- ↑ Moderator: Chris! (how is this as a means of capturing moderators?
- ↑ Should moderators define categories in their areas?
- ↑ Should we add "snowmelt" to this? Or separate? Change to precipitation?
- ↑ This seems somehow below purification and sanitation.
- ↑ Isn't sanitation dealing with wastewater? Purification is making water drinkable? Whatever the name, wouldn't desalination fit here too?
- ↑ Are wells really for storage, or supply? If storage, is it still called a "well"?
- ↑ How is a Cistern different from a storage tank? Isn't it just a kind of storage tank?
- ↑ Does Macrobiotics belong in nutrition/diet?
- ↑ Change to "Health and Safety"?
- ↑ I'm concerned about the value and liability of "treatment" articles. I would suggest a conservative policy in the treatment area, or huge disclaimers. Both, really.
- I'm not sure how conservative you are thinking, but I'd like to major on the prominent disclaimer and restrict editing as little as possible. --Singkong2005 · talk 03:56, 15 January 2007 (PST)
- ↑ What to include? Cysts, bacteria, virus, but not broken bones, sprains, cuts, concussions, malnutrition, exposure, heat stroke, dehydration?
- Some are obviously development-related, like malaria... but I wouldn't be inclined to categorize diseases by pathogen type (Cysts, Bacterias, Viruses) - not at this stage, anyway. We're focusing on the technology and practice of treatment on prevention, not on the biology of the pathogen.

- ↑ Prevention and treatment are called out separately. What else is there? Description, diagnosis, prevalence, perhaps?
- ↑ I dropped specific diseases under "diseases, and implicitly raised "prevention and treatement" within each category to be included with categories as, say, Cysts.
- ↑ Bacteria is already plural right? And yet, my gut says adding the "s" is okay
- ↑ Merged "improved pit latrines" into
- ↑ Although I had original suggested Banking as a category, I wonder if finance or even trade or commerce is a better meta term. For example, there are a variety of manufacturing articles that would seem to be supportive of sustainable development. Where do they belong? Another discussion might be licensing, permits, cap-and-trade, etc. Not all are applicable to 3rd world
- ↑ Do we have techniques and structures reversed?
- ↑ I now prefer ICT as a name, as longs as it's abbreviated. I've seen it everywhere...
- ↑ Is networking a better generic term, that would encompass Internet?
- ↑ While wikis are not necessarily internet-based, could they fit there (or even easier, in Networking) for our purposes?
- ↑ Use the broader term, most are hydrogen anyway
- ↑ Cooking? Include solar ovens?
- ↑ Even if, technically, there are thermal and nonthermal version of solar hotwater, Chris and I agree that "solar thermal" is overly pedantic and not natural. In any case, choose the larger label that can include both thermal and non-thermal solar hotwater
- ↑ This can also be done in the lower part of walls, right?
- ↑ seems related to Land Use...Community? Transportation with land use in community?
- ↑ What the hell?
