message: Added the names to the list, but didn't update the totals. I went by alphabetical order from the internal announcement, but so far I've only seen one external announcement. The format seemed to call for flagging the names as links, even though none of this year's fellows have Wikipedia pages yet. The link on Tim Vincent is NOT the correct person. 
I'm not sure if I should create the Wikipedia page for the fellow I know? I could do it, but it seems to be a conflict of interest since I work in the IBM food chain?

message: I know that there were new fellows added this year.  I am an IBMer, and I know I got the list emailed to me who the new ones were.  I will add them when I find the email, and get the chance.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.97.110.54 (talk) 21:33, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: But why is the insert into the article so intrusive?  Could it not just be a small box with a link to relevant information?  On a pad/tablet, smart phone, or netbook, one has to scroll through pages of pompous gobbledegook to get to the content of the article!  mfc (talk) 16:30, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: I cannot find any indication that Paul Burton is an IBM Fellow. His WP biography doesn't even mention IBM. I've removed him from the list. --EnOreg (talk) 20:14, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  False positives 

message: I cannot find any indication that Riseman was a Fellow and so have marked him as dubious.  Tom94022 (talk) 21:44, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I worked with Jacob Riseman, although I only met him now and then. My recollection is that he was an IBM Fellow. Eocatney, could you please state the title of the article you are citing, the author, and the page number that "Jacob Riseman became an IBM Fellow in 1969" appears on? I will edit the article accordingly once the information needed is provided. Jc3s5h (talk) 17:06, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

text: FWIW, I too found a link to the article referenced above but was unable to access it.  I did not find any other reference to Riseman as a Fellow and in the end decided the one inaccessible article was not a reliable source so I tagged the addition of Riseman as dubious.  Tom94022 (talk) 17:15, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

text: IBM has updated its "Fellows" directory. It now lists all Fellows. Riseman was named a Fellow in 1969. See Directory, here cnay, 17 Sept 2013  —Preceding undated comment added 18:34, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

message: The complete list of Fellows is now on the IBM Website (Järvinnen is according to this list not an IBM Fellow).--Claude J (talk) 07:27, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps now is the time to remove the list of individual fellows in deference to IBMs list?  Tom94022 (talk) 10:54, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: But IBM's list does not contain wikilinks to the Wikipedia article about the fellow. Jc3s5h (talk) 14:33, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: How notable is each fellow? The most recent ones are not even wikified.Zigzig20s (talk) 12:29, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: And many of the early ones do not have Wiki articles.  So why not eliminate the list here, replacing it with a link to the IBM site and using links from those articles about IBM fellows to the this summary article? Tom94022 (talk) 17:13, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
