This diagram has problems with educational usefulnes, because it implies several blatantly wrong statements:
- implies that Linux kernel directly interfaces with user space software;
- implies lack of keyboard and/or mouse input for servers and embedded devices.
Provided that it does not highlight any concept in more or less accessible way, I believe it should be deleted. – Czarkoff (talk) 13:09, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
Keep According to Commons:Scope#File_in_use_in_another_Wikimedia_project, this file must be kept because it's in use in other Wikimedia projects. If you think it shouldn't be used, you need to go to those projects and convince local communities to stop using it before requesting its deletion in Commons.--Pere prlpz (talk) 16:48, 14 June 2014 (UTC)- Keep it does not imply any of your claims. It is explains in a visual matter, how the hardware periphery and the en:Shell (computing) are related to one another. It also shows, how the Linux kernel is used on different types of computers, and puts this into relation with the user-space software. I could go as far as calling this deletion proposal a blatant stupidity. My router, which happens to run Linux, does not have a keyboard, e.g. It is supposed to be managed via HTTP/Telnet/SSH.
