Line 25: :[[WP:NTEMP\|Is notability based on how long something has been 'dead']]? Even the article about [[ext2]] (the [[Linux]] filesystem) doesn't have this plethora of non-primary sources, while now the article about Amiga's [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Amiga_Old_File_System&curid=844938&diff=683907260&oldid=665962497 OFS has been tagged as one-source] by the editor who proposed this AfD. The article about the [[MINIX file system]] also has only one third-party source, while funnily enough, the other two sources are [[Andrew Tanenbaum]] and [[Linus Torvalds]]. Am I proposing that all these filesystems be considered for turning into oblivion from Wikipedia? Hell no. They are all pretty relevant, even if lengthy features in magazines or whatnot have not been pinpointed. But if nothing else, I ''will'' try to go for consistency on this encyclopedia if it is decided that only some roughly-equally-as-documented filesystems are not worthy of articles.

Regarding [[Amiga Old File System]]: that article has only one source, and I'd like to see more, but I'm not suggesting it be deleted because if what the article states can be corroborated, this should be a perfectly notable file system. [[User:Qwertyus\|Q<small>VVERTYVS</small>]] <small>([[User talk:Qwertyus\|hm?]])</small> 08:44, 4 October 2015 (UTC) * '''Keep''' As a general guidelines, I would agree that notability isn't inherited from a parent entity. But part of an enterprise like Wikipedia is a certain level of completeness. If I can find out every release date of Amiga and a changelog on that page, but not get any detail about a file system that ran on it, something is wrong. I would agree to a proposal to cut back some of the needlessly gory detail on the Amiga page and merge things like this article in, but the content on this page is worth keeping around and is in keeping with the other topics in this area.--[[Special:Contributions/69.204.153.39\|69.204.153.39]] ([[User talk:69.204.153.39\|talk]]) 20:53, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
