Allegations of plagiarism by automated bot
This article was written from scratch and if there is any similarity to the alleged source article, it is purely coincidental.

I do *not* intend poring through the whole of the (extremely long) linked webpage to figure out which tiny portion the bot thinks I have supposedly copied. It is the responsibility of the party making the allegation to point this out.

 * Additional; as I understand it, this is (according the the link in the removed boilerplate) the results generated by the tool used to detect the alleged similarity. If this is correct, it makes the supposed plagiarism allegation even more laughable, because there's nothing there any remotely competent human editor would consider plagiarism.

 * You're right, it's a false positive and has been marked as one. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! Acather96 (talk) 06:42, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Merge proposal for printers using same ALPS mechanism
It's well-known that a number of printers used the same ALPS mechanism (e.g. the Atari 1020, Commodore 1520, etc.; see article) and someone proposed a merger around the "parent" printer that these are all effectively versions of.

However, I can only find one reference pointing out the specific model that all these printers are supposedly built around. This article claims that it's an ALPS "DPG1302" print head assembly (which implies that it was never released as a printer in its own right). IMHO, one reference isn't enough to warrant that suggestion; if we can find more, it might be workable.
