Warning: Please don't focus on irrelevant aspects on the projects page

Hi, wiki admin here, were you Updater3 who I have given a warning about this before? Focusing on just floppies is weird because they're irrelevant, yes, I've seen your bugs talking about motherboard support but that's also not too important. There's a lot more important aspects of operating systems to focus on, like whether they're installable, whether an installation can be upgraded to a newer version, whether there's networking, whether the OS is self-hosting, etc. Likewise the processor architecture and possibly the memory requirements could matter. If the boot methods were important, it would be useful to mark the available ones like netboot, cdrom, floppy, disk image, etc. Although that information should be limited to the really relevant parts and be information dense, so it doesn't distract from the rest of the entry. I also reverted your other changes to the page, which were fine editorial changes. Feel free to make those again. If you'd like to make major changes to the page, please discuss it on the talk page or the forums and get some consensus. --Sortie 08:21, 15 December 2018 (CST)
