I thought it would be interesting to cover techniques for dealing with obsolete semiconductors/ICs, as this does not seem to be mentioned on any existing pages. I think it would merit its own article, as others tend to focus on technical information or history, rather than practical methodology/solutions to problems which are common in many industries today. I thought it would be best to structure the article around various techniques available. Any thoughts? |

Ignition systems
Hi. I'd like some eyes at the Ignition system article. See Talk:Ignition system#Poorly sourced recent changes. The basic issue is the function of the capacitor across the breaker points. Some sources explain it is to prevent a break arc, but other editors use sources that emphase resonance/damped sinewaves. There was also a similar issue at Induction coil / Talk:Induction coil#Dubious. Glrx (talk) 23:24, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
One of your project's articles has been selected for improvement!
Hello, |
Can someone review this article? Someone recently rewrote the article and deleted a bunch of things, but now the article no only conforms to what a Wikipedia article should look like, and the putative name of the subject does not match the pagename. -- 65.94.171.217 (talk) 05:55, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
- Until someone contributes some usable references, I guess anything goes here. ~Kvng (talk) 14:53, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
- I've nominated it for deletion. I'm not turning up anything much in the way of sources. It doesn't help that there are several things called S-Bus and BusPro. I suspect the name change is an attempt to promote a product, but in any case, we can't tolerate a page that has a subject different from its title. So even if kept, the recent changes need to be reverted, or else the page renamed. SpinningSpark 01:05, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
Test engineer needs review and content editing
Please see Talk:Test engineer# Gibberish. Thnidu (talk) 22:48, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
- This seems to be the wrong title for such an article, since there are many types of test engineers, such as found in aeronautics, software, automotive industry, etc -- 65.94.171.217 (talk) 21:34, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
Redirect of CAD
Please comment at Talk:CAD#Requested move 31 October 2016 on whether computer-aided design should be the primary topic for CAD and hence redirected there. SpinningSpark 23:37, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
Möbius resistor
More eyes are needed on the recent major expansion of Möbius resistor. The article now claims that this component is, or has been, in use. See my comments at Talk:Möbius resistor#Factual accuracy. SpinningSpark 10:31, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Sources on Hakko
Hello fellow Wikipedians
I'm looking to write an article on Hakko, the Japanese company that makes the famous soldering equipment. I need independent sources to meet the criteria of notability, as I can't find anything reliable. And if anyone wants to collaborate on it, they're welcome. (I'm also posting to WP:WikiProject Japan to ask for sources in Japanese). —Hexafluoride Ping me if you need help, or post on my talk 16:39, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
Missing topics list
My list of missing topics related to electicity is updated - Skysmith (talk) 19:29, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
ElCompLib - guide
Thre is a guide to ElCompLib that suggests using 1mm or 2mm grid and 1mm connections. However, the SVG uses pixels, not millimeters. To make it worse pins were no longer aligned to the grid for some time.
I’ve re-aligned everything to the closest available grid (7px, with 3.5px thickness for connections), but this invalidates the guide. What would be the best way to solve the situation? --Wikimpan (talk) 16:27, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Request to add total sales to Huawei Honor 8 article
Hello, WikiProject Electronics. On behalf of Honor, I've submitted an edit request at Talk:Huawei Honor 8 to add the total sales volume to the article. I cannot edit the article directly because of my conflict of interest, but hope there is a project member here who may be willing to review and implement this simple request. I've suggested specific language, sourcing, and markup. Thanks for your consideration. Inkian Jason (talk) 17:02, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
- This edit request has been answered. I've posted two additional requests on the article's talk page, if anyone is willing to help. Inkian Jason (talk) 21:23, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
Requested move notice
Greetings! I have recently relisted a requested move discussion at Talk:Cannonlake#Requested move 10 February 2017, regarding a page relating to this WikiProject. Discussion and opinions are invited. Thanks, SkyWarrior 04:12, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
FYI, the MFD article at Multi-function display is up for deletion -- 70.51.200.162 (talk) 04:09, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
