Half of the article is listing out examples of Just another Perl hacker, which we don't need. There isn't much info found online about this either, leading me to believe there aren't sufficient sources to establish notability. Sungodtemple (talk) 20:53, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Perl#Perl_pastimes, where it is mentioned. This a bit of perl culture that has been documented in reliable sources, e.g., [1], but not in great depth. I haven't found the in-depth sources needed to satisfy GNG and support a standalone article. As an alternative to deletion, per our policy WP:ATD, I suggest redirecting to the short Pastimes section in the Perl article, or alternatively, to Randal L. Schwartz, who popularized the practice. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 11:23, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
