<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:tahoma,new york,times,serif;font-size:12pt">my only comment regarding the images is that it would be very nice if all language versions of the wiki used the same image. Therefore then, the same image would be used perhaps 10 times, once for every language. However, then when a new version comes out, the new page uses a new version of the image; categorization might make it easier for the foreign language editor to find the new version; alternatively they can just look and copy the link to the image. <br><div> </div>----------------<br>Sent by Roger Wickes for intended recipient.

years and two people working 10 hours per week on it.<br>-> keep it as simple as possible for others to contribute. <br>-> make it easy to share the content with other places and keep the license as <br>open as possible.<br>-> keep the structure flat so that you can rearrange the table of contents <br>without moving the pages.<br>-> most images can be used only once, because they show something specific. If <br>they show something specific it shouldn't be necessary to describe them <br>twice, so they are used at a unique place. This may be different for <br>tutorials though.<br>-> keep old pages intact, including the images. At least the author of the <br>page needs to be honored, don't throw his work away he will never come back.<br>-> never ever offend an author by ripping a page apart he has written. The <br>authors are the most valuable good you have, honor their work they do it <br>voluntarily. <br><br><br>But go ahead and do as
you like.... <br><br><br><br>-----Inline Message Follows-----<br><br>I need to get the page <br>"Doc:Manual/Physics/Particles"<br>to be deleted.
