I went looking for a method to evaluate a pigment and decided to search 
the web for documentation and found the POV-Ray Deep Wiki, powered by 
Devin. This seems to be a generated wiki based on the GitHub Repo.

https://deepwiki.com/POV-Ray/povray/1-overview

Is this something the developers and community know about or trust?

(I found what I was looking for: eval_pigment in functions.inc.)
