There have been a number of discussions on e-mail about how to improve this, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webplatform/2012Dec/0146.html for the start of the thread. The most sensible so far, in my mind at least, comes from a recent exchange between Chris Mills (me) and Julee Burdekin, which says that we should replace "Tutorials" and "More" with * "Events", which could link to our events page (currently there's a rough version at http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Community/Community_Events), or perhaps we could title it "Community" and have it linking to a more expanded page that includes some blurb on what we do in the community, Doc Sprint in a box, and a list of upcoming events you can participate in. I would prefer the latter, as a better balanced, more complete page to link to, which would kill multiple birds with one stone. * "Editors", which could link to the forthcoming editors guide (http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Editors_Guide). A place for editors old and new to access the info they need to get on with contributing to the site. Chat, meanwhile, could be replaced with a more general link — "Discuss" — which would include info about all methods of communication/discussion we have available. What do we think? Provided we agree, I will create separate actions for * Finish community page and link main nav to it * Finish editors guide and link main nav to it * Update Chat to Discuss, and add updated text to that page. Note: Updated text for the "Discuss page can be found at http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/TEST:discuss 81391 1 cmills 2013-01-15 11:28:29 +0000 After more discussion about this on the mailing list, we have decided to go with five menu items for now: * Docs * Editing (since we really don't have links to "editors" there) * Discussion * Blog * Community Events (so as not to confuse with API events) 83442 2 jonathan 2013-02-20 23:44:19 +0000 New location: http://project.webplatform.org/content/issues/14
