Computer History Wiki

The citations in this article do not reach to the level of significant coverage of the subject, rather they are just mentioned. I don't believe this meets the criteria of WP:N or WP:WEB. ... disco spinster   talk  17:20, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Author comment - Despite both having worked with the OS/8 operating system and on the Wikipedia OS/8 article, I hadn't looked at the Computer History Wiki ("CHWiki" for short) article on the subject until now. The Wikipedia article, alas, didn't even mention the "SQuish" command, just referring to
 * Quote option to compress ("squeeze") the filesystem so all unallocated space was moved to a single extent at the end of the disk. (endQuote)

No mention of the SQuish command itself. My oversight. Wikipedia oversight. CHWiki had it! That's just one example. Admittedly this is like IBM vs. The BUNCH, and the CHWiki people can continue, with or without notable writeups (and Wikipedia). Pi314m (talk) 12:32, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
