Talk:ASIMO/Draft
Reference to Isaac Asimov
Honda officially claims that "ASIMO" is not a reference to Isaac Asimov. So is the name merely a coincidence? Anyone with a high school diploma should be able to figure out that this is not the case; I think it's more appropriate to write in the introduction that ASIMO is named after Isaac Asimov than to echo the "contrary to popular belief...."

This article is certainly worth to be examined for Approval. --Peter Schmitt 01:18, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
- I moved 'development history' section to my sandbox. I think it does not necessarily need to be included for the article to be approved, so it could be completed by Approved version 2.0. (Chunbum Park 12:54, 22 December 2011 (UTC))
Comment
Having read the entire article, it is my opinion that it is exceedingly well written and I would recommend that it be approved. I am an Engineering editor, but I am no expert on robotics. However, I found this article to be very interesting, well detailed, easy to understand and well written.
The only point that should be corrected is that some of the references provide only the authors' names and dates but do not include the the title of their publication or the book (or journal) in which the publication appeared. For example: (a) the four references to Masato, Hirose and Ogawa Kenchi, (b) the two references to Sakagami et al, (c) the reference to Kim et al and (d) the reference to Pfeiffer, Friedrich, and Hirochika Inoue.

- Those are now fixed. Thank you for the comment. (Chunbum Park 05:23, 23 December 2011 (UTC))
