"Paging is a memory scheme that breaks up memory in groups of pages that are constantly swapped between hard disk and computer" - That is utter bullshit. It should be rephrased. [[User:Jal|Jal]] 19:41, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
:Agreed and I've made a start on fixing it - a proof-read (and possible rewording) would be much appreciated. --[[User:Aj|Aj]] 17:09, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
::Indeed much better. Perhaps I'd make it architecture neutral in the introduction, so at least the ring 3 reference should be avoided (or maybe with an added "on x86" or the like). [[User:Jal|Jal]] 11:16, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
:::OK - because the whole thing is very x86 focussed, I've left in most of the references but made them more obvious. Feel free to tinker with the wording if you like. I've also added a reference to Segmentation in the protection part - just for completeness. --[[User:Aj|Aj]] 19:16, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
 
== Page Attribute Table (PAT) ==
 
I'm missing the PAT index bit in the discussion of the page directory (4MB pages only) and the page table. Perhaps it should be added (I've got no time atm). [[User:Jal|Jal]] 11:18, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
