I'll add two bits here ("two bits" being an Americanism for what once was, but no longer is a particularly valuable coin) that: - the wiki was clearly worse quality when edits were not slightly restricted, because pages kept getting splattered with auto-added debris full of links some might call unsavory and nobody would argue were "off topic" - "dead links" has been a bit of a sensitive topic, as many times people reporting them have submitted alternatives which point to a site which accrue some financial benefit to the reporter rather than really providing a true open alternative. - ranting at and offending the maintainers usually has an effect... just consider your own reaction if the roles were reversed. As MAL says... make a couple of more specific proposals, and we'll see. _______________________________________________ pydotorg-www mailing list pydotorg-www@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pydotorg-www
