List of computing topics

This page aims to list articles on Wikipedia that are related to computing. This is so that those interested in the subject can monitor changes to the pages by clicking on Related changes (/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Recentchangeslinked&target=List_of_computing_topics) in the sidebar and on the bottom of the page..

The list is not necessarily complete or up to date - if you see an article that should be here but isn't (or one that shouldn't be here but is), please do update the page accordingly.

At the end is a list of important computer people. See also List of programmers.
