:Please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe Microsoft has stated on several occasions that WSL is not based on virtualization or containerization. The WSL article also calls it a compatibility layer.

But when the first of the two terms in the temporary compound is itself a compound, the greater suspensive strength of the en dash is employed, as in "She wears '''jam jar–bottom glasses'''" or "The character's origins go all the way back to the golden egg–laying magic goose."
 
Alternately, these sentences can be styled with hyphens between the three words in each phrasal adjective, as in "She wears jam-jar-bottom glasses" and "The character's origins go all the way back to the golden-egg-laying magic goose."

This whole mess could be finessed by naming the page '''OS-level virtualization''' (parsing 'virtualization' >>> parsing 'OS').
 
But then I see a comment above that OS is walking into a corner, and maybe 'container' should be the head concept instead.
 
For my own notes, I decided on '''shared-kernel virtualization''' (or perhaps '''shared-kernel isolation'''). In the jails model, there ''isn't'' all that much virtualization in the base configuration, and mainly only the network stack in the advanced configuration.
 
By 'kernel' I actually mean (shared (kernel (process tree))). But it's confusing for a non-LISP person to spell that out.
