Simply put, VMOS fails to satisfy WP:GNG (alternatively, WP:ORG), and the only reliable source I could find that meaningfully covers the subject is this article by XDA Developers. The other citations on this article are links to unreliable or primary sources, or the sources cover the subject in non-significant detail. See also WP:FORBESCON, which limits Forbes articles written by contributors, such as this one, to those written by subject-matter experts or that have also appeared in the print edition of the magazine.

- Weak delete: Even the XDA article is labeled as sponsored news. The other sources in the article look very sketchy. There's a bit of coverage in journal articles, but not quite enough. This is the only source that goes beyond a very brief overview of VMOS, and even that source analyzes six different VMs. There's brief overviews in [1], [2].

- Delete the sources are not fully or significantly focused on the software and thus fails to satisfy GNG as the nominator noted. Insillaciv (talk) 08:44, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
