"This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale." What's up with that ? Although I never used it and probably never will. It still is a popular wm. I strongly disagree with "low-importance" ! Garo (talk) 10:56, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Image:Fvwmlogo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 11:06, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
How does fvwm2 fit into the timeline?--Hhielscher 15:00, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The article contains this sentence:
Ion and Larswm, VTWM, in that Sawfish or Kwin is more with Ctwm.
I can't figure out what this sentence is trying to say. Can someone clean this up, or should we just delete it? Riordanmr (talk) 20:53, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Also there is typo in the "Derivatives" picture, it reads "Enlightement" i think it should read "Enlightenment" as in "http://www.enlightenment.org/"
OpenBSD seems to use FVWM 2.0.46. Looking at a Git mirror of the Fvwm code, the license was changed to GPL after that. (The version does not seem be explicitly clear...)
A patch adding the text of the GPL was added on 12 Nov 1998. The Changelog at that time, show that it was shortly after version 2.0.46. (It also seems to be shortly after Dominik Vogt took over maintenance, seemingly from Steve Robbins). Looking at this it seems that the GPL transition was announced 1999-04-08....

I reverted this editbyEupsychos. While Debian linux used GNU/Linux in their release materials through Debian 5, by the time Debian 7 came out, they were no longer doing this. This matches the preferred style from MOS:Linux. —jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 04:45, 22 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wikipedians !
My intention was to precise that the FVWM X session is running in Debian with Linux kernel by using the full name "Debian GNU/Linux" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eupsychos (talk • contribs) 22:11, 30 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
