Some links will take you away from this set of pages, but everything must leave it easy to get back.
Minimum path length vs uncluttered pages. I am trying to achieve this on a main page with 5 main branches by using collapsible boxes and transcluded subpages. It may work. · · · Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 13:39, 26 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Would be good if they can have a collapse (hide) button at the bottom as well as at the top · · · Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 10:02, 24 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

We want feedback from interested and affected parties about what went well and what could be improved, with suggestions. We are trying to set up a re-usable system, so fixing broken stuff is important.· · · Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 10:26, 24 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
