Functionality Musings
Submitted by Dan Dooré on Tue, 2006-05-02 16:46. Site MaintenanceSome thoughts I’ve had:
1. A field of ‘More Info Required’ that can be listed in a similar way to ‘Missing in Action’ to show which entries are a bit light on content or where the author is unsure of the info?
2. A related people list like related products?
3. Can the related products do a less-fuzzy match so that it treats the freelinked text as whole rather that as space delimited so that ‘Andy Monk’ doesn’t match any other ‘Andy’s?
4. Removing anonymous comments or adding anonymous editing with registered users able too roll-back to pervious versions.
