The landing page defines the goals of Rosetta Code in terms of:
Line 8:
My view is that diverging approaches are the life-blood of Rosetta Code, and that the creative response to difference is simply to submit alternative drafts.
Line 24:
It seems to me that:
:* the only interesting comment on standards compliance is one offered by a widely used linter,
:* and the only creative and Rosetta-like comment on an approach with which we disagree is simply the submission of an alternative draft.
In terms of Rosetta's goals, some drafts will emphasise universal similarities, and others will emphasise particular differences.
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
All drafts provide interesting insight into differing approaches, and the optimisation of different types of value.
I don't think we should be vandalising or deleting each others (working and well-linted) code in the angry pursuit of personal visions of what is "to be encouraged" or what is "not be encouraged".
There are other forums for the pursuit of such arguments.
