As noted before, the Wikipedia article for Haskell is a disorganised mess.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haskell_%28programming_language%29

earlier this year, dons suggested reorganising it and posted a template on the Haskell wiki:

http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/WikipediaArticleDesign

I've made a start on a new version of the page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Simonmar/Haskell_%28programming_language%2...

I've kept most of the existing information, but reorganised it more or less according to Don's template, and I filled out the overview section.  Also I fixed numerous things, but the page still has a long way to go

Does anyone mind if I spam the existing Haskell article with this new one, or do people think we should continue editing the sandbox version until it's in better shape?

Could someone please do something about the horrible syntax highlighting for strings in the Wikipedia article? Black on dark green, really?

Syntax highlighting on En for Haskell snippets is done, I believe, through GeSHi: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi So complain to them? -- gwern
