CZ Talk:Proposals/Subgroups in addition to Workgroups?

Are subgroup Editors' names and Authors's names automatically found and listed?

Chris, I have not yet digested all of the proposal, but I want to congratulate you on having finally made the proposal ... as you know, I have been "pushing" for this for almost a year. So please accept my thanks.

I do have one question. As I recall, and I may be wrong ... I think that I manually entered my name in Chemical Engineering subgroup's Category:Chemical Engineering Editors and I manually added the 4 authors' names into Category:Chemical Engineering Authors. Will that now be done automatically? Will the names be picked up somehow from users' pages?

Right now, users' pages only list the main workgroups for which each user wants to be an author or editor. Is it going to be up to each user to seek out what subgroups for which he/she wants to be listed as an author or editor at the bottom of his/her user page so that info can be automatically picked up?

The section that deals with this issue is How_to_invite_your_colleagues. I think you might misremember adding the names manually to the category page (or I misunderstand you). I believe what you did was add the subgroup category to their user pages. In short, your last paragraph is exactly what I had envisaged. Maybe you could rephrase the section in the proposal to make more sense? Chris Day 16:17, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
