User talk:Luca Ghio

Hello, Luca Ghio

I am afraid I had to revert your edit in Internet Explorer 10 because it was not cited from a reliable source. Although I personally believe in the accuracy of the picture you showed, WP:SPS says self-published sources are not allowed. The source should be either a person who is well-known for his expertise or otherwise from a publisher who has an editorial committee that oversees the accuracy of printed material.

Still, I think you don't need to worry: "Windows 7 or later" still means Windows Server 2008 R2.

Again, sorry; but Wikipedia is a not lot of things that I like it to be. Fleet Command (talk) 17:02, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I can't open the source right now; maybe because it's the Internet busy hour right now and the server is overburdened. I'll look it up in a couple of hours. Though, if you were not satisfied with my judgment, you can always call a Third Opinion or an RFC.

However, I have learned that the best thing to do is to be patient: Internet Explorer 10 beta will one day come. When the time comes, we will write the supported operating systems in details. Fleet Command (talk) 18:42, 28 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, now I see five references there: SeattleTimes, Foxnews, PC Magazine, TG Daily and Computing.co.uk These are pretty much reliable sources, though you cannot rely on them blindly.

SeattleTimes, Foxnews and PC Magazine say nothing about platform support.

TG Daily and Computing.co.uk say Windows 7 and Windows Codename 8 only but Computing.co.uk is showing out prominent screenshot that suggest every operating system after Windows 7 is also supported. It is possible that they are talking contextually. Either they are not aware of Windows Server 2008 R2 or they don't think their readers are aware of it.

So, if you ask me, I say we should stick with "Windows 7 and later" for the time being. I think we should be cautious. Fleet Command (talk) 07:34, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

8-30-11 Thanks for your revision of IE

I was checking back on the history but in 20 minutes I could not find a revision that went back that far. Is there a quick way to find it? 1archie99 (talk) 15:33, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your revision is very much welcome. I only removed the extra space. I hope the continued downslide in IE usage makes microsoft realize that many people like myself felt the elimination of the separate search box was not a good idea. IE9 also interfered with the playing of Flash video files.
I got fed up with sites telling me I needed to install the latest version of the Flash program when it was already on my computer. I reinstalled Flash two or three times with no change in the error messages. After I went back to IE8, no more problems for weeks and I play a lot of Flash videos. Finally, You Tube told me the Flash Player 10 program, even the latest version, would not play a particular program due to the fact that I had a 64 bit edition of IE8. You Tube told me where to find the beta 11 version of Flash which solved the problem. I am waiting for a return to the separate search box before I consider going back to IE9. How do you feel about IE9 and Flash Player 11?1archie99 (talk) 17:05, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your feedback. I looked up Ubuntu in Wikipeda and glanced over it; how long have you been using it? First I had ever heard of it. I agree with you regarding removal of prior months data. I will consider trying to change that by starting a discussion. Your English almost perfect and is no problem for me. If you reply please do so on your talk page. Probably easier for both of us and keeps conversation on one page.1archie99 (talk) 17:44, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The tables are almost certainly removed because of page size. Really I have Ubuntu and Windows on dual boot and I would move to Ubuntu, but I'm not very willing (and I haven't a lot of time) to transfer my programs.--Luca Ghio (talk) 18:46, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
