Telecommunications

Telecommunications is a subset of data communications. There is no need to mention tele-communcations in the first paragraph.

Possibly but some may argue that telecommunications span a distance and some of the communications discussed in this article are local. ~Kvng (talk) 14:18, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fgnievinski, aan you elaborate on your WP:NEO assertion? These articles have citations and a quick search shows evidence of use of the terms in sources. ~Kvng (talk) 23:02, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I refactored the above comment to provide workable links and what looked like an attempt to ping a user. Johnuniq (talk) 07:00, 4 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I refactored it so much that I will repeat the ping because the first probably did not work. Sorry Fgnievinski if you get this twice. Johnuniq (talk) 07:01, 4 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
