[edit] Graeme Devine

del. Notability. promo. Mikkalai 06:20, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep, and expand. Just notable - 1600 Google hits ("Graeme Devine" + "programmer"). Megan1967 07:47, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Seems to be just a programmer who worked on some notable projects. Another name in the credits. Google is slightly skewed in favor of programmers and such. -R. fiend 08:19, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I have also worked on notable software projects but that does not automatically guarantee a Wikipedia article about me. Wait, he also claims to be a forefather of file compression? Such a claim would benefit from some references, like refereed papers by him for example. jni 12:48, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Expansion could make this an interesting article. -- Longhair 14:38, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, he is well known in the game industry. Needs factchecking though. Rhobite 18:26, Feb 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep and cleanup - notable game programmer, former chair of the International Game Developers Association. -- Cyrius|✎ 20:43, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Present article does not establish sufficient notability. Dpbsmith (talk) 22:43, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Concur with R.Fiend, Delete. Lots of people are involved with any large project, simply because it is a large project. That doesn't make them notable. Radiant! 15:23, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep - GD is a notable game programmer in the Mac scene. Jlbrt 03:35, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC).
