I think that is a terrible idea. Yes there is some junk in there, but there are also a lot of useful stuff and it is something most users love. With a bit more attention from people we can improve the quality and I think that could start with a better UI and a bit of cheer leading from me and other PHP devs to motivate more people to help out. I see your point, but I'm still concerned about a lot of the bad solutions. Perhaps the "Official Userland Library" would solve this - we could move a lot of the code snippets there, and leave the comments behind.

Maybe I should push the internals posts to useful contribution ratio harder, or we could tie wiki voting to a minimum contribution level. Editing notes, handling bug reports, doc commits, code commits, etc. Not that I really want to build an accounting system for that, but just try to get it into peoples' minds that they need to balance their ranting on internals with some positive contributions. I do try to, but this isn't really the subject of this ml thread, so if you wish to discuss that, please make a new thread.
