There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Voice over LTE#Requested move 10 January 2024 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 06:31, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedia editors, as a newcomer, I've noticed that in various countries, articles on telecommunications and internet are distinct yet interconnected topics. I've been actively involved in editing in both areas. However, updating a telecommunications article can unintentionally lead to the related internet article becoming outdated, a situation I've observed with Estonia. Conversely, updating the internet article can have a similar effect on the telecommunications article. To address this for Estonia, I've raised a question in the talk thread regarding the interest in prioritizing efforts to consolidate, update, or cross-reference these related articles, considering the significant time commitment involved. This challenge isn't unique to Estonia; I've encountered similar issues in countries like Switzerland, Finland, Denmark, and Spain. I'm seeking advice on how to effectively manage updates to ensure both accuracy and efficiency in handling both the 'parent' and related articles.

How does updating one article make another article (more) outdated? Or are you just worried that updating one will make related articles look worse? ~Kvng (talk) 14:09, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Kvng, I'd like to share an example of the issue I mentioned earlier, which involves the articles Telecommunications in Finland and Internet in Finland. I recently made updates to the "Internet" section in the Telecommunications in Finland article. However, I later discovered that there's a separate article titled Internet in Finland, which now contains outdated information due to those edits. I'm wondering whether it might be beneficial to merge the Telecommunications and Internet articles into a single comprehensive piece for each respective country. What are your thoughts on this?

Seems like a reasonable proposal but a quick survey finds this pattern of separate articles for telecommunications and Internet for many countries so I that doesn't seem to be a slam dunk. If we do keep separate articles, the way this is usually handled is described in WP:SUMMARY; Move the stuff that may need updates from Telecommunications in Finland to Internet in Finland and leave just a brief summary and ((Main)) link in Telecommunications in Finland. ~Kvng (talk) 15:16, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi all

I've started to improve Communications in the State of Palestine but this really isnt my area of expertise. Could someone who knows about this stuff also take a look, I know a lot is missing.

Thanks
