Please bring your questions and concerns here. As other users see them we can work on getting good resolutions to the problems and make it a better site for everyone.
Where we are - What works and what doesn't
1. The help files and tutorials are somewhat chaotic. The borrowing from Wikipedia left them in a mess. References to Wikipedia probably need to point to ConRunner, to WikiMedia, or be deleted. Basic definitions of terms can point back to Wikipedia, but specialized terms should be defined here.
2. The templates are messed up too. Same basic problem as above. Wikimedia has a lot more templates than we'll ever need, so I suspect the answer here is to just simplify the templates.
Where we are going - Suggestions for the future
1. Every one of the articles can use some cleanup. And wikification. And added information. It is a skeleton that needs flesh badly.
2. The main page is set to have a feratured article on the left, and the function chart on the right. Good idea? Seems like this will give a glimpse of the whole point of the site right on page 1. We are in a building phase right now, but eventually we will be an information source and the chart is like a table of contents.
3. Eventually, I'd like to add a calendar of upcoming cons to the Main Page. I'm not sure how this should be done, but a look ahead would be both informative and give people windows onto how different cons are run.
