Yes.  I have been writing software since the '70s and have met or worked 
with many of the developers of Scheme, Smalltalk, Common Lisp, Algol, 
Simula, Cobol, ...  I sometimes forget there are people out there with 
no software language or development expertise.

In the absence of expertise to make a judgement directly, the editors 
are over-reliant on peer-reviewed journal publishers.  I guess this is 
prudent in a time when propaganda swamps news but is accepted as such.  
Unfortunately, more journals these days are having to retract published 
papers because of faked science or AI generated BS.

Hard on ESUG, FAST, and other conferences which don't do peer review but 
just invite knowledgeable people to share, however.

Anyway, I did give it a try.  Cuis is a small fish in the ocean.  
Certainly more fun to play with than Wikipedia!  Bodes well for growth.

Good on ya,
