Hello Drmies,
About the Wikipedia verifiability policy, the sources I provided for the list of models of Dell OptiPlexes used for citations came from Dell, if you had paid more attention to the PDF files about the Dell OptiPlex models I cited on the models list, you're going to see that the sources are from Dell.
And responding to the edit note of https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dell_OptiPlex&oldid=1119155792 (i have a suggestion. rather than run this Dell website/advertisement, full of product information sourced to the company, we do it like normal articles, and list/include models IF THEY ARE NOTABLE), keep in mind that the Dell OptiPlex model list has been around since this Wikipedia edit made to the Dell OptiPlex Wikipedia page on September 21, 2005 (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dell_OptiPlex&oldid=23698576); also, the Dell OptiPlex page isn't intended to be used for advertisement purposes, if you look at certain Wikipedia pages of computer models such as (e.g. ThinkPad T series, Dell Precision, List of Intel Pentium processors, etc.) you will see that they will list all the models of a product without missing anything.

Oh, I forgot to mention, this edit that was done back in September 4, 2006, includes the first appearance of the table list of OptiPlex models.

I will note you that on my second paragraph of my message that explains about the edit of the Dell OptiPlex webpage mentioning the removed table list of OptiPlex models, I used the missing anything term as an exaggeration, there are actually pre-2008 models missing on the table list of ThinkPad T-series laptops and there are also some models are also missing on the table list of the Dell Precision desktops (the table list of Precision desktops have citations too), but there was never a time where table list of models of these said PC products get taken down.
