of criticism or real summary of Rally is a little striking here, particularly compared to most other articles about Microsoft sources.  At the least, it results in an article that's less educational than it should be; at worst it's NPoV to the point of sounding like a Microsoft press release.  It doesn't help that the information is unnecessarily technical.  Just my opinion, but I don't think this is really a good article as is.  Gattsuru (talk) 21:50, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Galaksija BASIC

message: Voja Antonić himself states (on his web site) that he partially based Galaksija's Basic on Micr(o)soft Level 1 Basic:

Floating-point aritmetika i ciklusi preuzeti su iz Micrsoft-ovog Level 1 Basica, a ostatak je rezultat rada autora, pomognut aktivnim učešćem i sugestijama Dejana Ristanovića.

Talk:Microsoft Office Document Imaging

message: There seems to be an avoidance of the nearly possible, with the 'advertised' OCR capability in Ms Office XP.  The remarkably good dynamic (real-time only) 'handwriting recognition' (bound with the poor 'speech recognition'), seems unable to do the obvious (and in my experience) frequently needed task of OCR to convert an easily and frequently obtained image (BMP, PNG, ...) file of text into real text(TXT) file, for a multitude of purposes, such as space saving, indexing, editing, etc.
Is this a good place to discuss practical (for the typical home user) OCR, or at least place a reference to such a place?<BR>

thread_title:  MODI builtin OCR replacement wanted 

message: I believe this section titled "Alternatives to MODI for Office 2010 Users" is in violation of WP:NOTADVERT, WP:NOTHOWTO and WP:NOTLINKFARM. It advertises other products with external links and all, while Microsoft Office 2010 users do not need an alternative at all. OCR modules are moved into Microsoft Word itself and Windows versions that Office 2010 supports can all do the scanning by themselves. While we are at it, some alternatives have Wikipedia articles of their own. Why advertise external programs when we can use Wikilinks?
