 * It is interesting that the def suggests that "battery-backed save" is the saved data, rather than the saving process or technology itself. That's probably just sloppy editing, though...? Equinox ◑ 11:28, 8 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Is it? I'm not sure this is verifiable--Google Books doesn't come up with anything--and the web hits as often as not mention "battery-backed save feature", but web hits for "don't overwrite my save" shows a number of uses of "save" for the saved data. It doesn't turn up anything on Google Books, but Google Groups might turn up something.--Prosfilaes (talk) 12:28, 8 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Just like "game save" I think it can refer to both the process of saving and the saved data itself, with the saved data being the more commonly used meaning due to being the more commonly needed meaning. --WikiTiki89 13:34, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
 * BTW, keep, but I'd move to battery-backed, because it does not just mean backed by battery, but specifically that if the battery were to die, it [the save in this case] would disappear. --WikiTiki89 13:40, 8 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete as fairly transparent--sum of parts. Note: This is barely attested: . --Dan Polansky (talk) 22:18, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
