This article fails to meet the general notability guideline. The one source I could find was the author's original publication on the language in '81, which according to the http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=954278 has 10 citations. For a paper from 30 years ago, 10 citations is an awfully low number, so I don't think one could use an academic argument for this source establishing notability. Regardless, one source doesn't count as multiple instances of independent coverage. Christopher Monsanto (talk) 16:56, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
