Does not warrant a separate article. There is no real difference between the concept of computer multitasking and this specific implementation. Some of the content could be merged back into iOS. Don Cuan (talk) 07:25, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The IOS article is ~51 kB but IOS#Multitasking contains much of the same information. Two articles specifically about IOS multitasking in PC World, two in Macworld, one in the Register and one on gizmodo.com would seem to satisfy WP:GNG. If this is to be kept, the section in IOS could be removed, could it not? If it's merged, IOS needn't grow much. —rybec 03:56, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Multitasking in iOS was a big deal in specialized news media, first for its lack thereof and later for its limited approach. Although that is not reflected in the article's text, it's available at the provided references. The article should be expanded to reflect that view, but as it is now it complies with WP:GNG.

Procedural keep AfD is not for merge discussion. I have put up some merge banners. Please discuss this on the talk page. ~KvnG 05:48, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to iOS. I'm confused why there's a separate article to begin with. GSK ● ✉ ✓ 02:31, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
