Hello
Some weeks ago there was a discussion of how to improve threading within the Wikipedia discussion pages. A possible solution would be http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LiquidThreads, however that most likely will not come any time soon.
Would the following be easy to implement?
1 When adding a new contribution the user is forced to use a header, that is the construct == == is automatically inserted. Right now I have to press the button *+*. But couldn't that functionality be on the button *edit*?
2 then when the user wants to reply to a contribution by using the `local' *edit* button, automatically a subheader would be inserted, in this case === ===, then the reply to that would get a ==== ==== header and so on and so on.
More sophisticated implementation
- when doing 1, a yes-no questions pops up: do you want to reply or to compose a entry?
- when doing 2 automatically and RE: is added behind the ===.
If such features would be implemented the tableofcontents would server somehow as an overview of the threads.
