Factual articles vs guides, separate them on different namespaces?
My proposal for this is:
- Factual articles go on the main namespace
- Guides go in the guides namespace. These can be more subjective in their content.
- Specific tips on factual articles can remain on those articles, but they must be accepted by the general community.
Any comments on this setup? --Flun 16:47, 20 December 2012 (CET)
- Is there any way to add a "Strategy" tab like the Discussion one? Or something similar. My opinion is that if we want strategy completely separated by facts, the strategy section should be something integral with every page, like Discussion (any similar highlighted link in the main template should do, but a separate tab would shine). --Palin 22:04, 20 December 2012 (CET)
