From duplode_1 at yahoo.com.br Sun Apr 13 06:17:04 2014 From: duplode_1 at yahoo.com.br (Daniel Mlot) Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 03:17:04 -0300 Subject: [Haskell wikibook] WikiBook Haskell In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <534A2BE0.6070700@yahoo.com.br> Hello Laura, First of all, this is an horribly late reply, and I'm sorry for that. Eric's advice about comments, and about "just going in and making changes", is perfectly sound of course. As for current activity in the Wikibook, I try to, at least a couple times per year, spend some time there reviewing pending changes, performing general maintenance and writing some new content. I am not aware of other active (or sporadically active, like myself) regulars right now, though there is a steady trickle of helpful changes by visitors. I replied to some of your comments in the talk pages, in case you still have an use for them after so long. You can find the replies more quickly than through the regular interface by going to https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User:Duplode/Haskell/Public_watchlist and using the "Related changes" link in the sidebar, under Tools (that page, by the way, is a crude measure to make changes to book talk pages a little easier to monitor, given the inflexibility of MediaWiki in that respect).
