Scenario C: Splitting a long list

[edit]
An example for a list which is split in sections

Example scenario: Eloise wants to improve a list on Wikipedia which contains all episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation. With 178 Entries, the list is rather long. Because of this, it should be split into manageable chunks.

Example quote: Now everything is well ordered: No more looong scrolling of pages, no pages with just tiny fragments either.

Workflow we assume:

  1. Decide on a meaningful criterion for splitting the list
  2. Decide if you want to split the list on subpages or sections of the same page
  3. If you use Listeria, use its splitting options
  4. If you write the list(s) manually,you split them manually too.

Here, we have few information in the workflow. What we would be interested in would be in particular, if and how you use tools to split the list.

Suggestions

[edit]
  • In general, I prefer sortable tables. For Wikipedia article namespace, sectioned lists can be preferable. If SPARQL is used in Listeria, a new option allows to use almost any criterion to split lists.
