This is the thread's initial revision.
This is the thread's initial revision.
Each issue page should have a descriptive sidebar that helps categorize the issue (using one or more categories), provides a map of where the issue fits within its category, and provides a short description of how well-developed the issue page is.
"Well-developed" will require some definition and consensus. Some suggested axes to look at when determining overall quality:
- Number of sources cited
- Quality of sources cited (difficult to measure!)
- Quality of analysis (also difficult to measure)
- Stylistic quality (writing, links to other pages, images, etc)
It would also be beneficial to create a template for the citations themselves, again with some kind of "quality" rating, as well as a category (opinion/primary source/secondary/etc) and links to pages about the authors and publications involved. These pages could be used to discuss any perceived bias in the source authors or publications.
