Call to action: updating the D Wiki Cookbook

Currently there is a lot of outdated code which no longer works, 
links to the now-dead dpaste website and code which can be 
improved a lot on https://wiki.dlang.org/Cookbook

Just now I rewrote and upgraded

https://wiki.dlang.org/Using_string_mixins_for_logging

to

https://wiki.dlang.org/Logging_mechanisms


Let's update the cookbook section to the newest standards and 
fill the current WIP pages with content. If you work on something 
I think it might be best if you also post it here so people know 
what is being worked on and can pick different things.

For best results use as many language idioms as make sense and 
are useful, use the standard library instead of writing boiler 
plate code and write easy to understand / documented code.

Things that need work:

- new content
- upgrade dpaste links to run.dlang.io
- add/update Wiki metadata (mark unfinished pages as Draft)
- proofreading
- finally promoting pages from Draft to Established

This section of the Wiki is directly linked on the front page of 
the Wiki and could become a central spot to share code idioms and 
example code. It is currently in quite a bad shape and needs some 
polishing, however it has a good starting foundation.
