I don't get what you mean by suggestions Gerd, but I've now got 2 rules page submissions of mine published so far (after years of not submitting any). That's after submitting them almost a month ago. I still have 8 unpublished rules pages in the queue, from back then. I have ideas for 28 more submissions, but first I'm waiting to see how long the process takes these days, and also it may be best to first concentrate on satisfying any wishes editor(s) may wish for any of those 8 still in the queue at present.

I've been a member at this site since 2015 (maybe such a start date belongs on a person's Personal Information page), and I have experience making submissions, though some slight changes to the process were made some years back. I'm rusty though, and may have omitted something else in my latest submissions' editing process to date.

In at least one case, I noticed someone else's submission took 2 months to be approved - not counting ones lingering from a few years back still unpublished (possibly the authors stopped visiting the site) - some of those get deleted by editor(s) sometimes after years pass.

As far as I can tell, Fergus and Ben are the only active editors that may handle submissions, and Fergus is especially busy being the webmaster. Dr. Muller specializes in other things, though he [only] comments on submissions sometimes. The only other listed editor I know of that could become active again anytime soon is Greg Strong. I emailed him recently on unrelated matters (that is, to see how he was doing), and he may be back to regularly visiting this website again, after a while.

My latest 'suggestion' is more of a comment about the site, as I would call it (I can go for a long time without making any such comments). It is related to the Diagram Designer, and I have no idea whether it can lead to any change to the way that Tool works, or to the current policy about how it should be used.

Quick Markdown Guide

By default, new comments may be entered as Markdown, simple markup syntax designed to be readable and not look like markup. Comments stored as Markdown will be converted to HTML by Parsedown before displaying them. This follows the Github Flavored Markdown Spec with support for Markdown Extra. For a good overview of Markdown in general, check out the Markdown Guide. Here is a quick comparison of some commonly used Markdown with the rendered result:

Top level header: <H1>

Block quote

Second paragraph in block quote

First Paragraph of response. Italics, bold, and bold italics.

Second Paragraph after blank line. Here is some HTML code mixed in with the Markdown, and here is the same <U>HTML code</U> enclosed by backticks.

Secondary Header: <H2>

  • Second unordered list item
  • New unordered list
    • Nested list item

Third Level header <H3>
