Optimizing code for one segment of readers is pessimizing it for another. Instead of dumbing down the smart code, I'd like to help your friends to help each other find dumber code, *and* to help others of us find smarter code.<br>

I'd love to help newbies get the hang of Haskell without having to jump in the deep (and smart-infested) end first. And I'd love for people to keep writing smart code for non-newbies to enjoy.<br>
<br>
Perhaps a practical suggestion would be some wiki pages devoted to pointing out code with various learning qualities, to help haskellers of all levels of experience learn effectively.<br>

Yes, this is a good start.<br>
<br>
Advices to people learning Haskell about how to learn reading code.<br>
And advices to experienced Haskell programmers about how to document their code so that it may help less experienced programmers.<br>
<br>
IMHO, this should also go in the future Haskell coding style.<br>
