message: This article seems to me to be rather biased, with a hostile tone and derogatory links hidden by inappropriate pipes; e.g., distribution and post analysis. ➥the Epopt 03:50, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

message: In the last couple of years, a lot has been written about NMCI by independent publications—like SIGNAL and Military Technology Information magazines—and I thought it would be a service to update the NMCI article on Wikipedia to include information from those articles.
There is still a debate over the extent to which EDS has succeeded in achieving all of NMCI’s stated goals, and I do not want to shortchange (let alone short-circuit) that debate.  I do, however, think that the debate is more even now, with many voices represented.
In the future, I think this article should be restructured to make it easier for people to find information about specific components of NMCI, for example, listing its basic functions (security, consolidation, application management, procurement, etc), the state of the Navy’s IT infrastructure prior to its commencement, and the steps taken to improve the network in chronological order.  Likewise, headings should be added for ease of navigation.
Does anyone have suggestions for additional topics I may have left out?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Passat123 (talk • contribs) 20:47, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Substantive changes and many references added 

message: Today I'm adding a new section to this article, incorporating (and expanding on) the criticisms of NMCI that an editor from 205.110.147.14 posted this week.  I am also working on a larger edit to this entry, breaking the text up into logical sections and working in criticism and contextualizing EDS' decisions—showing how EDS has tried to balance the needs and expectations of the end-users against the requirements of maintaining a highly secure and stable network and managing a robust set of applications.  Of course, I welcome any input on the discussion page and will try to incorporate all legitimate viewpoints into the next iteration of this article.

thread_title:  Adding a new section to highlight and contextualize criticism 

message: On June 11, an anonymous user from 138.162.140.54 added a banner to article questioning its neutrality.  I think the article adhere to NPOV, but is someone has suggestions for specific passages or even whole sections that should be improved, could they post them to this discussion page?  I’ve reached out to other editors and would like to fix the article and remove the banner.

replies: text: I can see where here coming from with the Neutrality banner the article reads a bit like an advertisment see WP:SPAM maybe a bit of a tweak here and there Jim Sweeney (talk) 17:31, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There is definitely a promotional tone to the piece.  As someone who fought against "Needlessly Making Computers Inefficient" for my last several years in the Navy, I'm probably not the right editor to fix it, though. Horologium (talk) 14:36, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

text: At the time of writing, the preface references a pair of paragraph-long quotes from Weller (it's never mentioned previously who Weller is; original unverified research being Weller is the officer who inherited responsibility for NMCI at a given time, and has since been moved to other work) xerxesbeat (talk) 05:24, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Question about Neutrality Banner 

message: The Naval Enterprise Networks (NEN) program office, in collaboration with NMCI partner HP, which manages the CoSC program, is deploying a number of new Navy initiatives, including:
 
Tablet laptops for Navy recruiters
* The NRC began rolling out Hewlett-Packard (HP) Elitebook 2740p Tablets to recruiters in early September 2011.
Hosted Virtual Desktop (HVD) capability
* Thin-client HVDs using network storage will replace bulkier traditional workstations.
Expanded support for smartcards
* Two-factor authentication using a SIPRNET smartcard token will be used to confirm the identity of NMCI users.
Enterprise-wide operating system upgrade and improved end user hardware delivery times
* New five-day seat deployment initiative aims to speed up the delivery time of new workstations.

message: This article needs to be updated with news about the NGEN contract which replaces COSC and went into effect during late 2014.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.18.214.219 (talk) 21:14, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  NGEN 

message: I hope not to cause any fuss by saying, bluntly...  Look, I know it probably made sense to who wrote this, but the page currently, literally says "[...] Weller said during [...]" without ever mentioning who Weller is.  Further research shows this is just copy-pasted from the article cited.  Okay, it might be obvious who Weller is, but this is an internationally public encyclopedia.....  aside from (barely) being plaigarism, if the USN needs a wiki, wikipedia uses mediawiki which is freely downloaded... :( xerxesbeat (talk) 17:23, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
