The thing is, Wikipedia is not the platform for promoting specific 'brands'. The purpose is more geared towards promoting ideas, concepts, and facts. Providing alternate examples of design patterns in D, in articles about patterns, is not the best use of Wikipedia. The places to but D code examples, are in articles about D, or where there are no existing examples for a concept or technique. I'm pretty sure that if you enter D examples where similar examples in other languages already exist, they will be promptly removed. Also, C is still the lingua-franca of the programming community, so examples in *any* other language are usually subject to 'special' editoral scrutiny. -- Derek Parnell Melbourne, Australia skype: derek.j.parnell
