Byte backwards

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Orphaned article since August 2006; no sources listed to support the notability of this term. —Bkell (talk) 17:09, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete No proof that this is a notable term; doesn't appear to have been used in any reliable sources. Even so, it's a mere dicdef anyway. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:17, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, I think this was used a "bit" in assembly-language programming, but the topic is covered at endianness. Most uses I found were not to internal byte order of a value but counting N bytes "backwards" from some point, i.e. not the meaning here at all. --Dhartung | Talk 21:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete unless references can be found. I could find nothing that didn't point back to this article. Hobit (talk) 01:25, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment If anyone disagrees with the four persons above, I can only ask that they be civil about it... please, no backbiting. Mandsford (talk) 01:46, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment word to the wise, a bit of sarcasm can byte you around here. :-) Hobit (talk) 03:14, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, if the term is real its rather obscure to have an article claiming its common. --BrucePodger (talk) 23:36, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
