| From my experience, I would recommend longer pages, instead of dividing a topic into lots of subpages. When there are too many subpages, I've found that some will be updated, and some will fall out of date. (Of course, use your judgment here.) Admins: it is recommended that you watch the changes [[http://wiki.hcoop.net/RecentChanges?action=rss_rc&diffs=1&ddiffs=1|RSS feed]] to keep informed of what everyone is up to. Then, please document all of your work on here somewhere - that way we will not only have a record, but everyone gets notified about what is going on. Alternatively, you can create a wiki account and subscribe to the page regex `.*` (all pages). |
