Talk:Honeywell

Old talk (2005)

It took me half an hour to find it, but here ya go http://www.members.tripod.com/honeycore/ Also of signifigane interest: http://members.tripod.com/~unhallowed/v11.html Maybe we should make a Volume 11 page and link it to the Honeywell (band) page, after it's created.

disambiguation page needed! honeywell is also a band (that i know next to nothing about, which is why i was looking for an article) if i had to label them, i'd say they're hardcore/screamo, but my knowledge ends there. more info would be greatly appreciated!

Honeywell_(band) doesn't have an article doesn't exist, which seems sad because apparently "...Song Of Zarathustra is unmitigated screamo. Whilst Honeywell can surely lay claim to starting the movement, you can give credit to Angel Hair for making the genre a touch less of a headfuck." Although I have to admit today is the first I've ever heard of them. Anyway, this ain't the place for it. If anyone knows more, please start the article! They'd definitely be covered under WP:Music.

Honeywell 2010 products

I suggest we have a section under the today area of the page that explains more about the heating controls area. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jessica Clamp (talk • contribs) 12:26, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Honeywell products

Is it worth mentioning that Honeywell makes Bendix Brakes for cars? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.74.160.117 (talk) 03:05, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, in the Southern States Bendix is a huge brand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by B D Lawnic (talk • contribs) 01:45, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

AlliedSignal and Honeywell merge; AlliedSignal brings with them Holts; Holts markets auto-care products under the Simoniz name. That may deserve a mention right there along with Prestone, Fram, and Autolite. --Charles Gaudette 18:35, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Wells Fargo?

"However, the corporate headquarters were consolidated to AlliedSignal's headquarters in Morristown, New Jersey rather than Honeywell's historic former headquarters in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The latter have become headquarters for the Wells Fargo Home Mortgage division. In 1991 Honeywell's computer division was sold to Groupe Bull."

What does Wells Fargo have to do with Honeywell? --Charles Gaudette 18:47, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Think it's worth mentioning...

...Honeywell 316 (Kitchen Computer)? 68.39.174.238 05:31, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

plz someone help me with the honeywell and v11 page, cuz i dont know how to edit it. i just wrote a small bio, the releases and comps and someone now has to edit it.thx

What is this supposed to mean?

In 1970, Honeywell bought General Electric's computer division. The company was reorganized into two operating units: Honeywell Information Systems, headed by President Clarence (Clancy) Spangle and Honeywell entered the defense industry in World War II, at first producing aerospace elements.

How can you start off by referring to a 1970 purchase and the subsequent reorg and finish by talking about WW II> What is the second division?

Fair use rationale for Image:Logo honeywell.gif

Image:Logo honeywell.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

Honeywell Print Ads

Does anyone else remember the Honeywell ads of the 70s & 80s of animals and whatnot made of cicuitry? Any pics online of them? 70.88.213.74 (talk) 19:37, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

you can find some info here here --Thydzik (talk) 12:08, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Comfortable Defense

Isn't it a little weird that "In 1996, Honeywell acquired Duracraft and began marketing its products in the home comfort sector. Today, Kaz Incorporated owns both Duracraft and Honeywell's home comfort lines." is under the heading "Defense"? While I would like to be both comfortable and safe, I am not sure Honeywell's defense line is used in the home.

Also, there is little information on their control technology, which I suspect is their main business. 216.255.104.61 (talk) 16:03, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Open request about COI-compliant editing

Open request to the Wikipedian who is managing this article. I work for Honeywell and would like to make the Honeywell entry more robust, and accurate of the business and history of Honeywell. Having made that comment, I first became involved with Wikipedia back in 2006 and even attended Wikimania that year. I don't want to run afoul of Wikipedia rules, but I do note that your discussion states you would like to upgrade corporate entries. Thanks ... Rich Hoeg ... the [Northstar Nerd | http://www.northstarnerd.org]. Sorry my code is not perfect; I'm a bit rusty.

I would be very happy to post suggested updates on this page for review and acceptance or rejection.

[Rich Hoeg, 2009-08-18]

As far as who manages the article, it's however many people care to take an interest (as noted at WP:OWN). Certainly you are welcome to be one of them! The guidelines for COI-compliant editing are at WP:COI. That's a lengthy page, but it is generally recognized that one is not necessarily disqualified from editing because of a potential COI; the key is full disclosure and not being a dick. I suggest that you go ahead and edit happily, and people will stop you if they think your COI is showing. In general it is a good thing for people with knowledge of the topic to edit. If done well, it will stand up to scrutiny. Happy editing, — ¾-10 02:08, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Vehicles really necessary?

Lots of companies have their own vehicles with labels on them but I'm not sure that Honeywell has them as major parts of its brand or identity. The labels shown in the photos aren't even legible.--Hooperbloob (talk) 17:15, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Too many Honeywells?

I think the proliferation of articles on Honeywell is confusing. There's this article on Honeywell (Honeywell International, Inc.) as well as separate articles on Honeywell Aerospace and Honeywell Turbo Technologies. Yet this parent Honeywell International page is missing something that's badly needed: a diagram outlining the structure of the conglomerate, which could explain where some of the "parts" (Aerospace and Turbo Technologies) fit into the whole. In fact, I think Turbo Technologies is itself a part (or a set of products) of the Honeywell Aerospace. As things now stand, there is redundancy among the three articles as well as confusion about their relationships.~Mack2~

Honeywell Technology Solutions info wrong

I work for a division of Honeywell Technology Solutions (HTSI to be exact, Honeywell Technology Solutions, Inc.) and it's located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It's not a "research" division "dedicated to innovative product research"; it's pretty much all development (it's Defense). I notice the section has no references, but I don't want to add to the mediocrity. But, just FYI, as it stands, it's misleading. There may be an HTSI division in India, but it is no manner the only one. — Frεcklεfσσt | Talk 01:45, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Working on acquisitions table for Honeywell

There were no citations for the original acquisition section. I changed the bullet list to a readable table format. I am also working to find citations for this section. Lgkkitkat (talk) 22:27, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

The acquisitions table has been updated with all the citations except for one company - which I will continue to look for. Lgkkitkat (talk) 00:48, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

"Similar in name only"?

I don't get this:

Recently, Honeywell announced the implementation of a corporate philosophy known as the Honeywell Operating System (HOS), which incorporates practices similar in name only to the Toyota Production System.

If the practices are only superficially similar, why is Toyota's system relevant to the article?

Please list "unproductive edits"

Hello https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:BilCat - in order for me to improve my contributions to articles I seek the protocol of editing from more experienced community members. Please explain why you classified my edit as unproductive since no content was removed - I am really confused. It is my belief that our primary goal is to keep all information current. I have added citations to support my updated information. I respectfully request you to review the first paragraph to see that no information was removed but rather placed in a readable place. Please share your thoughts on this...it would be very much appreciated. Lgkkitkat (talk) 03:05, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
