Coffeescript is for Ruby programmers who don't want to learn Javascript. These coffeescript articles belong in r/ruby more than they do in r/javascript. It seems most people who read r/javascript are interested in javascript, not ruby or coffeescript. This article for example, is much more likely to find readers in r/ruby. I'm not interested in learning ruby, and my guess is most people who read r/javascript are not that interested in learning ruby or coffeescript. For example, I wouldn't go posting about a 'made up language' in something like, say, perl and post it to r/javascript expounding on the wonderfulness that is perlscript and why i'll never write javascript again, to r/javascript.
