Developers
Please list developers here. When it is more complete or includes the most important developers it can be added to the article. I have identified Pieter “sipa” Wuille, Peter Todd, Thomas Zander, Cory Fields, Luke Dashjr, Gregory Maxwell, Philip Kaufmann, Michael Ford. Someone else may have a reliable source for a complete list. I can't use this. - Shiftchange (talk) 05:02, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
- A list is maintained here. Maybe we should only mention people who already have an article about themselves. - Shiftchange (talk) 02:43, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
To include
I plan to detail the features with a few primary sources. A concise explanation of the handover form Satoshi Nakamoto is needed. Mention what happened in August 2010. How the software enables p2p networking, bootstrapping, public key infrastructure and proof of work should also be included. Licensing, promotion (if any), performance and market adoption (or reception) could also be explored. - Shiftchange (talk) 00:02, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
Bitcoin Improvement Proposals
I feel that the Bitcoin Improvement Proposals section should be removed, but I don't want to get into an edit war. See here: WP:NOTDIRECTORY and Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, textbook, or scientific journal point #4 . Case in point: this section seems to be last updated in 2016, it's nearly 2019. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reriksenus (talk • contribs) 00:51, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
- You have got a point as far as the list of the proposals is considered. On the other hand, I think that it makes sense to mention the BIP notion and keep the general description, which looks in line with the purpose of the encyclopedia. Ladislav Mecir (talk) 08:00, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
- @Ladislav Mecir:. If you have an opinion about whether there should be a standalone article on BIPs, let your opinion be known at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bitcoin Improvement Proposal. --Ysangkok (talk) 00:20, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
The exact features in Bitcoin Core is also somewhat confusing here - there are features listed which are features of the Bitcoin network (eg Segwit, CheckSequenceVerify, CheckLockTimeVerify, etc) as well as features of the Bitcoin Core software (eg HD wallets, mnonics, etc). So not only is the list out-of-date, seemingly unmaintained/able, but also misleading here. Blue Matt (talk) 21:09, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
- @Blue Matt:, all right, I have split off the article. --187.178.163.96 (talk) 19:36, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
