Wrong Linux information

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 01:30, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
- I see that you have opted not to add my proposed edits, stating that I needed to add reliable sources. Could you please clarify which part of my two sources (particularly the first one, which is a support article from Microsoft themselves) does not meet reliability criteria? If the date stated is the issue, please simply leave that part out and add the rest, as I cannot locate any non-forum indication that June 2023 was the date the Skype application was discontinued on Xbox, as it was done very quietly and without any announcements. 58.107.85.151 (talk) 08:54, 28 September 2024 (UTC)
