January 2022, clean up hat notes
The notability tag was removed since synchronous conferencing is not merely another name for chat, but is a specific kind of chat, as opposed to asynchronous conferencing which is a closely related but different kind of chat. Also removed the multiple issues tag, by virtue of it becoming inapplicable due to the more citations needed tag becoming the sole remaining issue with the article which is worthy of a hat note.

Requested move 25 April 2024
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
– These seem to be more common terms in recent technical papers, and are more unambiguous than "conferencing", which suggests group-based formal discussion (especially video chatting) rather than encompassing many kinds of communication.
