the LSL_Portal is largely user maintained, so if you see out of date
information, you can simply edit it to update it to the current
information (single name accounts just add " Resident" to make the
login work). Do please read the editing guidelines though =)

The page the lists all the LSL functions seems to be a page that cannot be edited. I tried to update it, but found that I could not edit it.

I've done edits in the past but recently I was unable to. I had to file
a Web ticket that was processed within a day or two.

Are sure you the page you tried to edit wasn't a Category?

A category page in a wiki only simply indexes other articles automatically, it cannot be edited manually.
To have something added to the category, you'd need to add a category link to the function article itself.
The category will then automatically pick it up next time around. (I can't remember if this is updated instantaneously or whether it is cached for larger category pages)

In my case I was attempting to remove the caveat that described the
unofficial state change from a global function using if(TRUE) state xyz
which no longer works and probably borked thousands of scripts all over
SL. The caveat had suggested that it had worked for so long it was now
a useful feature. They took my suggestion and indicated that it no
longer works so someone trying to diagnose a problem would see it had
been removed, "corrected".

Those things used to be editable

I tracked it down when one of my scripts started failing, about 2 weeks
ago. I've only used it once or twice but others may show up :(. Since
it is possible for the script to handle the state transition from the
global function (as has been proven), I see no reason why it should not
be introduced as a supported function.
