[edit] Page appearance

  • {{policy}} should not be on top of the discusion page, at least move it under «Introduction» heading
  • Please move «Introduction» section into a subpage (more convenient and will save some server space)
  • Please mention somewhere on the page what Incubator Plus is (I had to google it to find out)

  • Not needed I think, but feel free if you want to change it. By the way, it is the same as at Incubator:Administrators
  • This hasn't any effect on the server space. It happens much.
  • I will do that.

Well, the part «You may edit it, but please discuss major changes on the talk page first» (where «edit it» = «edit this page», since the notice is on top) clearly contradicts with the meaning «edit freely to leave your comment about requests below»
As for the server space... each edit, however small, creates a whole new version of the page. If the 1st part of the page (up to ==Requests==) could to replaced with {{/Header}}, then each version would take approx. 1500 bytes less. I agree it's not much, but it's still something. It's just a common practice to replace mostly unchangeable sections on discussion pages with a subpage transclusion

But it could be that it saves some server space if we leave it on this page. I don't know. Please take a look at w:Wikipedia:Don't worry about performance.
And, ok, i've moved the {{policy}} note. SPQRobin 15:27, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
