== Size of the "controversy" section ==

I think the "controversy" section could easily be pruned to a more manageable size, rather than consisting of a chronological account of every twist and turn of the issue, but [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unity_(user_interface)&oldid=prev&diff=736602332 others disagree]. Per [[WP:WEIGHT]], individual controversies shouldn't dominate the article.

:I agree, it is going to be discintinued, but it isn't yet. Presumably Unity 7 will be maintained until Ubuntu 16.04 LTS reached EOL in April 2021. - [[User:Ahunt|Ahunt]] ([[User talk:Ahunt|talk]]) 15:06, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

''Gathered?'' I was not expecting that verb, there, hard stop. &mdash; [[user:MaxEnt|MaxEnt]] 00:53, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

:Yup, makes no sense, not relevant either and, even if it was, it would not belong in the lede. Removed and {{fixed}}. -[[User:Ahunt|Ahunt]] ([[User talk:Ahunt|talk]]) 01:09, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
