Goals

  • Maximize visual real estate - minimize scrolling & nested click-throughs needed to get real data. Searches can be encouraged, as well as category-surfing.
  • Concentrate on the positive - rather than just defnite what is unacceptable, promote what is desired.
  • Minimize required human fiddling - Categories are good, automated groupings.
  • Co-ordinate changes - the nanog-faq mailing list is moribund. Use the Talk page for given elements to explain what is happening and why.
    • Suggest changes (other than simple facts, spelling or grammar) to structure or content existing pages in the main namespace 24-48 hours before executing them.
    • Use sections in the Talk pages to thread the discussions.
    • Sign your work, in Talk pages and elsewhere.
