:Something like the Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style Manual of Style] is always a good place to start. Another place to look for examples are in some of the programming manuals on Wikibooks. Here's one of the pages in the C++ manual for instance.

Can I suggest that we add a new section or link on the main page for general development tools and articles that sit outside of the existing Web/Windows/WS/Console categories.

:Sounds perfectly sensible to me... "Other" as a general catch-all, or "Other Tools": a bit more specific, but then we might have issues with things that fell outside that ''and'' our existing sections. --[[User:Mikepeat|Mike]] 00:14, 23 November 2007 (CET) | :Sounds perfectly sensible to me...

:: I am OK with a "tools" section. We can still lay down the law in that page :P The trick is to create a separate page for each tool we want to describe - and keep the external links down to a minimum (this should make it easier to keep track of the content on the page). I think the title "Development tools" could work. articles not related to these sections can be attached to a specific user page - we should try not to clutter the frontpage and 1st level navigation too much. --[[User:Jka|Jka]] 08:15, 23 November 2007 (CET) |
