Naming convention
editThanks for input on naming convention. However, calling RQ-16 "Honeywell RQ-16" implies that the vehicle was all-together developed by Honeywell and takes credit away from a lot of other people/organizations. Until recently, the MAV project was headed by DARPA, now the project is under responsibility of US Army, the RQ-16 designation belongs to US military, which is funding it from taxpayers money, and calling RQ-16 Honeywell’s because they happen to get most of that money and may be replaced as the manufacturer at any time in the future is simply incorrect. But being incorrect is the case of many articles on Wikipedia written by consensus of not very knowledgeable people, and civility or not, if such people insist of stating incorrect things, calling them dickheads is appropriate. As I stated before, due to such people I generally don't contribute to Wikipedia and I won't bother doing it again. --Bxb
- Nevertheless, Honeywell is (at present) the current contractor for this system. If and when that changes (or if and when a name is assigned to the system) then we can move the article to that new name.
- And there's simply no excuse for incivility. --Rlandmann (talk) 10:58, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

- I've reverted the changes made by an IP which made this inconsistent. (Hohum @) 01:35, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
Miami-Dade
editThere's a lot of news coverage right now of Miami-Dade Police adopting this. I'm not sure what qualifies as a suitable reference to include in the article. -- SpareSimian (talk) 06:22, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
