A Proposal for the Sub-Section Debate
12 Answers
How about removing all the sub-sections and instead list under each topic appropriate subjects for that topic? This would surely also have the advantage of fewer question being posted in the wrong topic. In other words, the Topics list would look something like this:
ADVERTS
(TV, Radio, Press, Other)
ANIMALS & NATURE
(Environment, Pets, Wildlife)
ARTS & LITERATURE
(Books & Authors, Performing Arts, Visual Arts)
BODY & SOUL
(Beauty, Health & Fitness, Relationships & Dating)
BUSINESS & FINANCE
(Business, Investing, Personal Finance)
FAMILY
(Family Life, Parenting, Pregnancy)
FILM, TV & RADIO
(Cinema, TV, Radio, Celebrity Gossip)
FOOD & DRINK

GAMING

Yes, but my point is that there are now 95 places where questions can be posted plus AB Ed's blog. This is too many and is too time-consuming to go through looking for something interesting or for something to which you might like to give an answer even if, like me, you don't look at all topics.
My original suggestion was to do away with the sub-sections and to list appropriate subjects for each topic.

Since re-reading your question, it certainly makes more sense to do what you have suggested. Plus the fact that I've just had time to peruse & notice that some AB'ers aren't even using the sub-cat's, only the main headings.
Bit of a waste of time having them if they're not going to be used to their full potential. nite, nite!

Me too Cetti!
We've just bought even more bird feeders & it's wonderful watching them all flitting about, picking & choosing which one to eat from!
P.S. Just got back from visiting our 6 year old Granddaughter in hospital - she had her tonsils out at 4:00pm today & looks like a poor little bird, bless her!
