How is the random delay any different from, say, striking a poor-quality match that may not light on the first try or ever? -- NE2 11:59, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
I don't understand the name change. The majority of the sources for the article use "Sabbath Mode". A minority use "shabbos mode". "Sabbath Mode", furthermore, is used in all of the "authoritative" references, i.e. the ones by the people who invented or are actually building the feature. "Shabbat" mode is used in none of the references, so changing to "shabbat mode" makes the article more obscure in the service of some wikipedian unification principle I'm not familiar with. Let's change it back.

Shabbat mode → Sabbath mode — In continuation of the conversation in this section, this new subsection is here to ask for input from other users. Debresser ( talk) 12:38, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
Similar topics and Shabbat module's sources are all failed verification. Hyacinth ( talk) 05:20, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
I've reverted this edit and wanted to explain why. The term "observant Jews" is not an encyclopedic term and doesn't belong in this article. The term is not precisely defined by anyone. Obviously many "observant" Jews do not keep an Orthodox shabbat -- for example, there are observant Reform Jews who do many of those activities on the Sabbath (see an example here: [1]). Using "many Jews" avoids the problem of trying to define what an "observant Shabbat" is; same with trying to define what "Halakha" is or is not (even if you may have very strong opinions on what Halakhah is). Secondly, there's no issue with adding citation needed tags and the refimprove tag. They're very often used together and there's no reason to remove the template. Please add reliable sources before removing the template. FuriouslySerene ( talk) 16:09, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
Why no discussion of the thousands of people who inadvertently get placed into Sabbath mode on their electric appliances and have no way to override it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.224.90.183 ( talk) 23:56, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
