Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DOS.MASTER

A computer utility. Article has been speedied and reposted a couple of times, looks like consensus might be needed. Hynca-Hooley 00:42, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"This is a significant utility due to the fact that it enabled previously ProDOS incompatible programs to be run under ProDOS." I'm blown away. Delete. Aplomado - U T C 00:59, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - unless people more versed in Apple II stuff chime in . -Oscar Arias 01:28, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This Google search gives only 109 results, and not all of those are even related to this program. Non-notable. -- Mithent 01:34, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Ghesh guys, give me a chance to build this up. --PZ 01:55, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep GHits not relevant to something that was obsolete before the web was invented (when the card catalog was a file system and the search engine was your fingers). Based on the article, notable as part of computer history. Needs more encyclopedic style, maybe some comments and refs from old Apple magazines. Thatcher131 03:38, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification If it can be expanded a bit more, keep as a separate article linked to the relevant Apple II articles. However, I would also support merging into Apple DOS. Thatcher131 04:04, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, per Thatcher.--ragesoss 04:57, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Thatcher. Or, at the least, merge it into the Apple DOS article. I don't know if it's all that notable, but those who find out about DOS.MASTER from the Apple DOS article can probably find documentation from the external links as needed. (And back in the day when I had an Apple II, hard drives were hideously expensive and limited in capacity to 20 MB or so. Ah, the days.) --E lkman - ^(talk) 05:03, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Apple DOS. I guess WP:SOFTWARE is useful here, eve if it's not official yet, and nothing in the article or this discussion convinces me its criteria are met. Sandstein 05:30, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Thatcher or else merge with Apple Dos. --Ter e nc e Ong 05:32, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into ProDOS, or weak keep; it's much more relevant to ProDOS than to Apple DOS. --moof 08:39, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or Keep and update - in that order as per Thatcher and others of that view. V i r tualSteve 08:49, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Thatcher. --S iva1979^{Talk to me} 14:06, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
