Agreed.
Didn't it used to say something like "The next Bring-a-box meeting will be on
<date> at <venue link>"? That's better than the strange list format it has
evolved into.
There's lots of tidying we could do. We don't have a lot of prose explaining
HantsLUG, which I see as a failing. The first two or three pages you visit will
all be just lists of links. It would come across better if we can explain and
guide users rather than just present an unordered pile of information. In any
case, this could be done after we upgrade - Moin allows renaming of pages, and
offers organisational tools, such as
http://hantslug-wiki.devel.mauveinternet.co.uk/OrphanedPages
so getting the wiki into shape would be easier after migrating.
It also occurred to me to add something similar to Wikipedia's
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Out_of_date
to many of the LinuxHints pages to warn that they may well be outdated and
should be checked.
