Just so you both know, I have actually learnt a few things from these arguments, not that I'm suggesting they should continue. --[[User:Petelomax|Pete Lomax]] ([[User talk:Petelomax|talk]]) 13:06, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
 
:: Thanks – a new language code is an interesting and constructive thought, though it might also risk the fundamental health of Rosetta Code, by working around, and implicitly normalizing, this slightly dangerous and exogenous conception of "Encouraging" and "Discouraging" particular approaches, rather than simply displaying divergent approaches side by side, so that those familiar with one approach can learn about another.
 
 
 
:: See https://www.rosettacode.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code:Village_Pump/Discouraging_approaches
:: Can you advise me one how one adds such topics to the main listing of the Village Pump phrase ?
 
 
 
:: More generally, if all we are talking about is '''comments''', the creation of a separate category might just feel a little extreme, and might lose the principle of placing things next to each other for contrastive insight.
:: My own approach happens to differ from (Paddy)'s but I have no interest whatsoever in intervening in his code, or even in commenting on it, unless, as has occasionally been the case, it actually produces the wrong result, or triggers something at the warning level from a widely used linter.
:: I would certainly never presume to edit it directly :-)
:: (I am more than content to do the proper Rosetta thing, and just submit a constrasting variant, illustrating the possibility of another approach). [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 13:21, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
