Change to first paragraph: move the references, not kill them
Line 121:
:::I agree that the references seem a bit out of place. However, it was [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Computer_science&diff=37506302&oldid=37483197 Dz that inserted the refs], so I imagine that we'll have to get him to agree to removing them. --[[User:Allan McInnes|Allan McInnes]] 03:46, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
 
::::Hey, i wasn't suggesting that we ''delete'' them outright (references are great!), but rather that we move them somewhere more relevant (and less distracting). To me, the two most obvious places would be the part of the article that talks about the definition disputes, and/or the [[Diversity of computer science]] article (which is apparently due for merging, anyway). --[[User:Piet Delport|Piet Delport]] 01:49, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
 
If you can get wikipedians to remove all the references and notes to the article on [[Hugo Chavez]], then I might be persuaded. There is a reason why that article has so many notes and references, its needs its sources. The few people that are familiar with this article may not want the sources, but there are lots of people that can use them. Perhaps, make a suggestion to the developers of mediawiki to have an option to turn notes and references off. I've been in other highly controversial articles, and the feedback always state to use notes and references -- it is a must. The policy even states to cite sources. The article needs more references -- not less. As with the above paragraph above that shows the diversity and evolution of CS, it needs to be sourced also. &mdash; [[User:Dzonatas|<b><FONT COLOR="#0000FF">Dz</FONT><FONT COLOR="#3F50FF">on</FONT><FONT COLOR="#5F80FF">at</FONT><FONT COLOR="#77B0FF">as</FONT></b>]] 14:44, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
