Minor nitpick on the article: Common Lisp is not a family, it's a standard with many implementations[1][2].
Common Lisp is a member of the Lisp familiy of languages, just like Clojure is.

- lispm 15y agoThere are implementations which implement the standard, slight variations of it (lower case identifiers, ...) or large extended versions of it (+ MOP + CLOS everywhere + ...). There are also derived languages like Stella, L, SubL and others which implement some kind of subset. Then there is ISLisp, which is very similar, but slightly simplified.
- pupeno 15y agoThanks. I changed the wording to reflect this. Is it better now?
- aerique 15y agoYup, thanks!
