Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (109.152.226.245) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

This is your talk page, to discuss possible changes to articles. Gah4 (talk) 16:43, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Gah4:. Incorrect. Discussions about changes to articles belong on that articles talk page. What, exactly was your point? 109.152.226.245 (talk) 16:45, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Some discussions go to talk pages. In general, events are past tense (once they are past), but otherwise present. The act of designing is an event, so ... xxx designed the yyy in 1980. A design on paper, even if never built, is present, unless all copies are torn up. If you want to discuss more, yes, use the TR-1 talk page. Gah4 (talk) 17:30, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Gah4: In retrospect, I think you were probably right to delete the section as unreferenced. The six transistor version would have been ridiculously expensive as it was using the then new junction transistors which were rare (specially made by Texas for the design allegedly). The design was slimmed down to four transistors as a cost saving measure (though that version still cost around $50 in 1954, so was not cheap). 109.152.226.245 (talk) 17:46, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Television licensing in the United Kingdom; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
As you were not prepared to do so, I have created an RFC on the talk page to facilitate discussion. You can discuss your concerns about article content there. In line with WP:3RR I will leave your latest reversion as it stands at present. Cnbrb (talk) 17:45, 29 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
