Talk:VAX 6000

Untitled

Should probably mention the two common ways of presenting the model number (ie. "VAX 6000 Model xy0" or "VAX 6xy0"). Letdorf (talk) 13:05, 27 October 2008 (UTC).

Yes, it should be mentioned. I know that Digital switched to the "VAX 6000 Model xy0" scheme at some point, but did the previous models which used the original scheme get renamed to match the new scheme? Rilak (talk) 06:00, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Model 300 code name?

A Boston Globe article (John Wilke. "Hot New Computer Extends A Peppy Line". 23 January 1989.) claims the Model 300 was code named "Turbo Calypso". This article, using information from the VAX article as a basis, claims it was "Hyperion". Which one is right? Rilak (talk) 10:57, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

 Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 00:28, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
