Okay. I hadn't looked at many others - it looks like that's kind of a
"template" since many of the ones linked off this page:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/DatabaseInterfaces

do in fact have those sections even if they're sometimes empty (see
https://wiki.python.org/moin/Informix)


In my (partial) defense, the one I did look at doesn't have those
sections :)

https://wiki.python.org/moin/Sybase



That main page is pretty out of date, there's no mention even of the
whole class we call NoSQL databases... well, it's a wiki, depends on
people willing to keep up to date. Hint, hint :)

BTW: Please add a link to the page from our database interface
page at https://wiki.python.org/moin/DatabaseInterfaces and use the
https://wiki.python.org/moin/DatabaseTemplate we have for these.

We have those pros/cons for all databases listed in the wiki.
It's useful to have as a guideline for newbies when selecting
a database backend.

Makes sense to me. I'll hold off on the pros/cons for now, and stick to how
to use CockroachDB with Python. Thanks!

The wiki is for "user contributions" so it's fine to contribute how
Python can be used to work with CockroachDB - we'll set you up as an
editor when you're ready.

I don't know that I personally think the first section of the mysql page
where it has pros/cons of mysql itself is particularly
relevant/appropriate to the Python wiki, and maybe we should remove that
bit.   That's just one opinion, we'll see if others express conflicting
ones. Pros/cons of different connectors in working with the db is a
different story.  Just as possible guidance what might/might not be in
scope for your notes...

[pydotorg-www] Adding CockroachDB info to Python Wiki

[Charlotte Dillon via pydotorg-www]

Hi, Maintainers!

I'm Charlotte, [CharlotteDillon] to be specific, and I'm on the team at
Cockroach Labs.

I'm reaching out about writing a page on the Python Wiki about building on
CockroachDB (akin to this MySQL page ).
If our docs team were to draw something up, are you the folks to be in
touch with? We don't want to be spammy on your site, just want to get our
name and information out there.

Let me know, and thanks for the work you do!
