The idea that Coca-Cola created the current version of Santa Claus is an urban myth. Popularised? Maybe. Created? No. http://www.snopes.com/holidays/christmas/

I think the argument is that Coca-Cola solidified Santa's look. Proto-Claus were seen in blue and green coats, for example.

The idea that one website becomes the supposed ultimate source of truth is an incredibly bad idea.
