Thank god we have TDPL, otherwise the D page would quickly lose this battle. D is much much more notable than Nemerle, Alice ML, Pure, Nosica, Kiev, Einstein, Alma-0, Joy, Zonnon, Y, Cat, Fancy, Ambi, Ptolemy, Mythryl, COMIT, Ioke, EASY, Aikido, A+, Adenine, Afnix, Bsisith, ChinesePython, AngelScript, Algae, Agena, Taxi, Inger, Iota, Jot, Agora, Falcon, Averest, Lava, Factor, Glagol. These all have been deleted by the same editor. This guy is actually doing us a great favor by deleting references to competition. This improves D's position a lot in Wikipedia.
