I would suggest adding a single paragraph at the beginning which 
summarizes the language and it's benefits. It should be straight to the 
point. The first item on that page is type deduction, which isn't a good 
way to start.

What type of language is it? It's a statically typed language which 
compiles to native machine code, but with modern features like garbage 
collection or dynamic arrays.

What are its benefits? Higher productivity, fewer bugs, native speed, 
fast compilation.

Those are the first things to come to mind when I think of D. Then in 
the following bullet points, you can provide examples and break it down 
in greater detail.
