Description
Some of our current (and likely future) wiki articles do not fit the How to … scheme. In particular, we have:
- Why Should I Format My Code, and How Do I Do It?
- Why Is
using namespace stdConsidered Bad Practice? - What Is
std::spanand Why Should I Use It? - What Is
std::arrayAnd Why Should I Use It? - Why Should I not
#include <bits/stdc++.h>? - What Is a VLA, and Why Is It "Bad"?
It is rather awkward to pull these up via the /howto command. We already have the general /wiki command. I would suggest to add /why and /what commands, and make it so that the /howto//why//what commands only list articles that fall into the How to …/Why …/What … scheme. This could be done by simply looking at the title, or by adding an HTML comment tag, or by reorganizing the wiki articles into howto/why/what subdirectories.
In addition to reduced awkwardness, this would also have the advantage of shortening the lists of suggestions, making the wiki a bit easier to navigate by being able to filter based on category, and maybe even making the wiki commands a bit less laggy…
