in thread why '[cpan://module]' isn't always easy to use

Wouldn't it be easier to write a checker once, and not spending cleaning up after people for ever? I mean, this is a Perl site, and writing an pseudo-HTML checker shouldn't be too hard, should it?

    We have checking software in place. However we also have a policy of not modifying peoples posts without the change being accountable. So we dont unilaterally modify peoples posts, and we certainly wont use automatic measures to do so.

    The fact is that in this case the broken HTML is directly due to concious decisions made by Courage and as such the easiest thing to do is to ask him not to continue.
