Wiki subject titles

[pit 4 brains]

I was just browsing through the Wiki section and I noticed there are more Wikis poping up that are titled "How to ...".

I'm gonna suggest that Wiki titles begin with the major subject so they will be easier to find by the alphabetic search. Most wikis are gonna be " how to's" so they might gather under the H's instead of where they need to be. Any thoughts?

I agree,

yea, right now its not a problem because they not many, but in a few years when theres several hundred, it'll be a real problem

Do we need a Wiki moderator that can re-title posts as necessary?

 

[indyadmin1974]

Agree

I agree with the Wiki moderator person with the senior "members" providing guidance on namimg conventions i.e.

Beef - Marinades; Pork - Ribs; Smokers - UDS  etc.

I would even be tempted to volunteer my time as a NOOB happy to pay his "dues" for all the info I have already.

ps...I spied my two new barrels in a farmers field today near a for sale sign...going back tomorrow...

Here's my vote.

I think it would be a great idea for someone to moderate the wiki titles.

It would be easier if people titled them correctly to begin with its not real easy to change titles of wikis not immposible but not easy.

We can't just click a button and edit the titles to wikis

Maybe mention the idea in the Wiki section just to make wiki posters more aware of the idea.. Not a big deal by no means.

Jerry speaks the truth, 'I've had to cancel some because I misspelled something in the title, leaving me to start over again.

I agree that the articles should be named starting with the primary subject. Another thought...  Can tags be added while creating the article or only after? Making sure that people add tags will make searching easier. I didn't look, but is there an advanced search for wikis?

Maybe wikis should be approved before posted? Just a thought.

 I second that motion.

This would be a good way to verify that the title matches the subject and verify that the information is true and credible, which would ensure that [we] maintain a credible wiki.
