IOS was a good articles nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There may be suggestions below for improving the article. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

I recommend splitting the section titled "Security and Privacy" into a new article as it contains too much detail that would be better off on its own. Maybe also reducing the detail in the "Jailbreaking" section. Please discuss. Mseingth2133444 (Did I mess up? Let me know here) 16:07, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's useful information to have, but I agree that it might be better off in its own article, together with the jailbreak stuff. The primary reason for my thinking is that it's more technical information that requires a slightly deeper level of technical understanding, which clashes a bit with the rest of the article.
We can always transclude lighter, more summarized parts from the new security article into the iOS article and slap a hatnote on it that refers to the new security article. ConcurrentState (talk) 18:23, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say go ahead and be bold. This talk page doesn't seem that active and if it turns out to be contentious it's easily reversed and discussed. ConcurrentState (talk) 03:06, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good at first blush. I'll spend some more time on it tomorrow to see if any improvements could be made and to class it. ConcurrentState (talk) 07:24, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Mseingth2133444, I've bumped the class to B because it seems to meet the 6 criteria listed for B over at WP:ASSESS. Also added a banner shell with wikiproject banners from projects that I think would be a good fit.
I'll see if I can find some time this weekend I can dedicate to the new article and the general iOS article's S&P section. Ideally I'd transclude something digestible (whether already existing or something I created) from the new S&P article into the S&P section on the general iOS article.

Improving this article
The article is way too long to comfortably read, maybe split it into multiple? Also how is only C-class? In my eyes it's at least B. Mseingth2133444 (talk/contribs) 01:35, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
iOS is coming up on twenty years in existence. I'd say it requires a significant amount of wordage, though I'm sure it can be tightened up. Seasider53 (talk) 01:46, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
level-5 vital article is rated C-class on Wikipedia's content assessment scale.
