Digital electronic computer

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Completely uncited for years, and mostly redundant to Computer, or any of the other articles it references to say "this is not one of those". PROD was declined. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:12, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Computer. Unnecessary content fork. Jfire (talk) 17:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge & Redirect to computer, might have some good information in its own section there. Geardona (talk to me?) 18:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Computer: Redundant - just describes normal computers except for when it says (item) is not a digital electronic computer. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk)  19:50, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete: A digital electronic computer is what people think of when you tell them the word "computer" in 2024. This appears to have started out as some fork that got abandoned. Would be better suited in a discussion about computer history, Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace and the like. This is basically Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.

 * Comment: Are there even non-digital electronics? A power source can only have ON and OFF, ones and zeros are that. This makes no sense. Oaktree b (talk) 21:20, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment. Does too. Analogue electronics. Analog synthesizers. For instance. --Ouro (blah blah) 21:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Tagging @Oaktree b so he can come see. Thanks @PaulT2022. --Ouro (blah blah) 21:46, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * One more thing, don't confuse digital with discrete, see digital signal. --Ouro (blah blah) 21:51, 22 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge or Redirect to Computer. (One would think that #Modern computers would be a more suitable target, but there's something odd with how the target article is structured, describing ENIAC and Colossus before #Modern computing and Turing machine.) PaulT2022 (talk) 06:08, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge with Computer. The term electronic computer can encompass both purely electronic and electromechanic variants. After all, electromechanic computers which are used to describe explicitly Zuse's Z series work with electronic principles at core.VectorVoyager (talk) 10:50, 28 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete - Virtually all this information exists in other articles on wikipedia  Mr Vili   talk  04:06, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Computer: not necessary, article's content is encapsulated in the computer article Password  (talk) (contribs) 07:03, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
