Revision as of 11:08, 20 April 2008

These are proposals that are being managed on an ad hoc basis by selected individuals.

Unified Feature-Rich Workgroup page design template

Summary: Many workgroups are highly developed; some are marginally developed, and others are not developed. It could be beneficial to have a single flexible template that would be easy to implement for all workgroup home pages.
Original proposer: --Robert W King 12:21, 1 April 2008 (CDT) Next step: Community Discussion and Polling
Driver: Robert King To be done by: April 30th
Complete proposal


Recipes Subpage and Accompanying Usage Policy

Summary: A new subpages option will be added to the subages template and an accompanying content policy will be written on CZ:Recipes.
Original proposer: Hayford Peirce 16:50, 12 February 2008 (CST) Next step: Leaving CZ:Recipes to evolve with time and getting the proposal formalized. Once the newly formed Editorial Council takes charge, the proposal can be put there for acceptance by acclamation.
Driver: Supten Sarbadhikari To be done by: April 03, 2008
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
Complete proposal


Naming Conventions for Biographies

Summary: to adopt conventions for the naming of articles about people, living and dead. The basic principle proposed is: In general, an article about a person ought to live at the name at which the person is best-known to educated English-speaking people, with redirects from all common alternates. Significant levels of detail are offered.
Original proposer: Anthony Argyriou 14:31, 14 February 2008 (CST) Next step: Prepare final versions of the two variant proposals; put up to a vote.
Driver: Anthony Argyriou To be done by: 24 March 2008
Notes: originally proposed at CZ Talk:Naming Conventions#Names of articles about people, with no response.
Complete proposal


Romanization

Summary: Create a page called CZ:Romanization to deal with issues of how to romanize foreign words, placenames etc. that are normally written in other scripts, with subpages for individual languages, e.g. CZ:Romanization/Japanese. These pages would initially be for interested parties to discuss which romanization systems to adopt, eventually leading to official guidelines.
Original proposer: John Stephenson 02:25, 4 March 2008 (CST) Next step: Move to sponsorship
Driver: John Stephenson To be done by: dependent on response
Notes: I foresee a series of rows about this in the future because, for example, Japanese words can be rendered in the Latin alphabet in several different ways even within the same system, and there is more than one romanization system in use anyway.
