• 07:2107:21, 9 January 2025 diff hist 292 Los Angeles fire Added Eaton Fire and Hurst Fire under January 2025 Southern California wildfires as well. Tagged {{Incomplete list}}; there's lots in Category:Wildfires in Los Angeles County, California that seems like it should belong, such as 1978 Agoura-Malibu firestorm, but I don't know the local place names well enough to say which are "Los Angeles" (sensu lato). current
• 07:0607:06, 9 January 2025 diff hist 24 Los Angeles fire Indented Palisades Fire (2025) under January 2025 Southern California wildfires, as it's one of them.
• 07:0407:04, 9 January 2025 diff hist −25 Griffith Park →Fires: Update hatnote link to current page name 1933 Griffith Park fire. Also use {{Further}} rather than the more generic {{See also}}. Not {{Main}} because that article doesn't cover the later fires. current
• 07:0107:01, 9 January 2025 diff hist 17 Los Angeles fire Linked both 1933 Griffith park fire and the general Griffith Park#Fires section

• 23:5223:52, 8 January 2025 diff hist 32 Companion matrix Wikilink "see below" current
• 16:4316:43, 8 January 2025 diff hist 3,239 Computation of cyclic redundancy checks →State-space transformation: New subsection. Pretty short, but it's cited, and I think it's the precursor to what the "Block-wise computation" subsection is actually talking about. current

• 22:2022:20, 7 January 2025 diff hist 712 46 BC MOS:BOLDREDIRECT "annus confusionis". Unlink second occurrence of "pre-Julian Roman calendar". Add details to citations. current
• 21:5121:51, 7 January 2025 diff hist 400 Help talk:Citation Style 1 →Requested move 4 January 2025: Silly idea. Tag: Disambiguation links added
• 10:1310:13, 7 January 2025 diff hist 720 COP400 →CPU registers: Clarify PC pre-increment explanation. There's no exception for control transfers.
• 05:5605:56, 7 January 2025 diff hist 80 COP400 →Instruction set: Correct description of LBI. The data sheet is extremely clear that Bd is loaded with d 9 and not its complement. ("to load the lower 4 bits of B (Bd) with the value 9 (1001₂), the lower 4 bits of the LBI instruction equal 8 (1000₂)." Correct confused conditions on JSRP and JP on ROM page 3. PC bit 6 is never part of the condition.
• 04:2804:28, 7 January 2025 diff hist 16 Vibrating structure gyroscope Tweak lead: "a gyroscope that uses a vibrating (as opposed to rotating) structure as its orientation reference." Yes, they're only suitable for rate (not absolute orientation) applications, but the point is that the plane of vibration is an orientation reference relative to which rotation is measured. rm MOS:PEACOCK word "breakthrough" current
• 04:1404:14, 7 January 2025 diff hist 971 COP8 Update infobox to describe instruction cycle time; the input 10x clock is an implementation detail not suited for a summary infobox. Explain the mess in text: 10 MHz input clock, doubled (some models) to 20 MHz master clock, divided to 2 MHz instruction cycle. Also relevant is 0 Hz minimum clock rate (static design tolerates stopped clock). current

• 18:2518:25, 6 January 2025 diff hist −1 COP8 →Instruction set: Trivial typo fix. Thank you, User:RastaKins for that braino fix! If you have any better ideas, I'd love to narrow that column heading, as it's a lot wider than the numbers in it. Ever since WP changed skins, the margins have been wider and the main text column narrower, messing up a lot of tables.
• 17:2917:29, 6 January 2025 diff hist −5 Sulfafurazole Give more concise organic SMILES form. "c1cnoc1" rather than "C1=CON=C1" and "c2ccccc2" rather than "C2=CC=CC=C2". current
• 12:0112:01, 6 January 2025 diff hist 24 Plus–minus sign →Encodings: Rm indefinite article "a" before plural "representations". Add ± form.
• 10:3510:35, 6 January 2025 diff hist 96 COP8 →Instruction set: Add more section headings, group load/exchange instructions. tweaks to reduce width
• 05:5305:53, 6 January 2025 diff hist 764 COP8 →Instruction set: Convert table footnotes to {{efn}} system. Rework description of the DIR prefix.
• 03:3203:32, 6 January 2025 diff hist 0 Sulfadimethoxine →Pharmacokinetics: Fix missing word "to" in "they are unable to acetylate sulfonamides" Also convert a parenthetical comment to a separate sentence current
• 03:2803:28, 6 January 2025 diff hist 29 Folate Wikilink "essential nutrient", not just "essential nutrient".

• 21:1521:15, 5 January 2025 diff hist −433 Trigoniulus corallinus Convert '''manually bolded''' headings to actual ==Section headings==. Merge duplicate refs. current
• 18:3118:31, 5 January 2025 diff hist 241 Hitachi 6309 →External links: Add Burke book. It seems a good source. current
• 18:3118:31, 5 January 2025 diff hist 310 Hitachi 6309 →Process technology: Give min frequency with datasheet ref. Rm statement about "it does not have to constantly refresh its internal state" which conflicts with dynamic logic claim. {{cn}} on statement about pause.

4 January 2025

• 20:0920:09, 4 January 2025 diff hist 8 Computation of cyclic redundancy checks →Byte-Slicing using multiple tables: Fix section link to renamed section. (WTF? "Your edit includes new external links"? It does NOT include new external links.)
• 17:0817:08, 4 January 2025 diff hist −43 List of Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches →2025: Use {{cite tweet}} to cite twitter posts.
• 16:3916:39, 4 January 2025 diff hist −36 Computation of cyclic redundancy checks →Multi-bit computation using lookup tables: Reordered bits to move all description of CRC-32 to the →CRC-32 example: subsection, and some test to the start of the section, before the first subsection.
• 11:1411:14, 4 January 2025 diff hist 1,667 PIC microcontrollers →Clones: Resurrect old subsection on Hycon PIC18 clones (deleted by Special:Diff/802192981 in 2017 for no obvious reason) to fix broken link on H8 disambiguation page. Reference URLs refreshed. current
• 10:4810:48, 4 January 2025 diff hist 5,363 PIC instruction listings →Hycon clones (16 bit): New section. current
• 04:0904:09, 4 January 2025 diff hist 1 Carry flag →Vs. borrow flag: Typo fix. ft: "<codr>" -> "<code>" current
• 00:0200:02, 4 January 2025 diff hist 196 Carry flag →Vs. borrow flag: Fixed "and but". Adjusted "most common" wording.

3 January 2025

• 21:1921:19, 3 January 2025 diff hist 20 Carry flag →Vs. borrow flag: Forgot to add Clipper mnemonic to list when adding processor.
• 21:0621:06, 3 January 2025 diff hist 2,128 Carry flag →Vs. borrow flag: Add a few more processors to the list, document the Motorola 6809 weirdness ("subtract with borrow" is abbreviated "SBC") and add a comment with an ASCII-art table of the various combinations.
• 19:5619:56, 3 January 2025 diff hist 19 COP8 →Control transfers: Wikilink ft "carry and half-carry flags" -> "carry and half-carry flags"
• 08:5908:59, 3 January 2025 diff hist 90 COP8 →Control transfers: Moved description of RETSK to just after discussion of skip instructions, without IFBNE intervening.
• 08:4508:45, 3 January 2025 diff hist 0 COP8 →Control transfers: Typo fix. ft: "has reaches" -> "has reached"
• 08:4108:41, 3 January 2025 diff hist 1,299 Computation of cyclic redundancy checks →Multi-bit computation: Section was getting long, so broke into →Multi-bit computation using lookup tables: and →Multi-bit computation without lookup tables
• 08:0308:03, 3 January 2025 diff hist 635 Parity flag Mention intended use for serial communication, and gave a non-x86 (8051) example. This is the reason it's was in the 8086: to mke it easier to port 8080 code, which was compatible with 8008 code, which was compatible with the Datapoint 2200 serial terminal. current
• 07:3107:31, 3 January 2025 diff hist 127 Serial communication →Examples of architectures: S/PDIF is a moderately familiar example. current

1 January 2025

• 20:5520:55, 1 January 2025 diff hist 544 Tick–tock model Rephrase lead to explain "tick" first. This is definitely a judgement call, as it's easier to explain the tock first, but I think it's easier to *read* with the tick first. Also re-group sentences in "History" section to associate Devil's Canyon "tock refresh" with the three-step P-A-O model, and made the four steps at 14 nm (to which I added years) its own paragraph. current
• 20:1820:18, 1 January 2025 diff hist 143 Broadwell (microarchitecture) →Instruction set extensions: Fixed dead link with archived copy (in an unusual place); mentioned that new instructions in a "tick" is unusual. current

• 16:1516:15, 31 December 2024 diff hist 753 SpaceX Raptor →Raptor 3: Mustn't forget the whole "partially assembled engine" thing. Hopefully I got the right encyclopedic tone with "The reduction in externally visible components is so extreme that initial pictures were accused of being incomplete."
• 15:1315:13, 31 December 2024 diff hist 348 SpaceX Raptor →Raptor 3: Per recent Elon tweet, Raptor 3 performance target appears to have been scaled back to 300 tf.
• 15:1215:12, 31 December 2024 diff hist −95 SpaceX Raptor →Comparison to other engines: Correct thrust of RVac. Unless throat diameter or chamber pressure is reduced, propellant flow rate is the same, so thrust scales with Isp. Also change over from {{convert|abbr=on}} to {{cvt}}. No corresponding adjustment to T/W as I don't know where that's from.
• 14:3514:35, 31 December 2024 diff hist 22 SpaceX Raptor →Raptor Vacuum: Clarified that there's one RVac per version; vacuum-ness is orthogonal to version.

• 19:3519:35, 30 December 2024 diff hist 919 Triangular array →Indexing: New section briefly (one paragraph) describing memory addressing techniques. current
• 15:3615:36, 30 December 2024 diff hist −523 Lucas pseudoprime →Implementing a Lucas probable prime test: Integrate computation of Q^k better into the explanation; this reduces the number of special-case explanations. Try to avoid addressing footnotes in the main text: use "X is true[footnote:section]" rather than "X is shown in [section] of [footnote]. MOS:NOTE cleanups. current
• 01:2801:28, 30 December 2024 diff hist 50 Quadratic sieve →One large prime: Use multiplication dots, not asterisks. current
• 01:2301:23, 30 December 2024 diff hist 0 Quadratic sieve →More large primes: Use emdashes rather than spaced hyphens.
• 01:1701:17, 30 December 2024 diff hist 50 Quadratic sieve →Data collection: Prettied up alignment table; used ± to show how two square roots contribute.
