I re-added iPadOS to the Operating System section. Please don't remove it again as the iPads that are currently supported use iPadOS as the operating system. iPads with Apple A9 and newer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.119.103.248 (talk) 19:36, June 5, 2021 (UTC)

Addition of the COI tag[edit]
@Alexceltare2 I do not understand were you are coming from. I agree that the article is not the most NPOV ever, but the {{COI}} is only meant for the cases where there has been only one specific contributor to the article and they have a clear established COI. The person listed at the top of the page has contributed to about 0.4% of the edits to the page and is hardly a major contributor. Sohom (talk) 21:07, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Agreed. The COI tag is being misapplied in this case.-- Ponyobons mots 21:14, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Regardless, this does not give you the right to remove the tag since there is a clear bias in the article. Furthermore, you have still not clarified your WP:COI situation with Google. Most, if not all the good articles out there have a Controversy section and this article is clearly omitting one, especially at a time when Google is getting a lot of flak for its anti-competitive behaviours (banning AdBlocks, IP Protection, data harvesting, Topics API...just to name a few) and a lot of users are switching browsers as a boycott. I suggest that you and the fellow readers come up with a better tag until this issue is resolved. -Alexceltare2 (talk) 21:21, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Alexceltare2Feel free to use to {{NPOV}} tag if you want. From my perspective, it just seems like the article is not up-to-date with the latest coverage (and so maybe the {{update}} tag would be better in this scenario).
- I don't understand what needs to be clarified regarding my "COI situation". As mentioned on my userpage, 4 years ago, I recieved a stipend as part of a Google sponsored 3 month student program to make code contributions (and only code contributions) to improve ProofreadPage. I don't think that has effect on my contributions here at all. I'm literally actively agreeing that the article is not NPOV and just pointing out that your usage of the {{COI}} tag was inappropriate. Sohom (talk) 21:41, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- I'm satisfied with that. Alexceltare2 (talk) 00:58, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
