CZ:New Workgroup Requests

Comments

The following list started off as a breakdown of current Workgroups (as at 8th August '07). While maintaining the very top-level groups, I've incorporated some others from the CZ:New Workgroup Requests page, moved some around, added some others, suggested sub-workgroups, included examples of article titles that might fall within sub workgroups, and generally, meddled.

Some of the existing headings/groups seem somewhat arbitrary. Why is Economics in Social Sciences, for example, while the very closely related Business is in Applied Arts and Sciences? Literature is in Humanities, not Arts... surely a case could be made for either.

At least at first glance, obvious workgroups seem to be missing. Dog (along with all other animals) should surely be in a subgroup of Biology, rather than being in the first level underneath that heading? Wheat is also in Biology - and in Agriculture. Agriculture is appropriate, of course, but Biology? What about non-food/non-commercial plants, which presumably shouldn't be in an Agriculture group.

Anyway, here's what I'll be proposing for discussion... (work in progress)
