From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

To not keep you waiting any further, I want to let you know I'll probably not do that. Besides, I havent ever edited wikipedia.😅 I havent even tried the program yet. Thank you creating this, if I check the program in the future I'll see what I can do.
(I suppose you have talked to the appropriate wikipedia mainteners, right?)
Also if anyone else sees this and adds it, please let us know.
ah too bad. Maybe somebody will at some point.. before 2057.
