Raspberry Pi info

John Pfersich-2
I noticed that the Raspberry Pi page SDK section on Wikipedia has no mention of Squeak or Scratch on it. The url is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi#Software_development_tools. I'd add something myself but figured Tim would probably do a better job of it.

Good catch. I’ll see if I can make any improvements.

You should link to the Pi Foundation's blog post as a citation - that way it's less likely to be debated.

Wow. That was an unpleasant experience in user interface implementation. I couldn’t add external links using their ‘visual editor’ stuff at all. Couldn’t make a cite either! Eventually got it done in the amazingly awful plain text editor, which has no assistance at all. I won’t be putting a lot of time into updating wikipedia pages…

Still, minor improvement achieved eventually. I suppose somebody else ought to create/link to a page all about how magnificent I am for making Scratch so much better ;-)

And oh my goodness, that wikipedia Scratch page. So much awfulness in one place.

And the Squeak page could do with a lot of work too. Not least updating to refer to Squeak 5!
