For the purposes of academic publications (in areas well outside of SIGPLAN
and such), are there any preferred citations for Clojure and EDN? Or could
a recommendation for a citation for both (especially EDN) be proposed if
there isn't one currently?

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but the EDN spec is
https://github.com/edn-format/edn and was written by Rich Hickey. Seems
like that is what you should cite.
I don't know what it would mean to "cite" Clojure - it is software, written
by many people over a period of years. Rich Hi
Cite the URL. It's the correct identifier, it's got the relevant data on
it, and it's archived in archive.org.
If the journal editor or other academic tells you that you need a
"proper" academic reference, just ignore them, because they are wrong.

I have never had to cite Clojure, but I have cited other software packages
that didn't have publications. In general, if there is an actual academic
publication, it's best to cite that. Frequently there isn't of course, and
in those cases I've cited the web address.

Actually, I am not sure I would agree. For example, there are quite a
few publications on Scala but most of the academic publications are
about something; so, the semantics of it's type system, or the blending
of function and OO or so on. So, which should you cite? Well, you could
pick the languag

I'm not disagreeing with you. When you're talking about a language, and
none of the papers specifically points to the language as a whole - that's
fine. But in the case of specific software packages/programs, I think it is
often better to cite a paper if it exists. For example, if I write a paper

Here's a good citation for Clojure:

Well, there's no shortage of broken links out there to suggest that people
