- The filter should tag unsourced BLP additions by IPs so that editors can review them for accuracy in a tagged-queue. Problem solved. Viriditas (talk) 05:23, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- Well , that is a sourced addition, but it sounds like a good idea. Of course BLP violations don't just happen to articles in Category:Living people, but we can take that as a good approximation. We then need to simply decide what constitutes an addition (or should it be any edit?) and what constitutes "unsourced". All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 12:48, 1 May 2015 (UTC).

- It was clearly sourced, but a source like that from an IP address should be treated with at least some skepticism. Assume good faith, but also verify. Gamaliel (talk) 15:59, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

- Is this not a problem for everyone on the planet? I've been here a while, and I find it as difficult to write on the Wiki as ever, technically, but now with added heaps of bureaucracy. Maury Markowitz (talk) 11:22, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- Although our article isn't clear, the TRS‑80 Model 4D was for sale until 1990, possibly as late as 1994. Rmhermen (talk) 22:58, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
- Apparently, there were a bunch of successors to the original TRS-80: List of TRS-80 and Tandy-branded computers. I recall using a Model4 (or something that looked very much like the picture of it in that list article) in the early 90s. Gamaliel (talk) 23:08, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
