::I agree with your observation on GNU Community. Not sure the intention of including it under Organizations. I think it's a user group like any other user group (As  the GNU APL website state: "This web page contains links to contributions from users of GNU APL, aka. "the GNU APL community"). I suggest removing "GNU APL Community" from Organizations and replacing with the GNU APL developer Jürgen Sauermann in the list of language developers. This is based on what's in the current GNU APL website. This also seems to be in line with the purpose of the page.

== Not all developers ==
I'm going to declare that this page should ''not'' list all entities that have developed an array language. [[Timeline of APL dialects]] serves that purpose better. Instead, a developer should be listed if (see also [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists|Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists]]):
* The developer is Wikipedia-notable or [[APL Wiki:Content guidelines#Notability|APL-notable]], or
* The developer has created two or more dialects.
Harris and Leptonics don't meet these standards, but I'm leaving them in until they can be placed somewhere else on the wiki so we don't lose track of them. I believe MCM is APL-notable but I could be wrong. --[[User:Marshall|Marshall]] ([[User talk:Marshall|talk]]) 18:10, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
