(will update as I go)

Lead[edit]

Windows 8.1 (codenamed Blue) is an upgrade for Windows 8, a version of Windows NT, a computer operating system released by Microsoft - "a version of Windows NT" is probably unnecessary for the lead, and this double appositive (although not grammatically incorrect) breaks up the sentence. My picky suggestion would be remove or reword it (again, just a picky suggestion).

The article sometimes omits "Windows" when referring to Windows 8 and 8.1, and sometimes includes it. There seems to be no pattern ruling when "Windows" should be omitted. Change so it includes Windows uniformly through the whole lead, include "Windows" on the first mention per paragraph and omit it until the end of the paragraph, or exclude Windows uniformly (except for the first paragraph).
- Done "Windows" is now always included. SST flyer 07:55, 13 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
