: PS There are some existing tasks, like list flattening (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Flatten_a_list) which already demonstrate type-conditional divergence of evaluation or flow. Perhaps "type detection", however, would either be too parochial (or simply misleading) as a description of what is happening in, for example, pattern matching.

'''==Spam attempt ?'''==
:I notice that www.BugMeNot.com provides a login-control evasion service, by sharing ersatz login credentials.

:Perhaps the user(s) of these shared BugMeNot credentials would like to allay our suspicions ? [[User:Hout|Hout]] ([[User talk:Hout|talk]]) 13:39, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
 
::Hi. BugMeNot user here. I've corrected this thread to have a proper title, as i believe it's supposed to have.
 
::First, i can say that my choice of a shared account like this, is just because i'm a bit of a casual user/contributor of the site. I wasn't allowed to post anonymously and thus went for the 2nd easiest solution. If i end up caring about my account and wanting to go in to deeper usage/discussions and gain more trust, i'll be sure to create a proper account. But i assure you i'm a good person and have good intentions. Although i can't guarantee this account won't be used by others.
 
:: The language was just what i happened to be working on at the time and not meant as a challenging exercise. It was fairly easy for me to contribute with it, since i was already working on it. I must admit, it's also a selfish reason, cause i believe i might benefit from having this article here for future reference and hopefully others do too. The fact that others saw it as an invitation to expand it with more languages, is really a testament to the community on this wiki and it's really nice to see. I can understand your worry about spam, but people are clearly maintaining this wiki very nicely, so it should hopefully be detected fairly quickly and efficiently if it actually happens. --[[User:Bugmenot2|Bugmenot2]] ([[User talk:Bugmenot2|talk]]) 10:10, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

:I do not agree (I am a "wiki inclusionist"). Try to make stuff useful of it (it should be the primary priority), or use pure-wiki-deletion. Whether or not the user that wrote it is using BugMeNot is irrelevant; the contents of the page are what matter, and anyone can fix it, therefore anyone <i>should</i> fix it! --[[User:Zzo38|Zzo38]] ([[User talk:Zzo38|talk]]) 19:37, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
