IEEE 1900.4 may garner merging into IEEE SCC41, now that I have found that 1900.4 is a member of SCC41.
As the creating wiki author of both IEEE 1900.4 and IEEE SCC41, I have no problem with that.
I will leave that decision to others. Apparently 1900.4 is just some sort of framework, so protocols may have other designations. I think popular protocols ought to have their own pages ala 802.11 et al.
Formerly, I titled it "IEEE 1900.4 Working Group" until I found out the Wiki standard for designating IEEE articles, and renamed it (using a redirect I already had) to "IEEE 1900.4", setting "IEEE 1900.4 Working Group" as a redirect.
I believe now, opposed to what I previously said, that it might not become a popular article, because of its parent committee in IEEE and the possibility that I misread which particular name will be referenced in protocol stacks.
Here are the discussions present in "IEEE 1900.4 Working Group" at the time:
2009-03-23: Creating page from reference gotten from DSLReports.Com.
Will take a bit to flesh out. I encourage others to do so.
Will become a popular article. I am not in a position to flesh it out fully, but am perfectly capable of giving it a decent name so it doesn't come up blank. [ that was User talk:ValaUlmo in March 2009 ]
As a follow-up, I would note that the claim of "popularized by various articles" only cites an IEEE press release. I put that in the parent article, and two years later there is still no demonstrated independent notability, so will go ahead and merge. W Nowicki (talk) 00:15, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
