Requested move/dated|ThinkPad T Series Laptops}}
User:Trevor coelho/ThinkPad T Series Laptops → ThinkPad T Series Laptops – This is a new page. I created it since the different series of ThinkPad laptops aren't really represented on Wikipedia. I'm a new user and have created the page as closely in keeping with Wikipedia's guidelines as possible - I'd appreciate any feedback, and input in case I've made any errors (this is my first attempt at creating a Wikipedia page). I'm planning on slowly introducing pages for all major products from Lenovo - like the different product series, and the various product lines (ThinkCentre, ThinkStation, IdeaCentre, and so on - which aren't represented on Wikipedia at all).
Since this page hasn't been reviewed (except by me) I didn't want to put an uncontroversial move request. Accordingly, I'm requesting a move this way, which I hope will allow the page to be checked and then moved to live Wikipedia.

I further moved it because we normally do not ened to qualify a brand name with the products it brands, unless there is some ambiguity. So far the only ThinkPad T series is for laptops that I know of.
Hi,
I've added categories to the T Series page, but when I use Wikipedia's search function to look for it, I can't find it. Is the redirect function involved in this, somehow? If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it.

Follow up: moved as proposed, and T series is now a disambiguation page. T Series perhaps not needed since search "does the right thing" and T-Series is kept to point to the India song label, since there are many links to that one, with a hatnote. W Nowicki ( talk) 20:23, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
Very doubtful, since the T20 was not announced until 2001. Suspect a typo in the source, since that is what it says. This is just a blog entry anyway, so it not a reliable source. Alas, there are many citations to this posting. They probably all need better sources. W Nowicki ( talk) 22:20, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
My T420 barely lasts 3 1/2 hours on a brand new 9 cell battery, and 2 hours on the 6 cell, under light load. Running with an i5-2540m and Windows 10. Is this referring to battery life in sleep mode? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryankrage77 ( talk • contribs) 13:56, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
The image on the left does not show one of the last IBM Thinkpad models. From T40 on, they had a touchpad additional to the TrackPoint. This one is either a T20,T21,T23 or T30. The last model that was (at least partially) made by IBM was the T43. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.178.234.88 ( talk) 00:04, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
Is this marketing material or dictionary? Where are the models like T21 or T61? Searched information for T61 and found out this obscure wikipedia article. //arl
Much of the History section might be better presented as a table. There are also several places throughout that sound like marketing copy, making unsubstantiated value judgments (e.g. "powerful") or using press terminology as fact instead of quoting those sources (e.g. "arch-rival"). 216.50.142.194 ( talk) 21:47, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

The list includes the T450s but skips the T450. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.71.1.1 ( talk) 05:06, 29 July 2016 (UTC)
I like the narrative structure but the first Lenovo T-series laptops are missing from this post. Copy indicates that they're "replaced" by the W-series but it would be more logical to include these here.

That information has been incorrect. They both models have a 2 DIMM slots (one for a top side of mainboard and one of bottom side). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.154.157.20 ( talk) 19:28, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

The color coding added to the table in the last few edits is, in my opinion, quite ecvessive and just makes the whole thing harder to read, as it makes all the cells disjointed from each other and makes things look u organized. Many of them are also highly subject to opinion on the thresholds. Who's to say that everyone agrees 1080p screens are "just ok" (yellow) and 1440p is the threshold for green? Or that 16 GB of memory is "just ok", 32 GB is the threshold for good, and 8 GB is poor (red)? Keep in mind this also highly depends on historical context, as 8 GB was quite a good amount for the older models at the time they were released. Should we also start marking all the processors on the older models as red too, even the i7s, since they are not very good by today's standards? Personally I think it was fine (better, even) the way it was before. GlenwingKyros ( talk) 08:32, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
This is getting ridiculous. The amount and complexity of color coding is extremely excessive now, it takes several pages of scrolling just to get through the legends. This is entirely unnecessary and adds far too much clutter to the page. GlenwingKyros ( talk) 15:49, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
Making a custom browser extension or asking WP to implement a B&W mode are frankly ridiculous "solutions" to this, and I am sure this is obvious to you. Color codes become less useful when they are used excessively. I didn't realize you were doing this to all the other laptop pages too. This truly is something that would be much better handled with drafts, subject to more extensive review, instead of making hundreds of changes to the live article trying to tune it and get it "just right". And there is a difference between providing some color coding for ease of identifying a few key aspects, and the extremely excessive and complex system that you've implemented. GlenwingKyros ( talk) 20:53, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
At what point do enough Wikipedians have to complain to solve this issue. It seems to me that only one user is advocating for these changes, while all others seem to disagree with them. I’m working on a decluttered version in my sandbox at the present, which I believe can solve most of the colour coding issues and reduce confusion. 1832 Heritage ( talk) 07:08, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
The official lenovo PDF pages contains following information about T400 discrete graphics: "GM45 chipset; switchable, but Vista only". Chipset PM45 is not listed as all, models with integrated video have a same GM45 chipset. Anyone have ideas about this? 176.59.110.177 ( talk) 13:16, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
Someone undid my upgrade of the memory limits of 6th and 7th Gen Intel U processors. I found the supposed real limits at a RAM vendor (speicher.de). I find that Crucial usually sticks to the official limit even when extended compatibility is proven. 217.162.112.133 ( talk) 21:16, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
The site also shows that the T420 and T420s support 16GiB RAM, as confirmed by users. As an additional check, it shows the T410 supporting only 8GiB RAM. 217.162.112.133 ( talk) 22:47, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
T470s reddit user confirmed that 32GiB Samsung module works. 217.162.112.133 ( talk) 01:51, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

I think the compatibility table is not accurate. 217.162.74.13 ( talk) 14:29, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
What checks do I need to perform to fill out a table? I do have a T440s, given to me by my cousin. It is not modded. 93.57.124.163 ( talk) 10:51, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
