List of computer programs by Operating System

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unclear to me that this has any encyclopedic value. The article looks more like something you'd find in operating systems for dummies and is pretty much original research, despite the fact that entries are verifiable (note however that the list is woefully incomplete). Also unclear how to maintain this page in the future: should we remove an item from the list once the program has become largely obsolete? Pascal.Tesson 21:41, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete If software is notable, then it'll appear in a category. We don't need a category duplicated here.  AlistairMcMillan 22:38, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete - Should be a category, not a list. -- Chairman S. Talk  Contribs  00:52, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
