I've added a Dave Small stub but I think the current David Small page should be moved to David Small (author for children) or a more appropriate category, (Dave Small the computer scientist is also an author). We should then update the 'David Small' page and make it a differentiator page.

I guess we could also rename the current Dave Small article to David Small (computer scientist and author) then have Dave Small redirect to David Small.


Dave wrote the following as html comments, I'm making it visible.

There is an accidental crossing between David Small the programmer (who did the Spectre GCR) and David Small as listed ("David Small (born February 12, 1945 in Detroit, Michigan) is an American author and illustrator.").

I'm David Small the programmer. I wrote Spectre GCR and did a lot of articles and books. I was born in 1958. And while I *wish* I had won the Caldecott medal twice, I just haven't. I have a different history.

I sure see how this happened by accident.

It just needs fixing, is all.

I'll do the best I can, but I am not exactly a Wiki Wizard. Please excuse my fumbling efforts to repair things!
