:::::Now that I think about it, the best solution would be to update the C++ code in the Carbon repo with your code. Then Wikipedia can cite it and also you will be happy. So I would say, open a PR and see what happens. At least that way there will be an official response / nonresponse.

Attempting the best solution sounds like a good idea to me, [https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/3735 opened a PR] as suggested --[[User:Ybab321|Ybab321]] ([[User talk:Ybab321|talk]]) 21:24, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
: OK my PR has been merged now. I'm still OK with the C++ code not being there per the "generally they don't do language comparisons" observation, though Carbon's relationship with C++ is a special one. I'm not really sure what makes the most sense, but I'll add the code comparison back in seeing as we went down this route --[[User:Ybab321|Ybab321]] ([[User talk:Ybab321|talk]]) 23:55, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
::I would say at present, the article's biggest issue is the lack of material. There are just not many sources. But the code comparison at least makes it not look like a stub. I would say it's fine for now. [[User:Mathnerd314159|Mathnerd314159]] ([[User talk:Mathnerd314159|talk]]) 03:57, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Would there be any merit to adding newlines to the code blocks in [[Carbon#Example|§Example]] to align similar bits of the two blocks side-by-side? [[User:Arkadios 200|Arkadios 200]] ([[User talk:Arkadios 200|talk]]) 10:04, 2 March 2025 (UTC)
 
:There is an issue with line wrapping on smaller screens. I think a newline or two might help, but you would have to be careful to check that it looks good at all window widths. [[User:Mathnerd314159|Mathnerd314159]] ([[User talk:Mathnerd314159|talk]]) 00:07, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
