rename?
[edit]We should rename this article, because there is a convert command also on Linux and probably other unix-like operating systems, that is used for converting image formats.--Bk1 168 (talk) 17:07, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
- No need to create a separate article for each OS. A separate section within the article will do. Guffydrawers (talk) 06:00, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

Notability?
[edit]Is the subject notable enough for its own article in Wikipedia?
'Convert' is a generic verb that is a command/function in many Operating Systems, programming languages, Database Management Languages, application macro languages etc.
I suggest that such commands be placed into single articles about all the commands of the language/OS etc. in question. That is, if such info qualifies for WP at all. Guffydrawers (talk) 06:00, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
