Excerpts from Bertrand Lupart's message of 2022-03-18 14:12:30 +0100: > Just made the Pike’s Wikipedia page available again (it was redirecting to > MUD’s one for about a year)
i actually tried to undo the redirect at the time, but my attempt was reverted :-( > Already happened in the past, and the page was even proposed for deletion due > to the following reasons : > > * Lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. > * This article is written like a manual or guidebook. i would just remove most of that section. (i see someone just did that) to rewrite that section: what is interesting about pike? can we find an article/blogpost about that? otherwise can someone create one? > Especially, would you know any good external resource that would mention Pike > ? http://web.archive.org/web/20141217065637/https://www.drdobbs.com/open-source/pike-programming-language/240168647 the drdobbs article is referenced in a few of the pike wikipedia entries in other languages. i don't know why it is not on the english one. additional references confirming the use of pike in the opera-mini server: http://web.archive.org/web/20110411082009/http://www.himanshurockat.com/2010/04/opera-mini-server-must-know-where-is.html reference for the statement on pikes performance: http://web.archive.org/web/20040703085759/http://www.bagley.org/~doug/shootout/craps.shtml maybe mention support in editors like visual studio: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=undeadfish.vscode-pike-lang another general pike article http://web.archive.org/web/20121230060053/https://www.devtopics.com/pike-obscure-programming-language-of-the-month/ pike intro in german: http://www.freiesmagazin.de/mobil/freiesMagazin-2011-04-bilder.html#11_04_pike https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Peter-Fritzson/publication/237464726_DrModelica_A_Web-Based_Teaching_Environment_for_Modelica/links/5404620d0cf2c48563b08480/DrModelica-A-Web-Based-Teaching-Environment-for-Modelica.pdf this reference comes from the catalan version of the article. but i can't open it. maybe you can find it somewhere else. greetings, martin. -- general manager realss.com student mentor fossasia.org community mentor blug.sh beijinglug.club pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/
