data compression

Dear Richgel999,

It recently came to my attention that several articles on Wikipedia about data compression techniques have been deleted. (See Wikibooks:Talk:Data_Compression#lost data compression techniques for details).

Since the Wikipedia people keep talking about "The Sum of All Human Knowledge"[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6], I find this disappointing.

However, I am learning that Wikipedia makes a pretty good "summary of all human knowledge", with links to other places that go into more detail. And I keep discovering other places, outside Wikipedia, that the Wikipedia people have created -- other places that might be a better place than an encyclopedia for excruciatingly detailed information. One of those other places is Wikibooks.

I invite you to help me write Wikibooks: Data Compression. --DavidCary (talk) 02:06, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
