PIC is not RISC

Including the

Atmel AVR microcontrollers which have nearly identical hardware but a sane and orthogonal instruction set. So I'm going to remove PIC from this template. MOXFYRE (contrib) 18:14, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply

Template:RISC-based processor architectures → Template:RISC architectures – The current name is overly verbose ("RISC-based processor" is redundant, it's understood that RISC relates to the processor), unwieldy, and potentially ambiguous ("processor architecture" could be reasonably construed to mean microarchitecture.). The current name is also unpleasant and makes little sense if the RISC acronym is expanded: reduced instruction set computer-based processor architecture. "RISC architectures" succinctly conveys the template's purpose. 99Electrons (talk) 01:34, 13 March 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. KCVelaga (talk) 14:59, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply

POWER is (still) not historic

There are POWER servers around and IBM is still releasing POWER chipsets. I am going to move it to "active" 93.172.61.203 (talk) 12:19, 3 February 2021 (UTC) Nevermind, I see the POWER is historic, while Power ISA is current[reply]
