Talk:Documentation/Dashboard/Ideastorm

Radical suggestion: Treat the main page like a Talk page, with signed comments and colon-indentation syntax, as the best way to gather ideas and have small, focused discussions. Possibly even move all the content to this Talk page, leaving a note like,"We're trying to gather ideas, so the real work is on the Discussion page." --TJ 13:00, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

TJ, I don't like this idea, as discussions sometimes tend to block/destroy/hinder ideas. For me the collection phase for ideas should be most possible open, so that you can add new ideas, let you be inspired by other ideas, combine them and so on - but you should not discuss (or criticize or even valuate) them. You just should let you animate and let your fantasy dream around. Discussion should be opened only after collection is finished (at least the first iteration of it) -nino 22:20, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
