Re: Wikipedia: "Proposal deletion of NuttX"

[Sebastien Lorquet]

Hi,

The NuttX page should obviously not be deleted by it is not exactly
written in an encyclopedic style

I see text like (because Mr Greg did something and something) - you
should try to edit that so that it sounds more formal and neutral

This is not biased opinions, but is clearly not academic enough.

Also I can understand how the endless list of features looks like and
excerpt of the website and promotes too much. It should be shorter and
contain more explanations as paragraphs of text than lists. This list
sounds like bragging.

Inspiration could be obtained on other RTOS pages...
