obsolete synonym. fgnievinski (talk) 13:59, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
Support- synonym is what the article says. Can't access the Data bank archived entry in 1037C for some reason. ~Kvng (talk) 15:07, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
- Support - good idea. Troels Arvin (talk) Troels Arvin (talk) 08:01, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

- @Fgnievinski Thanks_$@support 180.241.189.138 (talk) 06:54, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
- I have managed to reconnect with 1037C the data bank entry reads as follows
data bank: 1. A set of data related to a given subject and organized in such a way that it can be consulted by users. 2. A data repository accessible by local and remote users. (188) Note: A data bank may contain information on single or multiple subjects, may be organized in any rational manner, may contain more than one database, and may be geographically distributed. More than one data bank may be required to build a comprehensive database.
- It is not perfectly clear from this what the exact relationship between database and data bank but it doesn't appear to be a straight synonym. I am striking my Support !vote due to this uncertainty. ~Kvng (talk) 15:23, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
