== Let's improve the articles about AMD topics ==

In the last months and weeks I have been working on improving the articles about [[Advanced Micro Devices|AMD]] topics, e.g. templates, articles about CPUs, GPUs, etc. I just want to encourage everyone to achieve this goal together.

I noticed that most of the articles about [[Advanced Micro Devices|AMD]] topics are not on the same level as the articles about [[Intel]] and [[Nvidia]] topics. These issues are both about quality, e.g. outdated information, and quantity, e.g. lack of details.

Together we can make the articles about AMD topics even better. Thanks for your help! --[[User:Soluvo|Soluvo]] ([[User talk:Soluvo|talk]]) 11:07, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

:In the row that links [[List of AMD Ryzen microprocessors]], currently no Intel equivalent is listed. While there's no "list of Intel Core processors" article, the closest thing to an equivalent exists as 4 separate articles: [[List of Intel Core i3 microprocessors]], [[List of Intel Core i5 processors]], [[List of Intel Core i7 microprocessors]] and [[List of Intel Core i9 processors]]. Should these be added to the table perhaps? –&nbsp;[[User:Numbermaniac|<span style="color:#00E">numbermaniac</span>]] 03:14, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

::{{Ping|Numbermaniac}} Thanks, a very good suggestion! I just added the four lists about Intel Core processors to the table. --[[User:Soluvo|Soluvo]] ([[User talk:Soluvo|talk]]) 23:04, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

== AMD CDNA: data center compute GPUs ==

As far as I can tell there is no information on Wikipedia about AMD's CDNA data center compute GPUs. CDNA stands for ''Compute DNA'' just like RDNA stands for ''Radeon DNA''.

Here are some links about it:

== Why does Bill Gaede feature at the top of the "See Also" list?  ==

He is tangentially related to AMD at best - not sure what the basis for including him in such a prominent position is?  Without objection I'll remove him and add a reference to the relevant time period in the history section.  [[User:Sahrin|Sahrin]] ([[User talk:Sahrin|talk]]) 10:36, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

== "Blockchain Game Alliance" ==

Regarding [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=AMD&diff=prev&oldid=1154234165 this edit] if the [[Blockchain Game Alliance]] is encyclopedically significant enough to mention, cite a reliable, [[WP:IS]] explaining to readers ''why'' it is significant. Press releases are neither reliable nor [[WP:IS]] and cannot demonstrate significance. [[Blockchain Game Alliance]] redirects to [[Blockchain_game#History]], where the "Alliance" is given precisely one sentence, and no indication of importance is mentioned. 

Our goal isn't to cram in any and all factoids which can be sourced, it is to explain things to readers to they understand the larger topic. Regurgitating a press release doesn't help readers understand this topic, nor does it indicate why they should look into it any further.

To put it another way, tell readers why they should care and use better sources to do it.

It is inappropriate to use promotional or flimsy sources to imply a level of significance when those sources do not support such significance. Wikipedia is not a platform for advocacy or promotion. [[User:Grayfell|Grayfell]] ([[User talk:Grayfell|talk]]) 03:51, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

== Data sheets of the products ==

Unlike Intel AMD is well know for keeping its products technical documentation (datasheets on chipsets, CPUs etc). This fact should be reflected in the article I think.
