No, as you've no doubt noticed there's plenty of obsolete code examples on the wiki, because we've changed how things are done, how modules are imported, etc.

However, the code that pioneer runs on is always valid (ehum, except when there's bugs in them). Either way, it's good to point a reader to modules that are a good place to start reading code, that are simple.

Yes, well, I'm updating it now. This time it became obsolete a bit faster because I erroneously relied on onShipDocked to work in a certain way.

Sure, I can do more of that.

Why, what? You mean the move to markdown?
The modder/developer-facing side of the wiki is *also* planned to be obsoleted / removed entirely and migrated to Markdown, but it's been a matter of "not enough hours in the day" so far on that front. We have one major "quadrant" of the wiki migrated at this point, and are slowly building out the "workflow" section (perhaps we should rename it to Content Creation?). Feel free to look at pioneer-developer-docs if you're interested in helping to migrate content.
