in reply to The Scriptorium impact on the Titlebar and the Front page

Patience. We've barely created the section. It may eventually make it into the title bar and/or "Sections" nodelet, but I think "Left Overs" is more likely. But there will never be any effect of this section upon the front page (it isn't appropriate there), and we don't need to rush; with more experience in how discussions here work, we can better decide policy.

Although I think that allowing the public to comment within dicussions here is a good idea, don't make a big deal about "stated ... specific policy" since allowing public comment was also a matter of expediency since doing otherwise requires more site changes.

I'd also like to ammend my title suggestion to "Inner Scriptorium", to better reflect that much of what is discussed here should be of little concern to most of our users even though anyone who has the interest can take the time to read.

    I like "Site Scriptorium" more than "Inner Scriptorium" personally. It goes with the "Site Manuscript" designation used elsewhere a bit better I think.

    Having said that, perhaps the other designation should just be "Internal Manuscript"

      "Inner" seems more appropriate than "Site". But Scriptorium sounds like a bad Metallica song.

        Were there any good Metallica songs? ;-)

      I like “Inner Scriptorium” better.

      “Site Scriptorium” suggests that the section is somehow related to the use of the site, which is not the case.

      Makeshifts last the longest.

    a Good choice I haven't thought about, thanks.
