Lua-users Wiki maintenance

[Paul K <paulclinger@...>]

Hi All,

I've attempted to make changes to several wiki pages and some changes
have been successful, but some triggered "Sorry, your change was not
accepted" message (without any suggestions on what to do or who to
contact). What is the best way to resolve this?

Overall, I find the state of some of wiki pages to be a bit outdated
(and this is one of the reasons why I attempted the update). For
example, http://lua-users.org/wiki/LuaIntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments
has about 12 links (out of 30 or so) to projects that have not been
updated for more than a year (and some for much longer) as well as
dead links. I've been myself through this and other pages about a year
ago when I was looking for a Lua IDE, so I know how much time the
process of finding something acceptable took for me. I think it's more
neutral to have links to be ordered alphabetically, but it forces
users looking for Lua applications to click through most of the links
with some of them pointing to pages that have not been updated for
years. This process doesn't leave the impression of a thriving
community of users. I'd very much prefer to have the list to be
specified in the order of likeliness to be useful to the user (even
though it may be subjective) or at least in the order of most recent
updates.

In any case, I've attempted to make changes to some of that effect and
clean up the pages a bit (while still keeping the information on the
page). Is this the right place to have this discussion?

Paul.
