The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Time scale
[edit]When did the PBI'84 experiments take place? The fact it used a PDP-11 constrains it to between 1970 and 1997 (the latter range is very unlikely), but I suppose the "84" is a clue... Hairy Dude (talk) 06:57, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
