It still remains an article about radio beacons, for which I created sub-sections for the most common classes. The sections on IR and sonar beacons are still empty. Could anybody contribute something, even a reference?
A google search for IR beacons produced some interesting pages (see below), but I am no specialist in these systems:
I believe this paragraph should be cleaned-up a bit and then moved to a level 3 subsection of Radio beacons, with references to the IEEE 802.11 articles. Any opinions? Sv1xv ( talk) 20:22, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
I've split off the amateur radio beacon content into a new article called radio propagation beacon. It is an entirely different topic for the use of beacons for navigation. Personally, I think the WiFi content should be dropped or split off as well, unless someone out there is using WiFi for navigation.-- Kharker ( talk) 21:23, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Google's only hits on the term that involve radio equipment point to this page or ones copying it.
The term was used at the end of the 19th century to refer to searchlights, and also by Chinese vendors on Alibaba selling rotating lights seen on police cars.
Unless someone can demonstrate that the term "electric beacon" is more common than "radio beacon", I'm moving this back. Maury Markowitz ( talk) 18:30, 1 April 2019 (UTC)
