Recently it's come to my attention that not everyone is quite on the same page when it comes to our scope on real people (specifically developers). Instead of arguing about this one at a time, I believe it more beneficial to come to an agreement on what our scope is when it comes to real people. Here's what we can do | Recently it's come to my attention that not everyone is quite on the same page when it comes to our scope on real people (specifically developers).

*'''Support 2, oppose 4 and 5''' Pretty much in the same boat as Aidan, but I'll go ahead and post my opinions here. They simply aren't relevant enough. Most if not all the articles would be "X created Y who is playable in Z." A lot of people on the Miyamoto talk page seem to be biased towards him because he's created so many great gaming icons. While that is true, he has almost zero relation to Smash. This is the case with all other character creators. In addition to this, you also have to take into consideration the other co-creators of the character/universe. Wouldn't they deserve the same treatment should option 4 come into fruition? In the end, if option 4 passes, we'd be seeing a lot of small low-effort articles on lots of mostly irrelevant figures. A mention on the significant dev page and a crosswiki link would be the best option here.
