Talk:Blueskin Bay Community Directory

Page needs better arrangement

 * "Weddings" and "Celebrants — Marriages, Civil Unions, House Blessings, Naming Ceremonies" should not be separate sections even if temporarily close together
 * Buses, car-pooling, and trains are all solutions to the people-moving problem but are discussed in different sections a long way apart
 * Bland Park Trust is neither an event nor a facility
 * Blueskin Bay Cafe should be under "Business/retail"
 * Blueskin Bay Counselling should be under "Personal directory" and is maybe not suitable under "Trades/crafts"
 * "Things to See" and "Things to Do" overlap with each other and other sections
 * Alphabetical order is better than none, but no order may be better than partial-alphabetical, which can mislead readers into thinking the item they want is not there.

I wonder if the page is now too long and should have a number of subpages with short alphabetically-arranged links from here. For example, you could have a short section here called "Buses", one called "Car-pooling", one called "Trains", and one called "Transport and travel", each shorter than what is here now but linking to Blueskin Bay/Transport (which can have sections on them all) and to other appropriate pages such as Get the Train and W3 Rideshare.

Even if the headings were alphabetical, the page is uncomfortably long for a directory. For example, thirteen lines of "clean-up days" to scroll past to get to the next item!

Nothing wrong with short pages if there are good links to and from them. If Cargill Contracting has its own page, it can be suitably categorised and Blueskin Bay/Transport can have a link to it for the goods-moving aspect of transport.
