Keyboards by size

Is there somewhere, on the wiki or elsewhere, where I can find a list of vintage keyboards by size? Minitouches and Kishsavers in one category, then TKLish keyboards, then full-size, then the cruisers and battleships?

Sounds like a job for categories. In fact—found it by looking up SSK and scrolling down to the bottom where categories always lie in wikis—looks like size is a category already:

wiki/Category:Keyboards_by_form_factor

One criticism I'd make is the unnecessary hierarchy. Click on compact and you'll find it's much more granular than the three you'll see here: none of which include regular "full-size" ~101 key keyboards! More elegant to have them all listed on one page, I think, in order of size.

Thanks. Agreed that the way they’re displayed could be better. Lots of modern ones in the small section, not many vintage: could do with updating. I’ll try to add some. But also some very interesting ones I hadn’t heard of…
