The result of the move request was: page moved. Consensus was to move and was there for the proposed name. If anyone thinks that Catalyst (switch) is the better choice, free free to renominate to discuss that option. Vegaswikian (talk) 19:01, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Catalyst switch → Cisco Catalyst — These are the Catalyst series switches by Cisco, "switch" is a disambiguatory term. It would be better to call them Cisco Catalyst than use a disambig term outside of parens. 64.229.100.45 (talk) 08:23, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Discussion

 * Any additional comments:


 * Comment: As a product line that is not widely known, I wonder if it might make more sense to leave "switch" in the article title than to add the company name as an alternative disambiguator. See MOS:TM, which recommends editors say "Rolex watches" rather than simply "Rolexes", even though Rolex is more widely known. –CWenger ( ^ •  @ ) 22:23, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
 * This product line is widely known. It's one of the most popular line of infrastructure switches. And shouldn't that be "Rolex (watch)" instead of "Rolex watches"? Which in this case would be "Catalyst (switch)". Though a catalyst is something in chemistry that assists chemical reactions, so a catalyst switch is the change in catalysts, following standard English grammar, so the disambiguated form of this title is still ambiguous. 65.94.45.160 (talk) 05:03, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
 * You may be right that MOS:TM applies more to article content than article title. Catalyst (switch) would make sense to me, as would Cisco Catalyst. I'm not sure which is preferable. I'll leave it to other editors to (hopefully) voice their opinion. –CWenger ( ^ •  @ ) 06:22, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Merging Stackwise
I saw the merge-proposal for Cisco Stackwise. Imho Stackwise is just a feature in a line of Catalyst switches and doesn't need its own article; and even if it would: the Q of the original article is not meetig Wiki standards. Therefore did a quick merge ad redird the old link.JanT (talk) 07:02, 28 May 2011 (UTC)

... to date
It would be nice to specify the date of the "to date". Why? It seems that it is up till now, but the today date is advancing everyday, and some of these "to date" may be untrue already. 193.219.179.254 (talk) 09:06, 1 October 2018 (UTC)


 * I assume we're talking about the "No EoL notices to date" entries. We could just change those to "No EoL notices". That might address your concern. It doesn't keep time from advancing though. ~Kvng (talk) 14:56, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
 * These model lists are getting far out of date (already marked as such) earlier this year. We were down to a single "No EoL notices announced to date" entry. I have removed that because I assume I might find one were I to look. ~Kvng (talk) 19:14, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
