This is great, thanks for doing that!

It would be great to add this history of Clojure paper. There is also a C++ paper he wrote (http://www.tutok.sk/fastgl/callback.html).

Other things Rich has made:

  - ClojureScript (https://clojurescript.org/)
  - Datomic database (https://www.datomic.com/)
  - edn data format (https://github.com/edn-format/edn) - extensible data notation (subset of Clojure's syntax)
  - Transit (https://github.com/cognitect/transit-format) - format for conveying values between languages
  - Fressian (https://github.com/Datomic/fressian) - extensible binary data notation, used by Datomic
  - REBL (http://rebl.cognitect.com/download.html) - graphical tool for browsing Clojure data
  - Codeq (https://github.com/Datomic/codeq) - Clojure+Datomic application to do code-aware queries on git repos

Thanks! I've added most of that (there are no Wikipedia articles for Transit/Fressian/REBL/Codeq, so not sure how to mention those without external links which look weird inline).

Still, an editor who doesn't like the current state could simply revert it, as there are no sources for any of this. Note that the criterion is “verifiability, not truth” — Wikipedia is supposed to be a summary of what has been said about a topic/person in books, newspapers, etc., so even though all of these are obviously true, it would be best to find a source that mentions these things and cite that!

[Similarly, in general, if you are the subject of a Wikipedia article and you find that it has some incorrect information about you, then rather than editing the article directly it is best to get something published or write something yourself—even a blog post—and cite that. :-)]
