Comment wouldn't that restrict it to genuine Zilog, instead of being inclusive of compatible, licensed, and clone chips? -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 09:20, 20 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
NOTE the category states that it also covers the Intel 8080 (the predecessor to the Z80), so it seems the scope of the category is mismatched with its name. And since it would therefore contain Intel and Zilog based chips, and the chips are expected to be reported as Z80 compatible or 8080 compatible, of those which are neither Zilog nor Intel, a full discussion is in order to find the proper name of this category. -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 09:24, 20 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
As to the Z80 / 8080 issue, then that's because the architecture of the two processors is so similar (the Z80 is a superset) that there was broad software commonality between them (CP/M being the obvious example), whilst the 6502 family remained distinct. The Z80 soon replaced the 8080 and so 8080-alone machines (which do have some historical noteworthiness) is likely to fail WP:SMALLCAT and so has already been merged to the Z80s.
