Format for new articles

Vynce - when creating new articles, please consider using Function_Reference/edit_post or even Function_Reference/get_site_url as the template for creating new articles. Thank you for contributing to Codex. --MichaelH (talk) 23:32, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

MichaelH: Yeah, well. Some people are paid to write this software and its documentation; others pay to use it and read that documentation. Guess which group I think should be creating the new pages, and which group should find them already there and up to date? If it were easy to contribute better documentation to the site, and I weren't under a deadline, I'd try harder. But as it is, I think it's appalling that the pages don't already exist at all. There're all these structured comment blocks cluttering up the source code; somebody should write a bot that actually populates the documentation on this site. I'm paid to do a different thing.
