[edit] Autrijus Tang

Non-notable hacker, vanity? RickK 02:08, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete likely vanity, although I respect anyone who implements a procedural language with functional language. Gazpacho 02:11, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable, vanity. Megan1967 07:26, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Abstain, because I'm biased (I work on Perl 6 and Pugs). Autrijus lives in Taiwan; whois says that the page's creator has an American IP. Vanity seems unlikely. —Brent Dax 07:39, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, I don't think it's vanity. He wrote Pugs. I think Wikipedia should list notable programmers. See Chuck Moore or Yukihiro Matsumoto. Google has 17,800 results for "Autrijus Tang". Mushroom 14:30, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, does sound notable, cleanup for NPOV as necessary. Kappa 20:19, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, much more encyclopedic than porn images, and we seem to keep those. JYolkowski 21:06, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep. Vaguely notable programmer. JuntungWu 14:02, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Doesn't seem notable. --NormanEinstein 14:47, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep, probably because I use Perl so much. I rewrote the extant text to be more 3rd-person NPOV. -- Dcfleck 15:23, 2005 Apr 16 (UTC)
• Abstain, because that's me. It is by no means vanity -- I was not aware of this page until I stumbled by it myself. I'm neutral on whether to keep this or not; if the vote is for keep, I'd be happy to contribute relevant, non-vanity materials to this page. Autrijus 07:19, 2005 Apr 17 (UTC)
• Keep. Moderately well-known programmer. Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 08:51, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Moderately well-known programmer, doing absolutely amazing things with small amounts of code in Pugs (and his other code is pretty cool too). Knobunc 14:15, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Autrijus is well-known in the perl community for being phenomenally productive and his recent work on Pugs has only served to increase the mythos :-). --PerlPilot 20:54 (UTC), Apr 18, 2005
• Keep. chocolateboy 21:41, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
