"In Philip K Dick's story Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Rick is not a replicant - he passes the Voigt-Kampff test and has a wife. The film version made some changes."

Above quote from the linked article. So....this means that any suggestion of Deckard being a replicant comes from Ridley Scott, not the author of the novel.

That said, Scott did have some face time with the author before he died.

...in interviews I've read, Ridley Scott said Deckerd was a replicant and Harrison Ford disagreed saying he was human.

That keeps the controversy alive.

But I'm assuming Scott knows and Ford is talking about his acting.
