Talk:PowerPC 5000

Article title
I can't find any evidence of Freescale using the name "PowerPC 5000" for this product line. Surely something like "MPC5000" or "MPC5xxx" would be more appropriate? (Cf. MPC5xx). Letdorf (talk) 21:02, 25 January 2011 (UTC).
 * I chose the name so it tied in more clearly with other PowerPC offerings and it would be easy to see them as part of a larger family: PowerPC 750, PowerPC 603, PowerPC 7400, PowerPC 440, PowerPC 970, and so forth. The MPC moniker is a part of Motorola/Freescale's naming scheme for individual PowerPC/PowerQUICC/Power Architecture parts, this article covers a part of a that family. I would've named the MPC5xx article PowerPC 500 for the same reason if I had been the one who wrote it initially. That said, I do see your point and wouldn't oppose a change. -- Henriok (talk) 23:25, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree consistency is good in an encyclopedia, but only when there is consistency to be found in the topic being described - if some PowerPC-architecture products aren't identified by the "PowerPC" brand then WP should reflect this, and not invent its own names, IMHO.
