New Home Page 

 Organizing the Wiki The main page of the Wiki is over 60 pages long. I'd like to try to help break it into more manageable sections. Anybody want to help or comment please feel free. I'd also like to remove all the project-related discussions from other Discussion tabs. I think they're intended for discussion about the Wiki, not about the project.

IMHO it is too long. It is a big job to break it up though. I would suggest the main sections in a table format like on the debian wiki: http://wiki.debian.org/.--Hillie 01:38, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

This is a rough outline of the main FOG User Guide page Please feel free to edit this page or add comments. Does it make sense to break the main page into multiple sub-pages? Maybe most of this should stay on the main page. But I think a re-org is still necessary as the contents skip around.

= From 63 pages to just over 10! =

Made some major progress tonight. Still have more to clean up. Itismike 04:58, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi Hillie, thanks for the feedback. You've probably noticed I've been doing some serious slicing and dicing already, but I just saw your comment and would like to understand what you mean about the Debian Wiki page. Are you referring to the small icons at the bottom of the Debian page? I'm not against that but also am not sure how to break the sections up like that. Itismike 07:34, 18 February 2011 (UTC) Yes something like the small icons: a simple first page with 10 main categories or so.--Hillie 00:50, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
