: Agreed on all counts Robin. As always it's a question of priorities. Personally I struggle to retain discipline and focus on these infrastructure matters when there is so much news and historical research information demanding my attention every day. However I've yet to see a suggestion or modification from you which has not enhanced the project, so please continue. It's much appreciated. I'll chip in as and when something grabs me.

More Standardisation, Unique Icons Needed

There's always a tradeoff between having more of these (= can be more precise) and having less (easy to choose which one to add, easy to read). I'm trying to standardise these and I think the one we have are too similar and overlap each other a lot.

They work well when they quickly convey information to readers (which we hope will be repeat readers/editors) - so alongside the simple text (which we may want to include links, e.g. to the WP problem pages) they need a unique icon so that experienced readers can just soak in the information without needing to read the text. So, I think we should aim for unique icons, which will help us (editors) as well as our readers distinguish these categories.

Agreed on all counts Robin. As always it's a question of priorities.

However I've yet to see a suggestion or modification from you which has not enhanced the project, so please continue. It's much appreciated. I'll chip in as and when something grabs me.
