What about Python? Perl influence on Python, I'm having trouble to see this. Apart from the infobox Python is mentioned only two times in the entire article. Surprising enough, but certainly not due to influence, at least not in that direction. Perl came out in 87, Python 91, did Guido even know about it by the time? And influenced what? Python is about as different as it gets, and if it's about regexes then Perl "influenced" just about anything, only problem is it didn't exactly invent those either. It is less easy to argue that Python rather influenced Perl 5: Larry Wall pretty much took his inspiration for the OO extension from there. Not a secret and quite easy to cite. If anything, Python is listed in precisely the wrong row. -92.76.164.116 (talk) 04:05, 3 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It looks like one user added 50 citation needed templates in 3 minutes on December 16th, 2020, taking the count from 4 to 54. That is a serious bit of tag bombing and 50 in 3 minutes does not suggest a lot of thought was put into these tags. Yet some of these tags are warranted, so a review is reasonable. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk}11:10, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
