== Spelling Error ==
 
In the "Internet Governance" section, in the "NIC, InterNIC, IANA, and ICANN" subsection, in the last paragraph, the IAB is mentioned with no expansion of the acronym. The simplest fix would be to link it to the Internet Architecture Board page on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Architecture_Board [[User:MarshallWilensky|MarshallWilensky]] ([[User talk:MarshallWilensky|talk]]) 16:35, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
In content 4.1, "World Wide Web and introduction of browsers," there is a spelling mistake in the caption of the 1997 library advertisement—instead of "unfamliar," it should be "unfamiliar." Please fix. Thank you. [[User:XKBLUE|XKBLUE]] ([[User talk:XKBLUE|talk]]) 19:25, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

== Add source for the commercial restrictions of ARPANET ==
:Done. [[User:Blurryman|Blurryman]] ([[User talk:Blurryman|talk]]) 00:19, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
 
Hi, if someone allowed to edit the page could link to https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/pdfs/ADA164353.pdf as a source for the "unrelated commercial use was strictly forbidden" sentence in [[History of the Internet#From ARPANET to NSFNET]] ?

[[User:Martana2727|Martana2727]] ([[User talk:Martana2727|talk]]) 20:11, 11 March 2022 (UTC) While working on my article, so far this week I have added 4 wikilcnks to words that I knew I would need more information on and added an image to wikimedia for the first time. Additionally, I am still working on using the information from other articles in regards to the history of the internet to build on the article that I have chosen so far.

== Introduced to data communication ==
== Remove Web stuff ==
 
When was network model invented and by which organisation [[Special:Contributions/41.203.190.126|41.203.190.126]] ([[User talk:41.203.190.126|talk]]) 11:34, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
This article repeats much of the information already in [[History of the World Wide Web]]. Since this article is well over the recommended 50KB (currently 196KB), I think it makes sense to delete most of the Web stuff and point folks over to [[History of the World Wide Web]].
 
:That's explained in the first few paragraphs of the lede. Is something missing? cheers. [[User:Anastrophe|anastrophe]], [[User talk:Anastrophe|an editor he is.]] 19:22, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
I'd delete [[History_of_the_Internet#World_Wide_Web_and_introduction_of_browsers]],
[[History_of_the_Internet#From_Gopher_to_the_WWW]], [[History_of_the_Internet#Search_engines]], and [[History_of_the_Internet#Dot-com_bubble]] and clean up other references to the Web.
 
== Donald Davies was Preceded by Paul Baran ==

*'''Support''' I copied those four sections above over to [[History of the World Wide Web]] and merged the text into that article. [[User:Whizz40|Whizz40]] ([[User talk:Whizz40|talk]]) 09:59, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

From the Engineering and Technology History Wiki "RAND Corporation researcher Paul Baran wrote an eleven-volume analysis, “On Distributed Communications,” for the Air Force in August 1964. The Air Force wanted to build a communication system that would not fail if one of its nodes was destroyed. Distributed networks had the virtue of being survivable because they have no critical central components. ... In 1965, Davies of the National Physical Laboratory in the United Kingdom, designed a store-and-forward packet switching system. In a June 1966 proposal, he coined the term “packet” to describe the 128-byte data blocks that would flow through the system. Only after distributing this research in Britain did Davies learn that Baran had made a similar proposal in 1964."

If your going to give both of them credit I feel it's only fair to mention that Baran did in fact precede Davies. [[User:AgentChicken32|AgentChicken32]] ([[User talk:AgentChicken32|talk]]) 23:26, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
{{edit semi-protected|History of the Internet|answered=yes}}
:Agree, that's correct. The Wikipedia article does say this as well, in both the lead and the body. See [[History of the Internet#Packet switching]]. However, Paul Baran didn't build a network, whereas Davies built the local-area NPL network, see [[History of the Internet#NPL network]]. Baran is prominently discussed on the main article on [[Packet switching]]. [[User:Whizz40|Whizz40]] ([[User talk:Whizz40|talk]]) 06:13, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
