Transmogrifier (computer science)[edit]

Procedural nomination due to {{hoax}} tag placed on article. A quick Google search doesn't turn up anything that matches this description. I can't figure out whether this should be redirected to something more appropriate or deleted as a hoax so I'm opening up for discussion.

I am currently neutral. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 15:46, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

delete I have found several articles that refer to this transmogrifier pattern, which is really another name for the facade pattern or whatever, and most use this wikipedia article as a source. If it is a hoax, and it may well have been, it has almost created its own reality. I guess I would lean toward weak delete here just based on the paucity of wp:n - these blogs/etc aren't really wp:rs. ErikHaugen (talk) 18:06, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — I added the second meaning of transmogrifier as TMG, the compiler generator language, which was mentioned by Dennis Ritchie in his CACM article on the development of the C language. That being said, I don't think there's anything here that qualifies as a complete WP article. — Loadmaster (talk) 18:21, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
