DRS 6000 specification lists

It's undoubtedly interesting, but is it encyclopaedic? I'd be loath to remove it without knowing it was preserved somewhere else. --ClickRick (talk) 15:20, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would leave it in. Doubtless if it doesn't meet the criteria someone will delete it! Pterre (talk) 15:42, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fujitsu Siemens

Is it right that this division became FJS? DRS was the responsibility of Office Systems/Mid-Range Systems/Client-Server Systems. Had they merged when FJS was set up? Pterre (talk) 16:03, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My memory of the many reorganisations is now hazy, and I don't have anything else to go on, but I thought that it had all been brought into one unit before the transfer into FJS in 1999. In 1995 there existed an "ICL Volume Products Division". Mhkay (talk) 09:07, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm similarly hazy - I'll have a root around in the loft sometime to see if I have anything in writing. I'm fairly sure that Volume Products meant PCs and workstations, not servers. Pterre (talk) 13:01, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
