Create educational docs/blog for claims like “R can’t be used in production”!

How can we ensure that uptake of R is not limited by misconceptions like “R isn’t a real programming language” or “R can’t be used in production”?

But, why don't we, as a community of R users, work on a doc or blog post where the data scientists talk about their experience of using R for a lot of things than just statistics that can help remove this kind of a stigma that is being told to young and aspiring data scientists like me. In all honesty, when I started learning data science, the instructors were pretty harsh in their view about R without even knowing it's full capabilities.

Why can't we collaborate with an open-source business like RStudio and work with to help promote R for higher level programming?
