Question about the distrowatch citation?
There is a statement in the lead that I think should be clarified: "According to DistroWatch, Fedora is the third most popular Linux-based operating system as of December 2010, behind Ubuntu and Mint." The citation itself only points to http://www.distrowatch.com and doesn't specify where or how it got that data. It matches the "Page Hit Ranking" found on the right side of the site, but this data is true only for the "Last 6 months" option. I'm not really sure if it should be re-worded to clarify the statement given, or re-worded to "According to DistroWatch, Fedora was the second most popular Linux-based operating system in 2010, behind Ubuntu." as that data does not change and reflects an entire year as opposed to a constantly changing "Last 6 months". Personally I'd change it to the "Year 2010" data, as it does not change, but I wanted to discuss it here first.- SudoGhost (talk) 02:58, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Split Releases Section
Now that we have a section for sixteen total releases, I feel it would be best if the Releases section be split into it's own article, such as "List of Fedora Releases" or something like that. That way the main Fedora article can be focused on the operating system itself and that article can list every single version of it. The current layout seems clumsy and poorly thought out.

- As no arguments were raised, I have proceeded to split the section into a new article, which can be found at List of Fedora versions. I have kept the version table in the main article for use as a general summary, and added a "Main article" redirect for those wishing to see the rest of the content.
