I note that there's a link at the bottom to other articles about obsolete technology.

Bizarrely, the dates given for VHS video's existence are "1983 - 2016". Surely someone at the BBC was born when the home video boom of the very early 1980s happened and can remember that VHS was very well established indeed by '83.
