Moving Categories About

[AB Editor]

Morning.

I'm going to move some categories about today.

Firstly I'd like to put either: Ed's blog within Suggestions, or Suggestions within Ed's blog.

Which way round should it be?

Any other movement suggestions welcome.

Suggestions in to blog but why don't you call it Ed's Corner (or some such thing) with blog and suggestions as sub cats so new people will know this is the general area for editorial team. Otherwise people wouldn't necessarily think blog would be part of a suggestions area and vice versa.

Great idea, China Doll.

You know what you can do with your Ed's blog?



Stick it in your Suggestions

[ChuckFickens]

I'd love to make an intelligent suggestion about renaming suggestions something like "site feedback" or similar.... But I know it wouldn't stop people posting crossword questions in there

[Robinia]

Ditto CD

that saves typing an answer :)

[daffy654]

'Adverts' moved to Media and TV.

[ummmm]

Suggestions to blog. Some people think 'suggestions' is for asking for 'suggestions' on varying topics.

As part of the consolidation I suggest we get rid of Celebrity Gossip, Celebrity Fashion and maybe Share Dealing and Gigs&Clubs

[factor-fiction]

Good one daffy.

Current Affairs and Politics could go - all that stuff goes into News anyway.

The real problem is that people don't know that subcategories exist. You can see them by clicking on Topics - but why would anyone click on Topics? So my instinct would be to keep blog & suggs separate unless you want to lose most of the passing trade for one of them.

I think the number of Sport sections could be reduced- for example I'm not sure we need a Boxing section.

R&S could go into Boxing

[redman41]

Combining the two under Ed's blog would be better Ed, easier to keep tabs on everything..

What about a category headed "Sin Bin" for those who have the temerity to post in the wrong section.
We MUST have order and some of the grumpier parishoners may notice the sound of blood pounding in their ears abates as a result.

[ELVIS68]

Can you give AOG his own section?

Call it Daz..... For brilliant whites

[mike11111]

You could make jokes a topic of its own. I've never understood why it is a subcat of phrases and sayings.

[douglas9401]

I'd go with Omo, Elvis, more inclusive. He'd like that.

[ummmm]

Lol @ Elvis.

[wolf63]

Call it "Ed's Gnomeland" - better verbally, "Ed's Homeland" with a gnome slant.

Is there any benefit in getting rid of the following topics/sub-topics?

• “share dealing”
• merge “pets” into “animals and nature” ie not as a separate sub-section
• “eating out”
• “drinks”
• “myths and legends”
• “career advice”

and add a special “Spam” section into “Shopping”

[vivandorron]

I've never understood as to why there is a box for Jokes in our 'Private Profiles' ; apart from others such as Favourite Team etc.

What happens to the information.?

Ron.
