- Description
- There are many fields which are barely ever used.
- Some fields duplicate functionality and it's not clear what we should use.
- In some cases, comments are put in text areas and it's hard to follow. These should be in the threaded comments instead.
New contributors are lost. Old contributors are lost or dismayed.Some duplicate fields are due to a previous effort to improve the workflow. Sadly, that work was never finished and we were left with duplicate fields. In a more recent period, multiple fields were added instead of just having one field with a bunch of check boxes.
This all needs to be cleaned up.
Oh yeah, and don't experiment on live data! nextdev.tiki.org is a good place to do this.
- Make stats on field usage.
- Any field which is used less than say 5% of the time should be considered for removal
- Fields like following can instead just be a category of an existing field
