This manually-managed list is made redundant because of the Windows Vista category. It would have been better if the list were maintained topically, but the hassles of manually managing the list, given the proliferation of Windows Vista related articles far outweighs the benefits. Instead, the automated indexing using categories is a much better alternative, IMO, and has an added advantage of automated (though, pretty limited) sorting. As for the sidebar, the link can directly link to the categories. soum ^talk 10:56, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Convert to Category & Delete assuming it hasn't been done yet. There is no sub-sorting within the list to warrent a seperate page for it. A category will do it much better. Turlo Lomon 11:07, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete. Everything that might have anything to do with Windows Vista is far too broad for a list. :Category:Windows Vista already exists. A similar list was deleted a couple months ago. Someguy1221 20:50, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
