Frame synchronization (video) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Frame synchronization (video), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The initial entry in the page history says:

20:34, 10 March 2014‎ Guy Harris ... Move the stuff about video synchronization from Frame synchronization to here.

1) 6 years ago is not "recent".

2) Splitting frame synchronization to separate the stuff about frames in video from the stuff about frames in data communications is, technically, creating an article, but my contribution to the text of the article is pretty much zero.

Feel free to do anything you want with the article; I disclaim all responsibility for it. You can fight it out with User:Kvng, who was the person who undid the last move of this article to draftspace, if he undoes it again. Guy Harris (talk) 23:43, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

@Ethanpet113 and John B123: What is going on here? If you think an established article (Frame synchronization (video) was created in 2014) doesn't belong in the encyclopedia, you nominate it for deletion, you don't move it to draft space. Can you please undo this? ~Kvng (talk) 16:06, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

@Kvng: The page came up on the Special:NewPagesFeed as a new page. As is the norm for new page curation, an unreferenced article that is moved from draft is moved back there. I think the main point is being missed here, the article needs references, which is a fundamental requirement. --John B123 (talk) 17:12, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

John B123, OK, but can we agree that it's appearance on Special:NewPagesFeed was an error? ~Kvng (talk) 18:22, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Kvng, from the point of view the article wasn't a new page then agreed. Although called the "New Page Feed", it is actually a list of unreviewed pages. Changing a redirect to an article unsets the reviewed flag (and vice versa). I've no idea what the oldest article on WP is, but if you changed it to a redirect and then back to its original content it would appear on the "new article feed".

John B123, can you please move this back to mainspace? Feel free to AfD it from there if you have a good reason. ~Kvng (talk) 21:30, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Kvng, Moved back to mainspace and marked as reviewed so it won't appear in the NP feed. --John B123 (talk) 21:41, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

John B123, There are an awful lot of other unreferenced articles. We're not going to move these to draft space. ~Kvng (talk) 18:40, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Kvng, I'm certainly not going to, occasionally I will tag one with {{no references}} if I come across it but nothing more. It's only the new pages I move to draft if appropriate. --John B123 (talk) 18:54, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Intel 8088 Peripherals Section Chipset Changes

This is in regarding to the removal list of peripherals for compatible Intel chipsets at Intel 8088: Difference between revisions. Is this for these new Intel chipset support which not including these existing Intel chipset support? These existing chipset listed Intel 8088: Peripherals also listed at Intel 8085: MCS-85 family as well. They are both have compatible interface to each microprocessors. Rjluna2 (talk) 17:28, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

@Rjluna2: 1) Is there a need to list all chips that might happen to work with the 8088, or should the list be peripherals designed for the 8088? 2) If the answer to the first question is "yes", at least give a good reference. Guy Harris (talk) 17:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

You do have a good valid point. Rjluna2 (talk) 18:11, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
