Talk:Nuon (DVD technology)

message: It's pretty annoying how people keep removing the part where I posted that NUON stands for Nobody Understands Our Name. Dude, I used to read Next Gen when it was a mag worth reading. They said it THEMSELVES in an interview. I do not still have the issue, sorry. Though.... There's a slim chance it was also in Ultra Game Players. Those were the best mags around at the time. My point is that I ain't no stupid vandal and I will KEEP reinforcing the acronym. I WISH I had a citation but I no longer have the magazine. I checked!Utils
:Unfortunately, that's not how Wikipedia works.  Vague rememberences of something you might have read in a magazine a long time ago, is just not a reference.  Claiming somthing that's not supported by any VM Labs press release, their own website (which is still archived), faq, fansite, or by people who actually worked at the company, makes it grounds for removal.  Stating you'll keep adding it in, regardless of Wikipedia policy, is also grounds for disruptive editing and temporary blocking of your IP.  If you can find a reference that supports it, as Wikipedia requires, then you're more than welcome to add that (along with the reference citation) back in.  --Marty Goldberg 12:39, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

text: NUON never really meant Nobody Understands Our Name, though some of the staff would joke that's what it meant, another one was Never Underestimate Our Nuon. I worked on Freefall 3050 AD and talked to some of the guys there a bit and spent a few weeks in the VM Labs office, I didn't ask everyone, but those that I did, didn't know where the name came from and attributed it to some marketing people thinking up a scientific sounding name.

message: I will be working on numerous changes to this article. I will probably be done with it by tomorrow, but with that being said, please discuss anything you think should stay here. For now, I have only replaced and expanded the article, but I will be replacing a lot of what's on this page tomorrow. I just though I would open a discussion so I can get feedback from other people who may have some knowledge or good references for this console. AustralianPope (talk) 00:29, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

message: I went on the Ars Technica post referenced on this article several times, which directly contains a link in its body to a document titled "NUON Multi-Media Architecture, Aries 3 Specifications, Full OEM Version", by VM Labs. I assume that it is not possible to refer to that document based on copyright grounds, but would referring to the Ars Technica article instead be good enough?
I removed the outright untrue parts of the CPU specs on the article, but want to add to it, including details based on that specification. Would doing so be tolerated? AlphaLONE (talk) 14:01, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
