message: I know CCITT is now ITU, but shouldn't and article or at least a redirect be availably?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.52.153.198 (talk) 19:54, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  CCITT 

message: Yes, media compression is a prominent subject, but to a reader new to ITU-T doesn't this large box give the impression that it's what ITU is all about? Behind The Wall Of Sleep 09:30, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Multimedia compression box

message: What does the -T in ITU-T stand for? Is this Telecommunications (i.e. their scope, even if tautological) or is it some translation of Standardization (i.e. their function) that I can't spot?

replies: text: It's short for Telecommunication Standardization Sector. ITU is divided into three sectors: ITU-T, ITU-R (Radiocommunication Sector) and ITU-D (Telecommunication Development Sector). BertK 08:03, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Naming trivia

message: I have reverted two edits that dump a whole block of recommendation titles, with no Wikipedia linking, into the article.
I don't think this improves the article (the recommendation list is already disproportionately long), or its usefulness. The recommendations listed are almost all about stuff that Wikipedia already has articles about (or components, such as the various X.500 pieces).
If lists of all ITU-T recommendation titles are desirable, I think they should be separate from the main article. --Alvestrand 18:14, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If lists of all ITU-T recommendation titles are desirable, one of them can be found at http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/publications/recs.html. Guy Harris 18:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.   I think that the article is poor at the moment because of all these lists.   IMHO it's not the best way to present the subject in an encyclopaedic way.   I'd suggest perhaps maintaining only a list of Recommendation categories (although perhaps even that could go!) and simply add the link to the Recs.  By way of example, the corresponding article on ITU-R does not include a list of ITU-R Recs. MarkPos 19:43, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think having a path of only a few steps from the Wikipedia article on the ITU-T to the Wikipedia articles on the technologies it standardizes is a Good Thing, and the ITU official lists don't link to Wikipedia. But I wouldn't worry much if there was one more link to traverse. --Alvestrand 20:12, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point.   In this case I agree with your original suggestion to put the lists of Recs in a separate page, linked off of the main ITU-T article, so that it makes the base article much more accessible and readable. MarkPos 20:21, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Inclusion of full lists of recommendations into article 

message: I was wondering if anyone could clarify what the ITU's (or ITU-T's) role in the major achievements is, or why those things are considered the ITU's achievements--190.74.125.219 (talk) 00:12, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point. The paragraph “Key achievements of ITU” has been changed to “Key standards published by ITU” in purpose to clarify that items in the list are standards published by ITU. The development of these have in a some cases been done in collaboration with other standard bodies, i.e. ISO and IEC. Existing articles (hyperlinks from the list) give in general information on this. ITU-T 11:26, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Whose key achievements?

message: Wikipedia (as well as most other websites in the internet) lists 26 classes of Recommendations but the official website http://www.itu.int/itu-t/recommendations/index.aspx has only 23 (B, C, W seem to dropped). I don't know what happended to them... 84.119.30.162 (talk) 15:18, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of Recommendations not up-to-date 

message: There was discussion above of removing these, with a consensus I think that it be done, but it never was. I have removed these (I agree BTW they add nothing to the article, and can be discovered at ITU's sites). Alexbrn (talk) 13:45, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lists of recommendations 

message: It would be useful with a listing and timeline of editions of the CCITT and ITU-T recommendations. I remember that the Yellow Book was the current one in the early 80's, and I think the Red Book was published in 1984. The article on X.400 mentions the Red Book without mentioning CCITT or ITU-T. I'm not sure if the cover color is used as the publication nickname any longer, but it certainly is for some editions.  --HelgeStenstrom (talk) 09:17, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Yellow Book, Red Book, Blue Book, etc. 

message: Why does recommendations need to be capitalised? Wouldn't the context it is in be enough? Why does this article need to read as legalese?  --Mortense (talk) 18:59, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Capitalisation of recommendations 

message: Why is subsection "ITU-T" here at all? It looks like someone has used this talk page as a sandbox. --Mortense (talk) 19:07, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
