609:. Clearly a vanity page from the early days of WP. I'm refraining from !vote because this case is right on the border for the following reasons. On the plus side, he does have several co-authored papers with a few hundred citations and one of his books has been cited ~200 times (GS), but this is also a very high-citation area. On the minus side, his many books show 617:. (I will politely disagree with my colleague K.e.coffman: IT is an enormously popular area and 400 holdings is not especially impressive. For reference, "well held" books in this area top 2K holdings, e.g. Christiansen's Perl book or Kernighan and Ritchie's C programmers book.) It's very likely that this article will be kept, based upon the above !votes. 574:

He's a published author on a topic that interests lots of people - and may alas interest even more over the next few years. The stuff apparently contributed by himself appears to have been removed in 2007. Sure it needs a more diverse balance of sources. Most Knowledge (XXG) entries do. But

Unfortunately, two review articles available on the ACM Digital Library site are downloadable pdf files behind paywalls... so close! I have added a few citations that all amount to primary sources. I pass the citation baton to those with access to the reviews. Cheers!
