This draft includes a lot of the feedback given by staff in the thread.

I have not included the "Getting Started" page or a redone Tale Hub pages yet because I think those need further staff conversations do decide on their content and I feel doing them at the same time as the general navigation update would make things more complicated than they need to be. Breaking down big tasks into small chunks, right?


This is not final vote for all talk about navigation, this is a vote that we make the changes we can do now before the ones which we need to talk about more. All of the pages are deliberately made somewhat utilitarian and give the basic functionality we need so that if we decide we want more change they're not so elaborate that setting them up makes our life down the road more difficult.

The three things up for vote are

**In Favor of changes to the top and side bars.**

||~ Yes ||~ No ||
|| X || X ||

**The links in the side/top bar, but without existing pages being altered**

//This would move discussion back to further discussion of how best to edit those pages, due to the fact that a large part of the proposal would have to be changed to accommodate not consolidating pages.//

[[code]]

||~ Yes ||~ No ||
|| X || X ||
[[/code]]

**The links in the side/top bar without the new pages**

//This would move discussion back to further discussion of how best to edit those pages, due to the fact that a large part of the proposal would have to be changed to accommodate not consolidating pages.//

If you have some reservations for changes you would still like to be made, please vote in favor of what we have here if you don't find any part of it particularly offensive. The conversation is not over, we're giving ourselves a better starting point for bigger conversations.
