+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+haskell-semigroups:
+haskell-semigroups: In mathematics, a semigroup is an algebraic structure consisting of
+haskell-semigroups: a set together with an associative binary operation. A semigroup
+haskell-semigroups: generalizes a monoid in that there might not exist an identity
+haskell-semigroups: element. It also (originally) generalized a group (a monoid with all
+haskell-semigroups: inverses) to a type where every element did not have to have an
+haskell-semigroups: inverse, thus the name semigroup.
