These are proposals that are being managed on an ad hoc basis by selected individuals.
How should we classify and index recipes?
Summary: A new subpage type should be created CZ:Recipes. Anyone interested may take the lead in creating CZ:Recipes and then the Recipe subpage support should be added to the subpage system. The subpage may be bilaterally linked with the Cooking page.

Notes: What should we do about listing, and/or cataloging, and/or indexing the recipes that I am beginning to put into various preexisting articles. Various people discussed this in the talk page of Bolognese sauce but nothing concrete appears to have come of that discussion. Even without any definitive policy being put into place in the near future, I will continue to add recipes to various articles. I imagine that it will not be difficult to catalog, or subpage them, or whatever, when the time comes. Hayford Peirce

Standard naming of biomedical (and other) articles
Summary: Encourage and facilitate usage of the National Library of Medicine's MeSH browser (browser search plugins are available) in order to select canonical terms to be used as titles (when such terms are available). The benefits of this are: 1) reduce the chance of two authors independently writing two articles in parallel on the same content (but with different titles), 2) offer standardized definitions of terms that can be used at the beginning of articles, 3) anticipate common alternative terms that can be set up as redirects when the article is written, 4) facilitate the linking to CZ from other biomedical databases when web 2 arrives. As an example, we have an article titled Concussion of the brain which according to MeSH, might be better titled 'Brain concussion' with a separate page called 'Cerebral concussion' that redirects to this page.

Article Content Request help
Summary: Article Content Request should exist in order for authors to request article assistance on particular topics within a subject. This is not intended to be a request for editorial review, rather, it is a system devised to empower citizens to help out on subjects that they might know about. It is meant to spur activity and input from those who might have knowledge in a discipline.
