I always welcome people who wish to help make our wiki better and up-to-date. The java page is referenced quite often not only in the forums but in all other channels.

You might want to coordinate with MikaelFridh whose name appears as the maintainer of that section of the java article.

I do see such an indication (of a name appearing as a 'maintainer') of a sub-part. But MikaelFridh has not touched it in months, and seemingly lacks an enabled 'mailto' as no envelope appears next to his EditName [ ;) ]. He was added to the top for edit rights, did a couple changes, and then seemingly abandoned the 'Maintainer' role. I will remove the sub-section 'Maintainer' indication on that section next time I am in that page, absent him picking up the torch again.


The revision history for a given page is under the 'info'
button on every wiki page, and perhaps gives a better picture
perhaps of who are tending a given page.


REQUEST: As to the matter of adding edit rights after a request here, I would ask that the person asking, affirm that they are 'reachible' through the wiki mecahnism, and have set up their account with the 'userprefs':
    "Publish my email (not my wiki homepage) in author info"
clicked on, such that this envelope would appear in the 'Info' log.

I don't see that we presently have a wiki page describing the process of requesting edit rights for persons newly coming and seeking such [my 'wiki search foo' may be weak].
         http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute/EditingCentOSWiki
is close, but not exactly right

I would add the language I suggested there, or at:
        http://wiki.centos.org/EditGroup

Thoughts?
