Discussion about prefix centralization took place here in 2005

A lot of them from decades ago show examples of: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Gaming_the_system Not sure if anything of value was lost. Some of them show historical documentation of attempting to re-revise history, ironically, enough. That might be interesting. 47.221.237.206 ( talk) 21:59, 19 June 2022 (UTC) reply

This revisionist derp trying to pretend a kilobyte is 1000 bytes is offensive ignorant nonsense. It should be deleted. 46.7.188.106 ( talk) 01:00, 23 August 2023 (UTC) reply

I agree. I had added information how popular software such as Firefox and Chrome use 1024 B = 1 KB 1024 KB = 1 MB and someone deleted it. This is when we need level headed moderators since I added facts and someone just deletes it without giving his reason. Vmelkon ( talk) 03:53, 14 October 2023 (UTC) reply
