Categories discussion for the front page

I suggest the following master categories for the front page. Subcategories can be discussed here:

Foobar2000	subcategories here
Technical	subcategories here
Software	subcategories here
Hardware	subcategories here
Guides	subcategories here
Codecs	subcategories here

Hmmm, problem is, Codecs for instance may not have subcategories. And the left column, should it link to the Category description page (e.g. Category:Codec) or just a heading text? --pepoluan 15:40, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

Page Discussion

I discovered our wiki's categories facility. What about simplifying this main page to point to the Categories page instead?

This is a brilliant idea actually ;-D. I think instead of call them tools just generally stick with software --HotshotGG 5:34, 2 September 2006 (CDT)

Excellent layout. I would get rid of the sections as well and leave only the table linking to the categories. Much cleaner and readable.--Beto 18:22, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Before we continue, I think "DSP" is not precise... some of the articles are not limited to digital signals. I suggest using "Signal Processing" instead... but anyways, what's wrong with "Technical Stuff"? --pepoluan 07:54, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

I think technical or something like it would be better. We already have a technical category...--Beto 08:14, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

I concur. The currently existing "DSP" category (i.e. Category:DSP) is reserved for fubie's DSP plugins.--pepoluan 08:21, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

Suggestions

To put in a suggestion, please use the format specified. Thank you.

Also could there be a note and a link on the main page that says that there is a more complete list of topics on the index page

maybe saying something like that this page is a brief summary of topics on H.A.K. a more complete list can be found here.

And maybe some fun positive words to encourage people to participate in the wiki

and to make a note that when people submit "knowledge" to the wiki, that is safe from vandalisim. e.g. people won't loose there work by some idiot.
