in thread Should We Have A "Red Flags" Area?
Thing is, "Red Flags" sounds too canonical. It sounds like "these are thing that may be empirically shown to be dangerous or wrong much of the time". If we want to write about our own coding styles, our biases and preferences, the way maybe we love to have dozens of variables like $user_address_streetaddress1 around, or the way we love to have pairs of parallel arrays instead of hashes... well, we've got Meditations, home nodes and scratchpads, Obfuscation, the CB, and other places depending on the specific bent of the rant.
It seems to me wasteful and counter-productive to create a new section dedicated to "this is the way I like to do stuff, and you ought to as well." Already that list of links at the top of the page is kind of expansive; I wouldn't think a listing of "Red Flags" would be of enough benefit to warrant the creation of an entire section for it.
