Here there be glossary entries.
- Charles - there are a few FAQ entries that deal with terminology - they might be good to link to from glossary entries. --Dustin
- Found 'em, thanks. I'll add those in as I go along. I found, however, if I just add the glossary category to the page, the glossary page sorts the entries to "FAQ: snark" instead of to "snark". So I'll make separate pages for the glossary entry and FAQ entry, with cross references. Sigh.
- I like what you've done with Bump, actually -- if the FAQ clears up some misunderstanding, and the glossary entry just defines the term, then the two work well together. In other cases, you could make the FAQ entry a redirect to the glossary entry. You can also affect the sort order of the category page by using

- I also added Category:Glossary and Template:Glossary Entry if you want to take a look. --Dustin
- Very nice, thanks. That saves me having to experiment with how to do that.
- Since this page is an orphan, feel free to use it to bring suggested glossary entries to my attention.
- I've been adding them as I think of them --Dustin
- Great. -- C^2
