Unfortunately the wiki is reasonably well hidden for such a potentially valuable resource. A visitor looking for such information might expect it to be linked from the main page. Or at least referenced under the category "documentation". But, alas, you must poke around under "community", stumble over to "resources" (with its importance cleverly de-emphasized by being only mentioned in an inline link mid-sentence). If you follow that link you will find the wiki as the third entry among resources. Note: while I do think that the wiki should be more obvious, I do not intend the above sarcasm to be a knock on the people involved. The website has improved dramatically over the last few years and I can't think of any other open-source project with the quantity, quality and range of documentation available. There is so much available that it becomes difficult to arrange it in a quick 'n' easy way. Cheers, Steve

But yes, a common plate would be good. If there were 100 usage examples of pgsql functions on the wiki, I'd read every page.

Spotted it yesterday. Hey, you're right. Somehow I glanced at the page two or three times and didn't see it hiding over there. Cheers, Steve
