The point of these is to spread out the knowledge, experience, and wisdom of the monks around other points Perl. I'll try to do more of these, hence the #1, over time. Remember knowledge is power and power corrupts; um, so get out there and corrode.

Part one: build out cpanratings. It's a great resource but there are often not enough reviews to be useful. Please if you're inclined, have used the module in question, and have something useful, positive or otherwise, to say about any of the following, pick one and rate. The focus this time is modules without any ratings.

You'll have to have an account to sign in and write your ratings/reviews.

Part two: build out or correct a page in the Wikipedia for Perl.

update: added missing node/link
