Site sustainability tips

• Categories
  • Overall, categories are old technology and should not proliferate. Only the most general, important and unavoidable categories should exist.
  • Instead of categories, use the keywords parameters of Template:Page data
  • If you want to create a category to track some work in progress, consider creating a simple list of links in your user page.
  • Categories should contain no text, only pages and Template:Category data.
  • Flat is better than nested: avoid sub-sub-categories as the plague
  • Only create categories when there're several (say, 10 or more) pages for it. Don't create categories before needing them.
• Actively avoid complexity and strive towards simplicity
  • Use meta-templates to reduce templates
  • Avoid nested templates in content pages
  • Ideally, template parameters should be simple key-value pairs: all markup and complexities should go within the template itself
  • Keep a close correlation between template parameters and semantic properties, for example derivative-of and Property:Derivative of
  • Avoid custom namespaces (given the extremely diverse nature of pages in the main namespace of Appropedia, there should be no need for custom namespaces)
  • Merge related pages to have fewer, better ones
• Prefer well-supported extensions, especially Wikimedia-supported ones
• Keep MediaWiki updated and never modify the source code
• Convention over configuration and sensible defaults on templates
• Use modern web standards and structured data for rich results
