A few (hopefully not too pedantic!) further thoughts/questions:
  • Not long ago, I noticed that capitalisation of wiki article titles was inconsistent, and, in the absence of objections, standardised on sentence case. I've noticed that for the most part on the News page, we've been using title case for headings and sub-headings, with the exception of the "Books and book reviews" headings, which are in sentence case. Was it a deliberate decision on your part to use title case for (sub)headings in News articles, Chris, or was it more instinctive? And, if the latter, do you remain comfortable with it? I ask because, browsing through all of our other wiki articles, I notice that - very curiously! - we seem to have standardised without explicit agreement upon sentence case for (sub)headings. Perhaps we should strive for consistency on this across the wiki?
  • Did you deliberately choose the order in which you have listed the subheadings under each major section, or has that just emerged organically? If the latter, what are your thoughts on how to order these sections when you do consider it explicitly?
  • We are currently distinguishing between blogs and articles. Should we continue to do so, or is this a needless separation of essentially identical content? (A sincere question - not meant to be leading/rhetorical)

Thanks. On the headings, actually I tend to prefer sentence case myself, and the reason for the title case in the headings was that I just copied them from the forum and thread titles on the main page of PQ (I think it's only the one I made up myself - "Books and book reviews" that's in sentence case). So no objection from me to using title case instead.

I tried to order the sections in a reasonably appropriate way, but if anyone has any alternative ideas they'd be welcome. I'm not sure where "Psi Encyclopedia" should really be, but I think it needs its own section because the new entries are so frequent at the moment. I'd be happy to combine "Articles and blog posts." Perhaps "Papers" should be "Published papers and preprints."
