- Comment Just a note from someone familiar with the ZX Spectrum's history - Jonathan Smith is indeed one of the better known programmers on this platform, with his work generally known for its high quality. Sales from programs he wrote were certainly in the hundreds of thousands. If Jeff Minter, Matthew Smith, Mike Follin and numerous others have articles, Jonathan Smith certainly deserves one. -- AA, from world of spectrum forums
- Strong keep: Jonathan Smith is one of the better known programmers for the Spectrum: Green Beret, Cobra and Batman: The Caped Crusader (all written by Smith) are generally considered to be better games for the Spectrum, both technically and playability-wise. I'll tweak the article to show this if I can find a way of doing it without it being too much POV. --Pak21 09:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- Comment: I've now rewritten the article somewhat to show Smith's notability. I'll fix the formatting up as well if we decide to keep the article. Cheers --Pak21 11:12, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
