Not a "Unix command"

mkd is not part of Unix and isn't in POSIX. mkd is available for unix-like systems, but the intro sentence saying it's a "unix command" sounds like it means something more specific, which isn't true.

For the page name, it should probably be changed but it's not as urgent. People understand that page names focus on being short rather than being accurate or expressive. Gronky (talk) 13:38, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

None of those sources are relevant for notability (they are written by people who work on mkd, no independent, knowledgeable sources are given). By the way, in reviewing your work, it seems that no one remembered to caution you on your apparent conflict of interest TEDickey (talk) 01:45, 21 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
