In this precise example, I feel like the dynamic page is much less usable than the static page, due to the deep hierarchy. On the static version, clicking on the program name would give us the main page for that program, while on the dynamic version, it would lead us to another list of categories/page from which it's difficult to guess which one is the "main" one. We seem to bury the useful page down layers of category pages. Since the canonical list of programs is maintained in the governance repository (which should be published in a few days on its own website), I don't think we should duplicate it manually in the wiki anyway. My suggestion is therefore to recategorize all Category:Programs page into Category:Teams pages, so that all teams (whether officially recognized as a program or not) appear on the same dynamic page as far as the wiki is concerned. If people are interested in getting the list of official programs, they should get it from the governance repo / site anyway. > Pages generated automatically this way are a huge improvement to > navigation inside the wiki and I suggest you all to get familiar with > the list of Categories shown in a nice tree on: > > https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Category:Home +1 -- Autogenerated list of relevant pages shall make our wiki much more discoverable and browseable. -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
