Gateway: Sandbox
- Category:Sandbox makes no sense and should not be created.
- The Sandbox page is of limited use, because it is easily overwritten "common ground".
- UserPages should be used for article development because they "eliminate" such risk.
To Do
- Eliminate multiple stove-piped categories by using gateway categories at top
- Use better names for
- Use natural names/descriptions instead of artificial ones
- Category:Collaboration - replace with Category:Geographic
- Category:Province Data - replace with Category:Canada
- Consider replacing Category:Alinco Radios with Category:Alinco Receivers
- Could also use Category:Alinco Transceivers if needed later
- Should/Can we rename "MOTOTRBO" categories to be "DMR" categories?
- Should/Can we rename "NXDN NEXEDGE" categories to be "NXDN" categories or to be "NXDN NEXEDGE ICAS" categories?
- Put "Theme Categories" under Gateway Special Topics.
