→Software naming conventions: starting on your idea
:Sure; I'll be thinking about it. Just from a quick scan, we've got some inconsistency: [[C programming language]] but [[Java]] and [[Python]]. (Hey, what about the snakes and island?) I'd lobby for one consistency: either "Name (type)" such as "Windows (operating system)" or "Name type" such as "Windows operating system". "Name" breaks down too fast against Java (island), Python (snake), and Windows (architectural). "Brand Name" breaks down against C and Python, which don't have a company behind them. I'll be thinking more later today.--[[User:EvanW|EvanW]] 10:25, 1 December 2009 (EST)
