[edit] Welcome to Mac OS window
Fails to assert any notability, also don't see how this subject matter is important in any way. This is also an indiscriminate collection of information, for which Wikipedia is not. (→O - RLY?) 16:46, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Not a notable function of the Mac OS. The article is definitely indiscriminate in nature too. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 17:06, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

- Delete now this is an example of a trivial matter. It may well be documented in official Apple material, or even descriptions of running MacOS, however, the appropriate way to cover this would be something like the OS version, or possibly Mac OS startup process instead. More preferable would be if it has some sort of documented name as used by Apple, in which case you could make something like Apple Keychain or Sherlock (software). Of course, this may already exist, but you'd have to ask the folks at WP:MAC. I'm not familiar enough to say. However, I wouldn't refer to the policies on WP:NOT as none of the examples truly apply. Just say "This is too minor a subject to merit coverage in its own individual article" instead. FrozenPurpleCube 19:08, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. This just documents a splash screen for a now semi-obsolete version of the Macintosh Operating System, says where you see it. I think anyone who has used OS9 on a Mac knows where they'll find it. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 21:24, 23 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per lack of notability. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 07:03, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- Click the close box Probably merits a blurb in Mac OS, but that's it. Blueboy96 20:36, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
