Question from Ward Christensen (main subject of this article)

I tried adding "myself" as a reference, to state that the contents was accurate etc.

However, it REPLACED the existing contents, even though I didn't delete anything when editing.

First?

CBBS started in 1978, but QZ KOM also started in 1978. // Liftarn (talk) 21:27, 30 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

That's very cool. Randy and I claim "first" only because we have never found anything proceeding it in terms of a "classic" BBS, (partly because I made up the name - patterned after the grocery store cork board push-pin bulletin boards) ... i.e. hobbyist supported, running on a microcomputer.

Anyone is welcome to challenge the 'first' for credit where due! — Preceding unsigned comment added by WardXmodem (talkcontribs) 16:41, 13 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
