Merger
editI disagree with merging this stub into the larger fibre optic cable article. There's a lot more that can be added to this article from numerous technical sources.
Besides, we have an enormous backlog of articles to merge already. --A. B. (talk • contribs • global count) 22:39, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, yes we do have a backlog. --Wtshymanski (talk) 02:21, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
Picture needed
editDuh. Nothing shows up on Commons when I look, and the only ADSS photos I've got access to, I don't have rights to use here. --Wtshymanski (talk) 16:07, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
How about this one? ADSS Reserve Storage Loop as installed by AT&T
- Nothing there. Not even a registered user name. --Wtshymanski (talk) 14:28, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
The lack of metal is not noteworthy
editThe first sentence of the article say "All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that contains no conductive metal elements.". This does not strike me as sufficiently distinguishing from other optical cables to be called out in the FIRST sentence, considering that a lack of included electrical conductors is relatively common in fiber optic line.

- WP:SOFIXIT. Probably not like optical cables that need steel strands to support them. How would you phrase this? --Wtshymanski (talk) 16:06, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
