Talk:Features of the Opera web browser

message: I think there´s an issue with the neutrality, since the article does not present any criticism and really sounds like an ad. I added the advert template, but if you disagree, feel free to discuss. --Alvatov (talk) 19:25, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I really disagree with you on this article sounding like an ad, but I will overhaul it tomorrow and add some criticism. --Andylee Sato (talk) 00:09, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I did look over the whole article deleting and reformulating a lot of very favourable parts so they sound more objective and neutral and also updated some contents.... hope this is enough to get rid of the ad-brick. --Andylee Sato (talk) 09:28, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It still had a lot of positive words. I have overhauled the article completely and this shouldn't be an issue anymore. --Rafaelluik (talk) 16:28, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Neutrality

message: As a listing of features can get extensive and long, it's better to have this page seperate from the Opera (Internet suite) page.  On the Talk:Opera_(internet_suite) page of that page, I proposed a more logical structure for the listing of features.  But it's a lot of stuff.  And needs a whole lot of cleanup.
:I've started the process by shortening the entries on the main Opera page, and leaving more details on this page. --Applesanity 10:11, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposal for Organizational Structure

message: A suggestion - since this page has grown considerably since the original tagline was written. I think it needs to mention "panels," and the tools that come with it, as well as Opera's security and customization features. Of course, this may be asking to much out of a couple of sentences. I'm not too good at writing these things. Applesanity 18:50, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree (on both counts): panels are one of the few ways that I have experienced that O has had for a while yet hasn't spread to other browsers. Arguably Moz's lot have their sidebars & IE has...something incredibly similar; Panels certainly appear to be much more flexible and have more obvious capabilities, and a more in-depth UI as a result. Go panels! :D _> MonstaPro:Talk 14:42, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fixing the Tagline 

message: Under Download Manager the Page says
 Since: Opera 9 (2000) - BitTorrent support
This makes no sense since the version of Opera in 2000 wasn't version 9. Kc4 00:08, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Date Issue

message: I have been making minor edits to the Tor (anonymity network) article, where it mentions that O can come preconfigured for and bundled with Tor and its (sort of) self-establishing proxy Privoxy. Since not all browsers are SOCKS compatible, which is required to use Tor, I thought that this item could be added to The List... I am very available for comments/suggestions/reasons-why-I-shouldn't've-said-this/(etc) on this item _> MonstaPro:Talk 14:35, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The article doesn't mention anything newer than 9.2, and the screenshots have become visibly dated with the release of version 9.5.

thread_title:  Opera Turbo 

message: Since Opera has many features, I think it was sensible to create the page "Features of the Opera web browser" to avoid making the page about Opera too long.
The problem is, the information on the Features of the Opera web browser page is outdated and written like an advertisement.  Yes, Opera has great features and these deserve praise, but not on Wikipedia, as the rules insist articles are written from "a neutral point of view".
The page needs updating also, as it fails to mention that Opera has a spell checker for instance. TurboForce (talk) 13:24, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Out of date and badly written 

message: If nobody requests to keep it, I will delete the part on the security chapter talking about secunia. This is because those numbers are always just a temporary screenshot of the current situation and can change dramatically when a new version of a browser comes available and therefore don't provide any objective view on the subject of security.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andylee Sato (talk • contribs) 09:30, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

message: The section about Widgets under Customization looks like it was copy-pasted straight from a tutorial! I would rewrite it myself, but not being an Opera user, I don't have a clue. --92.8.182.216 (talk) 21:00, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, it looks like it was written especially for this article (as there are no other google results). However I agree it's not fitting of an encyclopedia article, and would support the motion to remove it (again). I would point out that a double-revert without a talk section even being created is very poor behaviour, documented in WP:EW —WOFall (talk) 23:01, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I was about to write here that it looks insane and need a rework. :P There are great simple pages of programming languages with Hello World examples that could fit the Wikipedia way. --Rafaelluik (talk) 16:53, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Widget Section 

message: Wait, what should we do for Opera 15? Many features aren't present anymore and I've already edited the Speed Dial section to include the changes in this new version. A user edited the top of the article to say these features are only pre-15.0 so that's a problem. --Rafaelluik (talk) 12:24, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: This is quite a problem. As long as 12.x is still being "supported", it might be useful to leave the page referring to Opera 12 except where noted otherwise. In the long run, I think we'll need to remove most of the page, and start building it up again as Opera picks up features. There's probably quite a bit of work in all this though. For now, perhaps we should have a seperate section for Opera 15+? —WOFall (talk) 05:47, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I have an idea. I'll split the page in  two big sections. The first will describe the features as they are available in Opera 15 and up and the second will contain the features only available in past versions. --Rafaelluik (talk) 12:20, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Opera 15 

message: I still use Opera 10.60. I have tried later versions and found them unsatisfactory.
•Newer versions cannot display multi- page articles.
•Newer versions cannot tolerate multiple instances of Opera running simultaneously.
•Newer version always try to update on start. This feature cannot be turned off (there is a setting to turn it off, but it does not work).
Opera developers have come under the negative influence of inferior browsers such as Chrome and Firefox. Opera has been essentially ruined --- at least, judging from the most recent versions I have tried. ---Dagme (talk) 16:15, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
