Merger

Not in favor of merge. This is not a technical website, this is for beginners and improvers who appreciate things that are kept simple, I know I was a beginner once also!

Hi.

"This is not a technical website, this is for beginners and improvers...".

Actually I don't think that's true. This is supposed to be an encyclopedia, that does not exclude being technical.

In either case, the 7805 and the 7812 are basically the same except for a few specs. No point duplicating the content in two separate articles when they could easily be combined into one.

That said, I'm not even sure if those articles belong here in the first place. -Roger (talk) 17:26, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The articles should be combined in something like 78xx with a table describing the differences between the members of the whole family. Moonkey (talk) 18:09, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it makes the most sense to have one article for the whole 78xx line (which should include the other common ICs in this family (7810, 7815, 7824, etc) too, IMHO). These are all basically the same device, just with different output voltage. There's nowhere near enough unique content to justify multiple articles (especially since this article is arguably a stub as it is). -- Foogod (talk) 01:29, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
