DOS

There have been multiple operating systems called DOS or that have "DOS" in their name. Not all of them are compatible with MS-DOS. Why not change the name to "MS-DOS games"? Mstuomel 23:17, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The separate list article is already called List of MS-DOS games. Mstuomel 20:59, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the renaming to MS-DOS. A category is far more useful than a list. I am not sure the process of renaming a category..could an admin advise..thanks. MrMarmite 22:10, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It should be kept the way it is, considering these games also ran on PC-DOS and DR-DOS which were still around. Libertyernie2 15:07, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
