I’m glad you mentioned blogs. LiveJournal faced a similar issue, and
they decided to keep it together, as far as I can recall. They decided
to try to use expressions that are understandable for both sides — and
while this is easy on an interface, it’s by far not as obvious in the
FAQs, which are, just like Wikipedia articles, long and made out of
complete sentences.
