I has a dream last night that I started a project called "The Example Project", which aimed to add an EXAMPLES section to every manual page for open source software. I set up a ticketing system and asked people to open an issue for every manual page without an EXAMPLES section, or without an example for the simplest, most straightforward, most common way of using the software.
It was a bit of a nightmare, to be honest.
But otherwise the project seems like it might be worthwhile. WDYT?
