Book Review Forum

[zparticle]

Could we get a new main forum called  "Book Reviews". Each topic would pertain to a certain book, the topic title should be the book name. Everyone that has an opinion on a book can post in that books topic. That should keep the number of topics in the forum down.

I'd rather see a proper news page on JGO, with a list of articles and reviews on it, and links to discussions in the forums from there....

hint hint Chris...

We already have far too many main sections. There are only a few books around. An own section would be really overkill.

Good idea, however what does that have to do with book reviews?

[princec]

It means that Book Reviews go in their own place on the site, not in the forums as such. Along with other news and articles. Like a lot of other sites out there. It's a good, tried and tested format I think.

Okay I see, but given that your suggestion is probably not going to happen any time soon and adding a forum is trivial...

oh f*ck it I'll just keep using the off topic section even though it isn't.

/me wants a Wiki

[swpalmer]

Wikis are wierd.. I have quite figured out how they work.. but they seem cool  

[leknor]

My real point of a Wiki is it would allow us to just go ahread and create content about book reviews without involving the site operators. They are very non-linear and being a programmer I like linear things. (they are easier to debug) The JGO community is rather self contained and we don't seem to need much involvement from our sysadmins. A Wiki would futher remove that dependicy and make us more self contained.

i think a book review section would be a good idea.. for the JGO site.
