This page contains notes about the idea of categorizing every wiki page with a type that will be used in workflows, alerts, reports, gamification, reminders, leaderboards, etc.  It would add the most value if I made a mandatory rule that every page must have one and only one type classification. All of the notes from while I was developing the [[Page Type Uses]] was moved to the [[Page Type Brainstorming]] page.

=== ChatGPT Specs ===
Based on a conversation where we worked out the details, ChatGPT created this [[WikiFam Requirements and Specifications]]
 
=== Wiki Mode ===
When new users create their wikis, they will have two options (perhaps more in the future):
 
* Standard Wiki: A flexible MediaWiki experience with optional starter content.
* PARA Wiki: A structured personal knowledge management system


=== Page Type and Status ===
=== Page Type and Status ===
Every wiki page will have four properties:  Type, Status, Area, and Topic.  We could call them Page_Type, Page_Status, etc.  Please use standard naming conventions and keep things as intuitive as possible.  Pages will also have type-specific metadata and may have topic-specific metadata.
The table below shows each of the six default Page Types, the allowable Statuses for each, and a description of the content.

=== Guiding Principles for Page Properties. ===
=== Guiding Principles for Page Properties. ===
* Every page has a Type and Status. Pages can also be connected to Areas, Projects, and Topics.
* Every page has a Type and Status. Pages can also be connected to Areas, Projects, and Topics.
** Type = How will I use this page?
** Type = How will I use this page?
** Status = Is it currently relevant/active?
** Status = Is it currently relevant/active?

** Project = What outcome does it support?
** Project = What outcome does it support?
** Topic = What is it about?
** Topic = What is it about?
* The Type describes how the content on the page will be used.  Every page is assigned one and only one Type.
* There are six default page types; more may be added later.  Users cannot add new Types.
* There are six default page types; more may be added later.  Users cannot add new Types.
* The Status determines visibility and searchability. Every page is assigned one and only one Status.
* PageStatus determines whether a page is included in default views, searches, selectors, reports, and workflows. Archived pages remain accessible but may be excluded by default. Every page is assigned one and only one Status.
* There are three default page statuses; more may be added later.  Users cannot add new Statuses.
* There are three default page statuses; more may be added later.  Users cannot add new Statuses.
* These guidelines are offered to new users to help them determine what to create for Areas and Topics.
* These guidelines are offered to new users to help them determine what to create for Areas and Topics.
*# If it is an ongoing responsibility or something that is actively maintained, it is an Area.
*# An ''area'' is an ongoing responsibility, activity, or something you intentionally maintain or develop over time
*# If you typically spend less than an hour per week doing or thinking about something, then it could be a Topic.  But only create Topics for things that you think you might eventually have multiple pages about.
*# A ''topic'' is a subject that can connect multiple pages but does not represent an ongoing responsibility or activity you maintain.   
* An Area may have zero or one Parent Area.
* Pages will also have type-specific metadata and may have topic-specific metadata.
* An Area may have zero or one Parent Area.
* Any page with a type other than Area may have zero or more Related Areas.
* Any page with a type other than Area may have zero or more Related Areas.
* Areas can have parent Areas.  Photography has Hobbies as a parent.  Yoga has Health & Fitness as a parent.
* Areas can have parent Areas.  Photography has Hobbies as a parent.  Yoga has Health & Fitness as a parent.
* A parent Area page (e.g. Household) does not have any areas assigned.
* A top-level Area has no ParentArea.
* When assigning an area to a page, the list of optional areas includes all pages of type: Area; status: Active; Area: NULL.  Users can optionally check a box to include Archived pages in the list of available options.
* When assigning an area to a page, the list of optional areas includes all pages of type: Area; status: Active.  Users can optionally check a box to include Archived pages in the list of available options.
* When assigning a project to a page, the list of optional projects includes all pages of type: Project; status: Active. Users can optionally check a box to include Archived pages in the list of available options.
* When assigning a project to a page, the list of optional projects includes all pages of type: Project; status: Active. Users can optionally check a box to include Archived pages in the list of available options.
* Status and Type are mandatory with a maximum of one assigned.  Area and Topic are optional - the "system" does not require there be a maximum of Areas and Topics assigned to any page, but if you recommend, we could set a max of three or four (for each or combined)
* PageType and PageStatus are mandatory, and each has exactly one value.  Area and Topic are optional; we recommend a maximum of three each, but there is no restriction on the quantity.
* Every Hobby gets its own Area of the same name; the page for the hobby is type: Area; area: Hobby
* A hobby that the user actively practices or develops should be represented as an Area, optionally beneath the Hobbies Area.
* Pages assigned to the project will automatically have the area(s) of that project assigned to them by default.  Users may remove them and/or add new Areas and/or Topics.
* When a project is assigned to a page, the related areas of the project are also assigned to the page by default.  Users may remove them and/or add new Areas and/or Topics.
* Every page that is not type: Area should have at least one Area or Topic assigned. There should be a notification to the user that is visible on that page as well as in the user's Status page.
* Every non-Area page should normally have at least one Related Area, Related Project, or Related Topic. Pages that do not are considered unclassified and are flagged for review.
