Thanks Patrick. I could not have put it in a better way.
Besides, we distinguish between administrators (system) and editors
(content).

It's not exactly brain surgery either. Anyone who has the time and doesn't
at least bother to try on their own first or donate some money to fund
someone else to do the work for them, doesn't get the right to complain
about dead links or anything else.
Community projects rely on the entire community to provide the necessary
resources to maintain the content. The administrators can offer assistance
but should not be expected to keep the wiki content up to date unless they
are funded to do so, which they are not. http://apps.linuxaudio.org
If there are questions about editing the wiki it's entirely reasonable
to
discuss here.
I would appreciate an administrator who has an overview about Linux
audio projects, speaking good English, with a relaxed nature, to inform
her/him _once a year_ about dead links or anything outdated else.
It's not in everybody to edit a Wiki.
There is also an opportunity for a motivated person to
organise a spring
cleaning session and take the lead to inspire and motivate other members
of the community to lend a hand...
Emanuel Rumpf has taken up that mantle - he send us a new stylesheet
(work in progress) for the wiki and is also responsible for most of the
additions to the apps-index and many wiki-pages. Kudos!
I'm planning a wiki-overhaul (wiki engine update, tag-name cleanup,
auto-highlight 404, etc) as part of a general system-update of the
linuxaudio.org server mid July. I'll announce it in time.
Cheers!
