*'''Merge''' to [[Joel Spolsky]]. The story is mentioned in a [http://www.salon.com/2004/12/09/spolsky/ Salon article], but not in enough depth to count as an RS for the purposes of notability. The meme is clearly in use among software folks on wikis and blogs, but I was unable to find other independent reliable sources. Nonetheless, the idea is verifiable and [[WP:PRESERVE]] suggests that merging such material is preferable to deleting it. This is already mentioned in the [[Joel Spolsky]] article, so it is a natural target. It is a plausible search term, so a redirect is warranted, too. --[[User:Mark viking|Mark viking]] ([[User talk:Mark viking|talk]]) 21:20, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
