The result was redirect to List of Macintosh software. Regardless of whether we should delete the current contents, it makes sense to have that redirect there. Mangojuicetalk 14:26, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] List of Apple software
Delete. This information is better presented as a category. Which we already have: Category:Apple software. AlistairMcMillan 20:20, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Nothing else to say. Yomanganitalk 22:00, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Macintosh software. Thryduulf 22:04, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
redirect.Kappa 11:44, 12 September 2006 (UTC)- Delete per nom. Is this a list of software only for the Macintosh? If so, then a redirect to List of Macintosh software is appropriate. However, if this includes software for antiques like the Apple II, then a redirect is inappropriate. Is it permissible to redirect to a category (i.e. Category:Apple software? Also note that List of Macintosh software has also been nominated for deletion. I have voted keep on that AFD. --Richard 17:45, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Good point. Kappa 23:34, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Any list(s) of pre-Mac Apple software would be best handled in separate list(s), otherwise they would be completely overwhelmed by the Mac stuff. If/when multiple lists exist this page could become a disambig between them. Until then we should redirect and add a topline disambig to List of Macintosh software along the lines of: "List of Apple software" redirects here, for other systems see "...".

- Categorise/Delete, indiscriminate collection of information. GarrettTalk 10:32, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- While I don't think this is a particularly useful list, I don't see how it is an indisciminate collection of information? Thryduulf 01:10, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Macintosh software per Thryduulf (and I, too, voted "Keep" for that one). Michael Kinyon 12:11, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
