Message for some MAMEDev willing to modify some device descriptions, to make them uniform to all the rest. Carrying out a review of these descriptions in my "messinfo.dat" after a few years, I have noticed some of them unclear or uneven with other similar ones; here is the list, in the hope that some of you can observe it:
asst128_mb (src/mame/drivers/asst128.cpp) "ASST128_MOTHERBOARD" change to: "ASST128 Motherboard" at29c020 (src/devices/machine/at29x.cpp) "ATMEL 29C020 256Kx8 FEEPROM" change to: "Atmel 29C020 256Kx8 FEEPROM" at29c040 (src/devices/machine/at29x.cpp) "ATMEL 29C040 512Kx8 FEEPROM" change to: "Atmel 29C040 512Kx8 FEEPROM" at29c040a (src/devices/machine/at29x.cpp) "ATMEL 29C040A 512Kx8 FEEPROM" change to: "Atmel 29C040A 512Kx8 FEEPROM" athlonxp (src/devices/cpu/i386/i386.cpp) "Amd Athlon XP" change to: "AMD Athlon XP" c64_fcc (src/devices/bus/c64/fcc.cpp) "Final ChessCard" change to: "C64 Final ChessCard" cga_pc1512 (src/devices/bus/isa/cga.cpp) "ISA8_CGA_PC1512" change to: "ISA8 CGA PC1512" cga_poisk2 (src/devices/bus/isa/cga.cpp) "ISA8_CGA_POISK2" change to: "ISA8 CGA POISK2" cga_superimpose (src/devices/bus/isa/cga.cpp) "ISA8_CGA_SUPERIMPOSE" change to: "ISA8 CGA SUPERIMPOSE" es5510 (src/devices/cpu/es5510/es5510.cpp) "ES5510" change to: "Ensoniq ES5510" gba_cart_slot (src/devices/bus/gba/gba_slot.cpp) "Game Boy Advance Cartridge Slot" change to: "GBA Cartridge Slot" gba_rom_3dmatrix (src/devices/bus/gba/rom.cpp) "3D Matrix Memory Mapper" change to: "GBA 3D Matrix Memory Mapper" gfxdecode (src/emu/drawgfx.cpp) "gfxdecode" change to: "GFX decode" i80130 (src/devices/machine/i80130.cpp) "I80130" change to: "Intel I80130" ie15_cpu (src/devices/cpu/ie15/ie15.cpp) "ie15 CPU" change to: "IE15 CPU" imi5000h (src/devices/bus/imi7000/imi5000h.cpp) "IMI 5000H" change to: "IMI5000H" interpod (src/devices/bus/cbmiec/interpod.cpp) "Interpod" change to: "Interpod IEC to IEEE interface emulation" intv_cart_slot (src/devices/bus/intv/slot.cpp) "Intellivision Cartridge Slot" change to: "Mattel Intellivision Cartridge Slot" intv_ecs (src/devices/bus/intv/ecs.cpp) "Intellivision ECS Expansion" change to: "Mattel Intellivision ECS Expansion" intv_gfact (src/devices/bus/intv/rom.cpp) "Intellivision Game Factory Cart" change to: "Mattel Intellivision Game Factory Cart" intv_ram (src/devices/bus/intv/rom.cpp) "Intellivision Game Factory Cart" change to: "Mattel Intellivision Game Factory Cart" intv_rom (src/devices/bus/intv/rom.cpp) "Intellivision Standard Carts" change to: "Mattel Intellivision Standard Carts" intv_voice (src/devices/bus/intv/voice.cpp) "Intellivision Intellivoice Expansion" change to: "Mattel Intellivision Intellivoice Expansion" intv_wsmlb (src/devices/bus/intv/rom.cpp) "Intellivision World Series Baseball Cart" change to: "Mattel Intellivision World Series Baseball Cart" lc89510_temp (src/mame/machine/megacdcd.cpp) "lc89510_temp_device" change to: "LC89510 Temporary device" ncr8496 (src/devices/sound/sn76496.cpp) "NCR8496" change to: "NCR 8496" nes_bcbattle (src/devices/bus/nes_ctrl/bcbattle.cpp) "Epoch Barcode Battler (FC)" change to: "NES Cart Epoch Barcode Battler (FC)" paula_8364 (src/devices/machine/8364_paula.cpp) "8364 Paula" change to: "Commodore 8364 "Paula" pc9801_118 (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_118.cpp) "pc9801_118" change to: "NEC PC-9801-118 sound card" pc9801_26 (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_26.cpp) "pc9801_26" change to: "NEC PC-9801-26 sound card" pc9801_86 (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_86.cpp) "pc9801_86" change to: "NEC PC-9801-86 sound card" pc9801_amd98 (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_amd98.cpp) "pc9801_amd98" change to: "System Sacom AMD-98" pc9801_cd (src/mame/machine/pc9801_cd.cpp) "PC9801 CD-ROM Drive" change to: "NEC PC-9801 CD-ROM Drive" pc9801_kbd (src/mame/machine/pc9801_kbd.cpp) "PC-9801 Keyboard" change to: "NEC PC-9801 Keyboard" pc9801_sasi (src/devices/bus/scsi/pc9801_sasi.cpp) "PC9801 SASI Controller" change to: "NEC PC-9801 SASI Controller" pc9801_slot (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_cbus.cpp) "PC-9801 sound cbus slot" change to: "NEC PC-9801 sound cbus slot" pc9801_spb (src/devices/bus/cbus/pc9801_86.cpp) "NEC PC9801 SpeakBoard" change to: "NEC NEC PC-9801 SpeakBoard" pcnoppi_mb (src/devices/machine/genpc.cpp) "PCNOPPI_MOTHERBOARD" change to: "PCNOPPI Motherboard" pla (src/devices/machine/pla.cpp) "PLA" change to: "PLA (Programmable Logic Array)" ppu2c05_01 (src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp) "2C05_01 PPU" change to: "2C05 01 PPU" ppu2c05_02 (src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp) "2C05_02 PPU" change to: "2C05 02 PPU" ppu2c05_03 (src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp) "2C05_03 PPU" change to: "2C05 03 PPU" ppu2c05_04 (src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp) "2C05_04 PPU" change to: "2C05 04 PPU" saturn_segatap (src/devices/bus/sat_ctrl/segatap.cpp) "saturn_segatap_device" change to: "Sega Saturn SegaTap" vis_pcm (src/mame/drivers/vis.cpp) "vis_pcm" change to: "VIS PCM" vis_vga (src/mame/drivers/vis.cpp) "vis_vga" change to: "VIS VGA"
I have little confidence with GitHub, so I ask the kind help of someone more prepared than me. Thanks for your attention and a greeting to everyone.

Why would you change "Intellivision" to "Mattel Intellivision" but then "Game Boy Advance" to just "GBA"?

There is no standard.
