Circular reference

[edit]

The URL http://www.11073.org/ was listed as a reference for this article. However, that URL simply redirects to this Wikipedia page (http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/ISO/IEEE_11073). Dave (talk) 00:30, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is a temporary (circular) redirection because the previous 11073.org server ceased service provision! Melvin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.104.45.212 (talk) 17:18, 21 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Seems back up now. But still this article has horrible citation problems and other issues. The fact that it tended to use German-style capital letters, makes me wonder if it was either a cut-n-paste of a translation of the German article, or of parts of the standard itself (the language of standards groups tends to use German-style Capital Letters for Most Terms it Defines). It should be paraphrased into normal English which only uses capital letters for proper nouns. W Nowicki (talk) 20:06, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

Merging does not solve the quality problem. However a sound rewriting of crosss referring and the citations is required to prove the necessity of independent lemmata.Wireless friend (talk) 14:19, 4 June 2014 (UTC) The article about IEEE 11073 and IEEE 11073 PHD should not be merged since they are not the same standard. PHD is based upon the 11073, but is used for home monitoring, the base 11073 was meant for hospitals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.64.87.57 (talk) 11:59, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well then that needs to be clarified in the articles, along with a citation to a verifiable source. When I look, I see the group seems to define PHD as "personal health device", so wonder why it has the odd title ISO/IEEE 11073 Personal Health Data (PHD) Standards (whew!) which stuffs in an acronym in parentheses, a different expansion of the same letters, two acronyms of standards bodies (without explaining how the ISO relates to this?) and a number, all in German-style capitalization? To avoid deletion or merging, you need to show independent sources so we can verify, not just make an assertion. W Nowicki (talk) 20:06, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

VITAL.

[edit]

This article states "This standard is the "heart" of VITAL." What is VITAL? Kmacdowe (talk) 16:44, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just one example of much unexplained jargon. Way too much detail and not enough context for a Wikipedia article. This cannot be a HOWTO guide, there are plenty other places to do that. W Nowicki (talk) 20:06, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
