Not moved. Some reorganization will be done instead. ~Kvng (talk) 14:19, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

This old, formerly unexplained Windows bug has been explained completely in a recently published YouTube video. Unfortunately, the explanation in the Wikipedia article is wrong, and the YouTube article doesn't look like a suitable source. The video does say how to reproduce the bug though, which I believe hasn't been done before. Someone familiar with what sources might work in an article like this should have a look. Thanks! --Renerpho (talk) 19:35, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As this is a highly active WikiProject, I would like to introduce you to Credibility bot. This is a bot that makes it easier to track source usage across articles through automated reports and alerts. We piloted this approach at Wikipedia:Vaccine safety and we want to offer it to any subject area or domain. We need your support to demonstrate demand for this toolkit. If you have a desire for this functionality, or would like to leave other feedback, please endorse the tool or comment at WP:CREDBOT. Thanks! Harej (talk) 17:44, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is someone interested to take on creating a HP Spectre article (currently redirects)? Despite being a known and notable high end product line it lacks an article strangely. Chiffonr (talk) 18:22, 18 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article PDP-9 says: "The 18-bit PDP systems preceding the PDP-9 were the PDP-1, PDP-4 and PDP-7. Its successor was the PDP-15." Wasn't the PDP-8 in there? Also, the predecessor/successor in the info box don't include the PDP-8. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 03:46, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I see that these are 18-bit computers, whereas the PDP-8 line are 12-bit computers. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 04:43, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
