Move debate

"MicroVAX" is the official name, not "Micro-VAX". At present, Micro-VAX is a real article and MicroVAX redirects to it — all of which was done for good reasons at the time. I suggest we move this article to "MicroVAX". Unfortunately, "MicroVAX" has been edited (it used to redirect to "VAX"), and non-admins such as myself cannot do that move. Following Wikipedia:Requested moves, I've put a request there and here. If you object, or want to support this overlarge effort to squash a very small bug, please add to this page.

Support. As a rule, I usually try to work around misguided redirects (e.g. MicroVAX), considering how difficult inclusionists make it to delete/reverse such actions once they are in place. Hence, the decision to use the improper name. Good luck trying to move this entry. Folajimi 16:11, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Other models

Need to add the MicroVAX III (under Mayfair I guess) and VAX 4 (possibly in its own section) upgrades. Letdorf (talk) 12:50, 27 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Will do. Do you know of any sources I can use? Rilak (talk) 05:57, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

VAX 4000

Should mention MicroVAX brand was superseded by the VAX 4000 series? Letdorf (talk) 13:08, 27 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Done. Rilak (talk) 05:50, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

MicroVAX 3100 Model 95

Is the introduction date wrong? Here is an article which says the Model 95 was introduced in September 1992 (see page 60): http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/20th/vmsbook.pdf Unfortunately, I do not know which one is correct. --Tingo99 (talk) 15:34, 15 January 2011 (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. T

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_Offline 08:12, 20 January 2014 (UTC)his, 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.[reply]

More blacklist

The article contains a link to hhttp://www.cbronline.com/news/dec which is a typo because there is no such think as hhttp. But it won't let me fix it, because of a blacklist. Art LaPella (talk) 16:03, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
