All you need to do is create an account and get us to empower it (the work of a moment), and you can fix all the errors you find.

"Immutable" really just means "can't be edited by you in your current state". For instance, if you're logged out, *every* page is immutable (unlike Wikipedia, we don't allow anonymous edits). There are some pages that are legitimately protected (administrative ones), but I don't think this one should be. It has at the top "#acl All:read" - M-A, does this mean it's immutable to non-admins? (I can edit it.) And secondly, does it _need_ to be protected like that, now that we have editor restrictions elsewhere? Neil, sorry about the hassles here!

No; the nature of a wiki is that changes go public straight away.

The page you're looking at is aimed at beginners, so it should minimize the number of extra programs to be downloaded.

I would declare an official stance that you get one link, but with the caveat that we're all only human - violations might not always be noticed immediately. (That's just to silence the "but Daad, you didn't spank Timmy when HE did that" complaint.) Once it's known that someone's put multiple sites in, we'll remove all but one, and possibly all.

It's not sufficient, true, but we try to be fairly responsive here at granting editor access to legit people. What happens when you try to sign up?

You could probably do this: def irange(*args): return iter(range(*args)) The range object retains its endpoints, rather than creating all the integers up-front, so it has the efficiency needed for large ranges. If there's something that irange does and range doesn't, then feel free to describe that use-case on the wiki (once you manage to get an account).

Hi Ana! At the moment, your book is still in development, right? You mention an estimated publication date only. Once the book becomes available, it would be a very useful addition to the web site, but for now, it would probably only tease, rather than serving.

Oh! I think I understand. So what you're saying is that some of the content is available *right now*, and more is becoming available progressively? If you could add a few words to the copy to explain that, it would be helpful - I'm not the only person who is entirely unfamiliar with MEAP.

Anyone who's never made an edit and hasn't logged in within the past, say, 12 months is almost certainly inactive. I'd purge them in the interests of improving wiki performance. Any user in EditorsGroup has to either be kept (ie considered active), or removed from EditorsGroup. Otherwise, someone could create an account and instantly have editing access.

Yeah, sometimes one or other of us gets busy, or loses track of something. The best way to respond to us is to write to the whole list, and then any of us can pick up the job.

Yes, that's correct. We're the anti-spam and anti-bot brigade - a sort of "super-captcha" that has had a fairly good success rate to date :) I've made you an editor. Have at it!
