Stopped editing Julia, it just seems to much trouble (EDIT: now just with small changes).I guess editing programming language articles is just difficult to do right. Might apply to technical articles in general, where the best sources are primary ones. I ended up deleting in 2015 edit most of the stuff I had added to the Julia article, halving the article... and I see in 2020 the article has grown to be a bit larger than it was then (probably in large part because of me).
