Hmm, starting to think we might want to have two seperate pages - one with the structure we want, and one where we fill in what we have... Seanheron 00:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Thought - as a complete sitemap should it also include the rest of the top-bar links ?

Link to "Spring-cleaning the Wiki" project page - for structured discussion

Note also the old categories would roughly map to this structure, with Content going to "Games", Development keeping it's name, and Playing -> "Help". Maps kindof drop out of that structure, but weren't much present previously either. Lua Widgets and AIs I guess stay in "Development" where they've been so far (it can be argued whether that's the right place or not).
