Out of date Professional Reviews

I'd like to propose deleting the summary of obsolete review in ExtremeTech, October 2013, by David Cardinal. Many of the features he listed as missing were added in later versions. An eleven year old detailed review is no longer relevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.37.3.216 (talk) 02:53, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Glimpse links here, but no appropriate information is present

There is a fork of GIMP names Glimpse. The (disambiguation) page Glimpse links here, but there is no mention of that name. Okterakt (talk) 23:35, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I added it to the forks list Laura240406 (talk) 23:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
