{{proposal
|Brief descriptive title = Subgroups in addition to Workgroups?
|Summary of proposal =Subgroups can represent a subset of editors and authors from a workgroup with a niche interest, be a vehicle for collaboration between different workgroups, a navigation tool or all of these concepts. They will function in a similar manner to workgroups but be smaller and only semi-autonomous since they must be affiliated to one or more workgroups.

== Disambiguation mechanics ==
{{proposal
|Brief descriptive title = Disambiguation mechanics
|Summary of proposal = This proposal argues that all disambiguation pages should be at titles of the form "foo (disambiguation)", with a ''redirect'' at '''all''' basic names which are being disambiguated; this will allow us to easily find articles which have been linked (erroneously) to the wrong meaning of "{foo}".

==Should we allow article specific subpages?==
{{proposal
|Brief descriptive title = Should we allow article specific subpages?
|Summary of proposal =The proposal recommends that citizendium adds three new fields to the metadata template (tab1, tab2 and tab3) that can be used to specify a subpage that is not defined in the [[Template:Subpage list/doc|generic list of subpages]]. An example of this can be seen at [[Iron/Isotopes]]. The Isotopes subpage will only be used by a small fraction of clusters (typically elements). This information could live on the /Catlogs subpage but citizendium readers will find it far more intuitive if the tab actually says Isotopes rather than Catalogs.
