Talk:New Member Orientation

The garbage night instructions are also found here: Shop_Operations#Garbage_Night. I'm going to merge them at some point. Angineer (talk) 18:55, 24 October 2019 (PDT)

To extend my previous comment, I think this page is getting a little bloated, to the point of almost being a single-page equivalent of the rest of the wiki. If a single page format is best for us, that's fine, but having the same info in multiple places can hurt us for a few reasons:

• Things can get out of date more easily, as someone may update information in one spot but miss another spot
• The flip-side of the prior point: having 2 places to update is twice as much maintenance
• Multiple locations for information makes it harder to find; it also makes it more likely that people will be reading info that's out of date

Here are some examples that I think we could consolidate:

• Recycling info
  • New_Member_Orientation#Garbage_Night
  • Shop_Operations#Garbage_Night
  • Garbage/Recycling Disposal section on Rules_and_Regulations
• The link summary and the wiki home page
• Board contact info
  • Board#Contact_the_Board
  • New_Member_Orientation#Contacting_the_Board

What do other folks think?
