Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Comparison of EDA software

[edit]

Thanks for your edits on Comparison of EDA software. Unfortunately, I had to remove four programs that have no Wikipedia-article as they are deemed non-notable and fail the inclusion criteria. The Banner talk 08:26, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What do you not understand from must have its own article? The Banner talk 09:16, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You have deleted two entries, while only one had not its own article; that's probably just an oversight of yours. Removing is simple, while adding is difficult: it takes a lot of time and effort from people. I invite you to be more careful in the future. Concerning your rule about the existence of an "own article" we discussed that already (unfortunately quite unsuccessfully) here. Please continue the conversation there. Thank you. Goitseu (talk) 09:44, 19 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. You point to Chisel (programming language), not to an article about FIRRTL.
  2. Removing of the selection criteria is often called vandalism
  3. Do not edit in archived pages
  4. Spamming is not allowed.
Please be more careful in the future. The Banner talk 12:45, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
1. FIRRTL is part of the Chisel workflow. Don't you agree?
2. Can you point to a WP rule?
3. Sorry, I should have unarchived it indeed since it was prematurely archived prematurely -my mistake. I continued the discussion in your talk page. Please don't archive it again before the discussion is settled.
4. I totally agree. Again, what do you consider spam exactly? Goitseu (talk) 20:01, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
1) No.
2) WP:N
3) My talk page is archived following the rules I have set. That is 72 hours after the last edit.
4) Amongst others, plain advertising and adding non-notable packages.
And now I want an apology and retraction of the accusation directed to me personally. A personal attack has nothing to do with the present content dispute. The Banner talk 13:20, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I answer using the same numbering:
1. This is unfortunate. I disagree with you and I think most people skilled in the art would disagree too. FIRRTL is an integral part of Chisel, as you can verify for example here or with a quick online search. How do you suggest to proceed in this case?
2. I do not understand what your link to WP:notability has to do with vandalism. Could you please elaborate on that? I really can't follow you here. They are two different concepts.
3. I think you should wait longer, especially for unsettled discussions. I have already sent you a link about the archiving policy (here it is again), have you seen it? Some people suggest at least 14 days. Others say, quote: For many pages, 14 days is far too quick because they don't get many discussions and issues can sometimes take years to be resolved. Do you disagree?
4. It is unavoidable that anything which appears on Wikipedia can be considered as an advertisement. According to you therefore is everything spam? Or are you differentiating between "advertisement" and "plain advertisement"? In this case, what do you consider as "plain advertisement"? Please kindly make some examples.
user:The_Banner, I would like to invite you leave aside any possible personalism. The goal is to write a better article. This means in particular entering into technical discussion whenever necessary. Thank you, Goitseu (talk) 14:21, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It would be enough when you stop with personal attacks, apologize for and retract all prior accusations. It is you who is making this personal. The Banner talk 14:53, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry, I really can't follow you here -could you bring some examples?
Can I instead kindly ask you to answer to the questions in points 1, 2, 3 and 4 above? Thanks! Goitseu (talk) 14:58, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is useless to discuss any further with you because you either do not understand, not accept or blatantly ignore even the most basic principles. Please read [[WP:CIR]. The Banner talk 16:52, 23 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Aldec

[edit]

Yes, I removed the link to Aldec. Did you check the link? It goes to the company, not to the program. The Banner talk 10:13, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch, thanks, you are right. Still, the "Aldec company" article contains a paragraph about the Aldec-HDL software. Aldec was there before the discussion started, please kindly wait for a consensus before banning entries from the article further. Removing Aldec means also removing an entire subsection.
As a side note, also the industry standard Synopsys, Cadence, and Mentor Graphics software have "only" a company article and not a software article: would this be a reason in your opinion to ban them from the list as well? Goitseu (talk) 10:42, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I just upheld the present standing consensus. Do not claim thing based on your personal wishes before a consensus is reached. The Banner talk 11:18, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And about the three examples: they are not in the list of packages. The Banner talk 11:18, 24 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

EDA comparison alternative

[edit]

The editor consensus is forming for keeping the status quo, as expected, leaving the article in it's incomplete form. With its misleading title, which should really be "Comparison of EDA software that happens to have a wikipedia article" (I mean which casual, non-editor reader would go and do the research to figure it's not a comparison of EDA software that are notable on the field?).

I've seen some EDA listings elsewhere, but they were rather narrow and about as arbitrarily chosen as wikipedia's at the moment. I haven't seen a real good list that tried to:

1. cover all fields: sch, layout, synthesis, simulation (not only spice!), IC, PCB, autorouting (both IC and PCB!)

2. all stages of the process properly (the current setup especially lacks details at the end of the process, e.g. CAM level viewers, like gerber viewers, external DRC software, BOM/inventory management, etc)

3. handle the bundled-packages vs. modular packages vs. ecosystems properly (the current setup handles closed bundles and stand-alone single-purpose tools)

4. have an effort to have at least a somewhat detailed info page per software

5. and list everything that are actually notable, with accurate details

For the few software it covers, wikipedia is good for 4, but with its hostile policy against small time editors/contributors and with editors seemingly not familiar with EDA, it's very unlikely it would ever come close to 5. Your edits lately started to address 1. and 3, but I don't think you will be able to fully complete these without bumping into wikipedia policy limitations again and again. For example the gEDA side of things would need a major rework, probably some splitting, which would then probably trigger notability-re-evaluation, which could lead to more deletions instead of sorting out details.

In general, I still think a proper listing that meets all above requirements and relies a bit more on contribution from experts who actually know anything about the subject matter could be real useful. I also think wikipedia will be unable to provide the environment for such effort.

In case you decide to work on such a system of articles/writeups/posts on another platform, please let me know here on or my IP's talk page, I'd be happy to help/contribute on the PCB workflow side. 80.99.88.182 (talk) 13:16, 25 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Xyce moved to draftspace

[edit]

Thanks for your contributions to Xyce. Unfortunately, it is not ready for publishing because it needs more sources to establish notability. Your article is now a draft where you can improve it undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 17:25, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I formatted better some citations and added a couple of references. It is hard to believe that Xyce is not notable. If you check the Comparison of EDA software many of the tools listed there have far less references than this draft. I submitted it for review now. Goitseu (talk) 20:10, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
