We're low on ideas for articles so please throw us some, and we'll see what we can do. We also need some writers, so if you see a topic posted you're interested in, just let me or NightScript know.
I think it would be useful if articles had some form of tagging so users can browse articles that have tags associated with them that are relevant to the user's interests, this way you don't need redundant copies of an article if you want it to be in two or more categories as well increasing the likelihood that a user will come across an article they like with less effort. On the down side it would take a bit of an overhaul and unless the process of tagging is automated it would take a while for people to tag the 760 articles, but I'd be happy to help if this were done both with helping engineer this and the tagging if necessary and have had a few thoughts on the subject as my A2 coursework was based on this - around OSI as well :P *rant*
Thanks for the feedback CodeX. We have been discussing tagging and some of its implications. There's still no decision yet on whether or not this will be implemented, but there will be some details to iron out. We'll let you know once we've come up with an answer. If there are others in support of tagging, speak up and be counted.
