Proposed deletions

I'm planning to delete section Faults and failures since although not wrong is off topic. Also planning to delete the paragraph with "software product caters" since also far off topic.

@Furkanakkurt8015: wanted to tag you since I see you modified the fault section reacently. Hope you don't mind if I ax it. Stevebroshar (talk) 20:27, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
