Evaluation

I found the first coverage of the transition that seemed balanced toward positives rather than negatives. That makes the post-June 12 additions a little more balanced. For now, obviously, the section is unbalanced. I'm just waiting for actual evaluations of how the transition went.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 17:25, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added a new report of stats. TomCat4680 (talk) 02:15, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Can we wait and do stats until they are part of a larger evaluation? Right now any statistics in this section looks strange. I put the same information under "Initial problems" as a follow-up to previous information. Later maybe we can move that down below, if we're making it part of something bigger.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 17:26, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Actually the FCC wants to officially evaluate the transition themselves. Story here. TomCat4680 (talk) 18:21, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you've got the information go ahead and add it.
Then when there are results we can add those.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:38, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Or I could do it myself. That needs to wait until tomorrow.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:01, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My problems are original research

But they're real problems that someone may be having and therefore may have sources we can use. I've covered these on another site[1]. The reasons for my problems may indicate we have some additions to make to some articles.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 18:01, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, finding out informtion may be harder than I thought. See the link provided.

July 15 changes

I was just adding a link to the one article that covers cable TV, satellite TV, FiOS and any other means my which people might receive TV signals other than by antenna.

I put the link on the CECB page as well. I made the mistake of looking at what else was there and discovered certain details that really belonged in this article but were not here. They didn't belong there because they weren't about the boxes.

Then I looked around this article and started noticing verb tense changes that have been needed since February! How did we not notice these? We worked hard on this article!Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 20:40, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
