Wiki Page Properties: Difference between revisions

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. [[Page Type Uses]].  All of the notes from while I was developing the [[Page Type Uses]] was moved to the [[Page Type Brainstorming]] page.

Guiding Principles
* The page type should describe a page's purpose. 
* If it isn't an ongoing responsibility or something that is actively maintained, it is a Resource.  If you frequently go 2 weeks without thinking about this, then it is a Resource.
* In general, if you spend more than an hour per week doing or thinking about something, then it is probably an Area
* Every Area gets a top level section in the Main Page, except Hobbies
* Every Hobby gets its own area; the page for the Hobby is type: Area; area: Hobbies
** A page within the Hobby will probably have a type: Reference; area: Photography
* Pages assigned to the project will automatically have the areas of that project assigned to each page by default
