5 November 2024

• 08:2308:23, 5 November 2024 diff hist 5,908 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing The contents for Microsoft Kin have been added. Next are Apple Lisa, Itanium, Windows Phone, and PCjr, the last of which I have just begun.

• 19:1019:10, 22 October 2024 diff hist 4,998 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing →JooJoo (2010): This item has been properly added. Now, there are six left to improve.

17 October 2024

• 23:5323:53, 17 October 2024 diff hist 4,024 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added the Commodore SX-64 and expanded the list with near-empty sections to bring the total number of items to 20. I will work on those later. I also divided the hardware into three categories. I have not returned to the Itanium, but I will get back to it in my next edit.

9 October 2024

• 17:2917:29, 9 October 2024 diff hist 1,886 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I expanded the TI-99/4 and HP TouchPad sections, as I said I would. Next is to look at Itanium.

7 October 2024

• 18:0818:08, 7 October 2024 diff hist 5,022 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added the Itanium and the HP TouchPad, both of which are incomplete due to my running out of time to finish them. I will work on those two and review the TI-99/4 entry in the next edit.

3 October 2024

• 19:0519:05, 3 October 2024 diff hist 4,754 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added Lotus Jazz and two maintenance templates. I will recheck the TI-99/4 entry later, as it was added in haste.

26 September 2024

• 21:4021:40, 26 September 2024 diff hist 3,543 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added the CueCat, updated the categories, and started grouping items under headers, starting with "Software".

• 15:5315:53, 26 September 2024 diff hist 6,198 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added Samsung Galaxy Note 7, cleaned up the article, and changed the lead to focus on computer-related products, as "technology" has a broad meaning that includes many things most of which are not related to computers..

21 September 2024

• 07:3807:38, 21 September 2024 diff hist 3,049 Temple Run General improvements, basic copyedits, and more categories. I had to improve the quality of sources substantially, and that tourists were disrupting a real temple was newsworthy, but is WP:UNDUE for this encyclopedia.

9 September 2024

• 06:0106:01, 9 September 2024 diff hist 4,063 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added Microsoft Bob and revised the inclusion criteria to account for the article title change. Almost certainly, they will need to be revised.

This list will include high-profile examples of software and gadgets, hopefully reaching 20 entries. Tag: New redirect

7 September 2024

• 09:1909:19, 7 September 2024 diff hist 240 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added the Coleco Adam, an infamous piece of junk, and I decided to remove the Barbie and Hot Wheels PCs due to the lack of negative in-depth reviews and with the understanding that they were not high-profile examples unlike the others. I will consider what to do about the Osborne Executive.

• 20:3820:38, 5 September 2024 diff hist 2,026 List of automobiles known for negative reception Undid revision 1244229832 by FreeMediaKid! (talk) Never mind, I realize there are rare exceptions to the criterion: "Exception may be made for automobiles on the market for less time than this." Nevertheless, my point that the section uses weasel words stands. Tag: Undo
• 20:3120:31, 5 September 2024 diff hist −2,026 List of automobiles known for negative reception Notwithstanding the weasel words involved, the Vinfast VF8 is not even five years old yet, failing one criterion for inclusion. It has been removed, as was the decade section. Tag: Reverted
• 20:2420:24, 5 September 2024 diff hist 1,966 Draft:List of commercial failures in computing I added the Macintosh Portable. I expanded the lead to clarify the criteria for inclusion, and in considering the criteria, I decided to remove the Amiga 600 for now, as the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it is not one of the worst computers, with not a single publication I am aware of calling it such. It was simply run-of-the-mill bad. The Osborne Executive will probably have to go due to the lack of negative reviews or "worst" lists, and the Barbie PC may have to go, too.

19 August 2024

• 21:0421:04, 19 August 2024 diff hist 1,846 Alien Breed 3D Expanded the Development, Reception, and Legacy sections. A to-do list left: research the game's engine, explain better the differences between AB3D and its 2D predecessors, consider the game's prerelease demos, and expand Gameplay and Plot.
• 17:2017:20, 19 August 2024 diff hist 460 Talk:Alien Breed 3D There are two articles by Amiga Addict, at least one of which directly discusses AB3D and could be used to improve this article, but they are both paywalled. Someone with access will have to edit it themselves or share scans with other editors in WP:RX style. current

15 August 2024

• 23:5723:57, 15 August 2024 diff hist 80 N AB3D Created a redirect to Alien Breed 3D from an initialism that was commonly used by the Amiga community and by developers of the game. current Tag: New redirect
• 23:5123:51, 15 August 2024 diff hist 77 m Alien Breed 3D Fixed a harv-error and slightly improved the shortened footnote format by using italitcs and separating other information with commas instead of full stops.
• 23:0523:05, 15 August 2024 diff hist 3,406 Alien Breed 3D I expanded the lead, the Gameplay and the Development sections, and also verified Plot. The bit about the Project Osiris levels being ported to Quake is probably WP:GAMECRUFT. Tag: harv-error

6 August 2024

• 22:2022:20, 6 August 2024 diff hist −4 Talk:Alien Breed 3D This article is evidently better than Start-class. It has been reassessed as C-class.
• 22:1922:19, 6 August 2024 diff hist 2,417 Alien Breed 3D Expanded Reception, improved the screenshot caption, and added another category. Now, the reviews in the scores table are all told in the prose. Also, consider WP:VG/RS.

5 August 2024

• 23:3123:31, 5 August 2024 diff hist 2,262 Alien Breed 3D Lead expansion, a screenshot, and sources pointing to a newsgroup for sales and a more precise release date. Fun fact: this is the first time on Wikipedia I have ever cited a Usenet newsgroup, let alone two.

27 July 2024

• 05:1505:15, 27 July 2024 diff hist 2 Individual Neutral Athletes at the 2024 Summer Olympics The paragraph about the Israel–Palestine thing should probably be moved to the Controversy section (it should at least be discussed there) and the section renamed to "Controversies".
• 04:2704:27, 27 July 2024 diff hist 740 Individual Neutral Athletes at the 2024 Summer Olympics I read some of the article for Reference #5, and The Hindu states the State of Israel was told to "take preventative measures to stop the genocide", which from a textualist point of view to me reads like "prevent the genocide from happening". I thought it prudent to clarify the allegations, providing relevant wikilinks. I also fixed the citation as it was a bare URL. Lastly, the article said nothing about double standards, so I added another source to back it up.
