Continuous Partial Attention → Continuous partial attention –

It's just a concept. Per WP:CAPS and WP:TITLE: this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. In addition, WP:MOS says that a compound item should not be upper-cased just because it is abbreviated with caps. Matches the formatting of related article titles.

• Support per usage in all sources. Seems uncontroversial. --McGeddon (talk) 09:26, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
• Support. I agree: this is a generic term. Noetica^Tea? 02:39, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Source for 1998 coinage of CPA?

Nate Torkington's blog coverage is quoted as the main source for Linda Stone's 1998 definition of CPA. (link #1)

However, that's problematic for at least three reasons:

1) The link is broken.

2) How can Nate Torkington's blog coverage of a 2006 talk be used to validate a 1998 event?

3) How can such an important, popular concept rely on such a weak, marginal source?

Does anybody have a better source? Thank you

Troll Citation

The Linda Stone on Youtube citation links to Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" music video. Was there ever a correct, original citation here? Pkla (talk) 22:14, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

What is PDA?

'PDA' is mentioned in the article without either a link or a definition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:642:C103:6590:9BAE:142B:553E:741D (talk) 22:53, 11 March 2018 (UTC)
