 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * File:Windows XP Luna.png = fair use = Non-free media rationale for Windows XP claimed

 * File:RoyaleXP2.PNG = Non-free media information and use rationale for Windows XP = fair use
 * File:Windows Security Center XP SP2.png = Non-free media rationale for Security and Maintenance = fair use

 * 1) Overall:
 * Extended Support ceased April 2019;
 * The medical industry's continued use of Windows XP is partly due to medical applications being incompatible with later versions of Windows.
 * Considering Prose size (including all HTML code): 60 kB &Rarr; WP:SIZERULE the article is at the limits of readable prose. In the light of this guideline, the following is observed:
 * Following sections have their own main articles
 * Development
 * New and Updated Features
 * Removed features
 * Editions
 * Consider that Service Packs and End of Support might merit their own articles.


 * Article still merits GA status.        --Whiteguru (talk) 10:05, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
