Deletion of Randal L. Schwartz

Comment: I'm going to stay out of this, as it seems to be quickly turning into a war, but I'd like to point out to those who wish to defend the reputation of Mr. Schwartz that the references you add *must* follow the guidelines of . I don't believe that the consensus of this discussion will be delete (it needs some really good references,) but if it is, I highly doubt it will be because, as some on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2910691 Hacker News have suggested, that it's because he's 'too old' or from a generation the editors on Wikipedia cannot relate to. I would also like to remind Mr. Schwartz that suggesting your followers to come here and defend this article may seem like a good idea, but it makes you seem (no offense intended) somewhat biased and maybe a bit emotional about it, although I can certainly understand that as it's an article about you. Just remember that it's not *your* article.  Also, if people here wish to complain that this is the reason why Wikipedia is 'bad' or 'jumped the shark', remember that if it weren't for the ability to have your voice heard, you wouldn't be able to argue at all
