The LyX wiki is great! But quite a bit of overlap (as one would expect with

How about merging these two sections:

http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Complaints
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/FeaturePoll

I'm not sure merging is a good solution as they have different purposes (in my eyes, your mileage may vary). If you feel you have a good idea and/or get support from others, go ahead.

The page 'complaints' is there for people to vent their frustration etc.

The page 'feature poll' is there to let people raise their voice about what kind of features they would like to see in LyX in the future.


Note that both pages are only infrequently visited by developers', so it's mainly a formum for the users'. OTOH, being able to say that so and so many users would really like to see this feature carries more weight than a single user saying it.

Or perhaps any other suggestions for more cohrerent sturcture?

Perhaps a better description of the purpose of each page is needed?


Other than that, I guss the 'complaints' page ought to be edited to see if things are still relevant. That requires a knowlegdeable user or developer though. (My suggestion would be to move things that seem irrelevant or old to a new page called... http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Complaints-old )

PS. As for the general disparitiness of the wiki, it could certainly do with some editors that guide and decide on the overall structure.

PPS. I'm the guy administering the wiki, but I try not to control content.
