This website was started on December 30, 2017. I hope to make it a comprehensive resource for all things relating to the TI 99/4A home computer. Please feel free to create a login, and contribute, so that this resource can become awesome. The format for TI-99/4A-Pedia (url as of 06/01/2020 is simplified as 4Apedia.com) is a wiki using MediaWiki, the same software that powers Wikipedia and other related websites like Commons, Wiktionary, and WikiNews. A wiki format allows anyone who wishes to become a contributor by adding or editing pages as they see fit. However, any additions must be consistent with the theme and tone of 4Apedia.com. Any content added that doesn't focus on the TI-99/4 or TI-099/4A home computer systems, its software, hardware, and persons of note associated with these computers will be deleted. For example, on May 19, 2020, user Moosejaw became the second contributor after the site creator Clayton. You can see Moosejaw's contribution by visiting Burger Builder.
