As you may have noticed, I am getting stuck into article relationship rationalisation with a vengeance.
- I believe that we need a structure of categories and sub-categories to help untangle the web of different systems that have grown up alongside each other.
- We also need some conventions to work out what category/ies a particular article should be filed under. For example, I have in mind a History-->Organisation-->Institution-->Imperial Institution structure in mind (along with various alternate routes like History-->Organisation-->Corporation or H->O->I->Hiver Institution. It would be too unwieldy to file an article under up to four or five separate categories that are all essentially related, and probably better to stick to a top domain category and lowest e.g. History-->Imperial Instituion, while still nesting the categories themselves within higher domain categories, reducing clutter while allowing a high degree of navigation.
Any thoughts? --RASN Lt. Cmdr. Reijerink 00:30, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
