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.
