Please make sure to include an edit summary with every single edit. The summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Yes, I know that writing edit summaries is annoying; but that's nothing compared to the annoyingness of reading article histories when some edit summaries are missing. :) For many non-controversial edits, a very-simple edit summary like "+." or "Copyediting." is all you need to provide. And you don't have to come up with a new edit summary for every single edit: for example, if you do multiple edits which all just add text to an article you're writing, then you can use "+." for all of those edits. By the way, IIRC if you don't provide an edit summary before clicking "Save page", then MediaWiki doesn't save the edit right away. Instead, it prompts you to provide an edit summary. Do you really click "Save page" twice for every edit simply in order to avoid having to write an edit summary? If you reply to this message, please move it to my talk page, then reply there; I can do the same if I reply in turn. Thanks! Cheers, —Unforgettableid (talk) 05:26, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

In this edit you described my contributions as undoing your streamlining. This was neither the intent nor the effect of what I did; I added content in a meaningful and appropriate way. I have taken particular care to organize information by topic so as to ease readability; my edits reflect that desire. Please assume good faith on the part of other editors. The reason I add (and then re-added) the content is because it was valuable and relevant. Please do not remove content that contributes to an encyclopedic understanding of the subject. I am happy to reword phrases that may be unclear, but I am not okay with mass removal of content. Thank you. CaseyPenk (talk) 18:25, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

You recently removed the "marketed as LTE Max" Note from Roger's AWS1700 deployment, noting that this name is only used in reference to Roger's 2600 deployment. This is in conflict with a cited reference for these two deployments. Please take another look there. Are you definitely sure about your point of view? If it turns out that it is not really clear at all, we might consider simply removing the "LTE Max" note at all.

Lead for articles on HTC devicesHey ViperSnake, for the lead sentence used in articles on HTC devices, can you use "designed and manufactured by HTC." rather than "developed by the Taiwanese manufacturer HTC".

The RTM case of Windows 8.1Hi, Viper How do you do? I thought maybe I should talk to you about the coverage of RTM in Windows 8 article. What you wrote is the perspective of certain magazine editors who are not being entirely neutral. They are trying to make it a case that this "secrecy" thing is dedicated and new to Windows 8.1. However, there are things that they didn't say but you can still find them in sources. First, Microsoft dropped TechNet Plus two month ago and changed its policy about what's available to who. Second, remembering that 8.1 is effectively a free service pack, you see that Microsoft is not doing anything out of ordinary. Back then, Microsoft issued a "release candidate" to manufacturers and there was not RTM or GA; only RTW. Names are certainly changed, yes: Service pack → 8.1; RC → RTM; RTW → GA/launch. But the essence is the same. In general, I think the current coverage is WP:UNDUE. What do you think? Best regards,
Re: Wait actually...The disc images? Oh, yeah... I remember now. That's true. I was too focused on the package the we used to deploy through Active Directory / Group Policy. Firefox, WP:LEADIMAGE and WindowsThere is nothing in the guideline for LEADIMAGE that states that the image must be in Windows so please stop replacing a perfectly good image with one that's in Windows. It was discussed on that article's talk page and the consensus was that the first image should be kept regardless of OS because the minor differences between the images would not sufficiently detract and the OS does not the spirit of the guideline. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:49, 5 September 2013 (UTC)  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Firefox. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Sorry about the last one. Lost count. Just a reminder. WP:BRD Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:28, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

The quality is a bit poor and unclear, but at least it's not taken from a weird angle. - M0rphzone (talk) 02:29, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
Update regarding your comments about the image change: personal preference isn't a good argument for using the diagonal view shot. For products such as smartphones, a straight-up image of the HTC One showing more detail is more effective than a farther away, lower resolution diagonal view with light reflections and and an extraneous background. If readers want to see the thickness, they will be able to see it on the back view shot. I don't think there's a valid reason not to use the updated image. Infobox images are supposed to be clear and specific, and accurately portray the article topic. That's what the new image does (or is supposed to do). - M0rphzone (talk) 04:51, 9 September 2013 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for September 7Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.

Peer review for HTC One articleHey ViperSnake, the peer review page for the HTC One article says it's been reviewed/closed, but I don't think any editor ever reviewed the article. Do you want to open it/request again for a new review of the current article? It should help improve the article for another FA nomination. - M0rphzone (talk) 05:35, 12 September 2013 (UTC) iOS duplicationI definitely support your attempt to remove duplicated iOS information from the iPhone 5s article. I think this duplication needs to be eliminated from each iPhone model article. Each article is setting a ridiculous precedent for the next. I'm thinking the best place to go to get consensus for this is probably WikiProject Apple. What do you think? - Josh (talk | contribs) 23:49, 12 September 2013 (UTC) DYK for Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I already blacked out the screen on the keyboard one, but I could also black out the screen on the other, depending on which one is more relevant/beneficial to the article. And I think you may have nominated for FAC a bit too early :/ ...the article is still mostly incomplete, since we can add a section covering network availability, expand the commercial reception section, add a design phase section, and add a lot more about the software and hardware features. - M0rphzone (talk) 15:16, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
About PC+ and Post-PC era
Hello Viper I hope I didn't catch you in a bad time but I am afraid I do not really think moving Metro (design language) to Microsoft design language is a good idea. I do not believe "Microsoft design language" has become WP:COMMONNAME. This is exactly the reason for which previous rename requests met with not much support. That said, I have no prejudice against a discussion. I have said before and I say it again: You often make good editing decision and if the result of a discussion is a consensus to move, I'll put it on the account of your good judgment.
