Communication modes
editIEEE 802 states:
The basic communications capabilities provided by all IEEE 802 standards are frame-based with source and destination addressing and asynchronous timing. In a frame-based system, the format is a variable-length sequence of data octets. By contrast, cell-based communication transmits data in fixed-length units in specified time intervals while isochronous communication transmits data as a steady stream of octets, or groups of octets, at equal time intervals.
Do we have entries that pertain to cell-based systems? Tule-hog (talk) 18:50, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Asynchronous Transfer Mode is the most obvious instance. ~Kvng (talk) 16:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
Help with article
editHello from WP:URA! The article Dialer needs quite a lot of help, and I don't really have the knowledge to find appropriate sources for this specific article. Any help you can offer would be much appreciated. Thanks! JarJarInks (talk) 14:22, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
This article needs help. It's been unsourced almost 15 years. It's incomprehensible to a layperson. Please source it and "dumb it down", or nominate it for deletion. Thank you. Bearian (talk) 05:51, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Bearian, thanks for bringing this to our attention. Deletion is not usually a good option for articles needing improvement. See WP:NOTCLEANUP and WP:TNT. ~Kvng (talk) 15:27, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
- Got it. Bearian (talk) 17:27, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
This stub has been unsourced for 15 years, and is so out of date that it makes me feel 100 years old. Can someone help me get this sourced? Bearian (talk) 01:30, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Bearian I'll take a look. JarJarInksTones essay 20:05, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

Luxury phones
editI've created a draft article for luxury phones and would really appreciate some help on it, as the term is important but nebulous. Thanks in advance! JarJarInksTones essay 20:04, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
