'The "Linux" operating system's market share' edit

Usage share of operating systems contradicts this, stating Android Linux was way past 3% 10+ years before. Linux isn't an operating system (OS) but kernel used in various OS including the GNU/Linux & Android/Linux families and many other OS.--dchmelik☀️🕉︎☉🦉🐝🐍☤☆(talk 09:12, 15 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

When is it considered significant history edit

Copied directly from Historical Thinking and History Skills:

Historical significance is a decision that modern people make about what is important from our past. Significant events include those that resulted in great change over long periods of time for large numbers of people.


In terms of adding it to the timeline in present day, how do we know when it is considered significant enough to be added to the timeline? Semanticing (talk) 12:42, 21 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
