Interesting background to this. It was deleted under CSD A7 and turned into a redirect. At a subsequent XFD for the redirect, the appropriateness of the speedy deletion was questioned, and this article was restored, although with a question mark over whether it should go to AFD. I'm now bringing it here as, although I understand there is a claim to significance in creating unified diff, I can find very few reliable sources to support Wayne Davison's notability. Even when searching along with unidiff/unified diff search terms, I get nothing but a couple of blogs/websites that don't seem to me to rise to the standard of reliable sources.

- Comment: There are multiple references cited in the article, yet all are offline and difficult to cross check. -The Gnome (talk) 10:16, 5 August 2019 (UTC)
