If WRI hasn't sent me angry emails about my WLFiddle system does that mean I'm free to work with it as I will?

Why does documenting suck so much --____________--
If anyone can come up with a way to automatically generate truly useful examples from a function without knowing anything about it except the DownValues/SubValues/call signatures or w/e I'll give them like 5000 rep (if you want more I'll give you more, honestly).
I can automate everything else more or less

Q: Get matching types for pattern

b3m2a1I want to take a pattern and get a set of matching types. The set of types does not need to be complete, but it needs to satisfy, say, 90% of the cases. Here's is a (definitely not complete) set of examples: arg_ -> "Arbitrary" arg__ -> "Arbitrary sequence" arg___ -> "Arbitrary blank sequence" ...

If you can provide a 75% coverage method for that I'll give you a bunch of stuff. Be warned, it'll be super annoying to write :)
And of course might be useless as it is entirely dependent on people writing meaningful call signatures.

@HenrikSchumacher Thanks :)
I want this type of image(maybe with Plot..) I have done it with Graphics[Line[{.. , ...}]] But I need to show that the left side is infinite..

@taritgoswami cut it off with PlotRange

@taritgoswami You're welcome.
@taritgoswami In princiniple, you can try to scale the y-axis with ArcTan; that pushes infinity to a finite value. And then you may specify your own Ticks for the y-axis...

Now packages that can be identified on the @b3m2a1's paclet server by comparing URLs have a paclet button next to their description at PackageData:

For anyone who wants to play with @CarlLange's nice WikiData entity system I wrote a little layer on top of his stuff: github.com/b3m2a1/mathematica-tools/blob/master/…
If anyone wants to take over from there I think it'd be cool to use this as an alternate on-demand data system to load :) One thing that comes to mind is the extension of existing EntityStores (so that you could pull, say, the first 50 WD entities) and then later pull the next 50 and append them to the existing store. I've written that machinery before and it's not hard, just annoying.

@C.E. Hmm, I was the one who made that image - and I used M to do it :)
Well, I take that back, it's been modified a tad.

@bobthechemist that particular image was created from scratch by me on Thursday, and I have never seen anything like that except the image that I saw on 9gag, but that had a completely different look. But I'm not surprised that you, too, have made something like that since I know of your interest in the periodic table.

Hi everyone, has anyone wrote a tool to extract suboptions from doc pages? I was interested in getting access to them programmatically...
 
11:15 PM
The ref pages don't seem to import easily: ```fn = FileNameJoin[{$InstallationDirectory,
"Documentation/English/System/ReferencePages/Symbols/Solve.nb"}];
NotebookImport[fn, "ExampleSubsection"] (* evals to {} *)```
