Merger proposal

I propose that Kinect for Xbox One be merged into Kinect. Much of the important content is already there, and I don't feel that a new sensor and higher resolution camera, nice features but not earth shattering, justify an entirely separate article.Timtempleton (talk) 06:10, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned references in [[:Kinect]]

I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Kinect's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "verge-ones":

  • From Xbox One controller: {{cite web|title=Microsoft announces the Xbox One S, its smallest Xbox yet|url=https://www.theverge.com/2016/6/13/11911184/microsoft-xbox-one-s-announced-price-specs-e3-2016|website=The Verge|publisher=Vox Media|accessdate=June 13, 2016}}
  • From Xbox One: {{cite web|title=Microsoft announces the Xbox One S, its smallest Xbox yet|url=https://www.theverge.com/2016/6/13/11911184/microsoft-xbox-one-s-announced-price-specs-e3-2016|first=Andrew|last=Webster|website=The Verge|publisher=Vox Media|date=June 13, 2016|accessdate=June 13, 2016}}

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 04:14, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

Minor edit

Hi, since i don't do many edits i can't correct a little mistake i saw in the article.

In Technology -> Fundamentals

"The light pattern is deformed by the relative depth of the objects in front it" it misses a 'of'.

I haven't seen any other mistake but i'm not too good at it either.--Draal (talk) 21:39, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Discontinued

Is it okay to add 'discontinued' before 'line' in the first sentence? MKsLifeInANutshell (talk) 08:23, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Based on U-Force?
