SCSI command
Wikipedia is not an instruction manual. Interiot 20:36, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * ... and neither is this article. I see nothing in this article that comprises instructions to the reader for doing anything.  Uncle G 20:54, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I had always taken that part of WP:NOT to mean that it covered technical manuals as well, since it covers "how-tos" and "instruction manuals". Minutiae from technical manuals had always struck me as not notable enough on their own, as I hadn't seen x86 instruction codes, or individual protocols broken out, or individual keywords from random languages, or documentation for third-party APIs, etc etc.  While verifiable, things like that don't seem notable enough to me, unless they specifically have backlinks to more notable articles, and are necessary to explain them (eg. argument of perigee).  --Interiot 21:24, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
