Anyone disagree/agree with this? Examples of how it could look as sub-sections of the index section, or as sub-sections of another section:  Forrester: |

Would those forums include the entire subjects of Genetics, Biological Anthropology and Pictures by region? That is:
General Genetics, Bioanthropology, Picture forum
- Personal Genetics
Region 1
Region 2
Region 3
Region 4
Guess Race/Ethnicity/Nationality
Classification Requests

That's what I had trouble figuring out when I made the examples.
I got the idea when I saw the numerous news forums, so I think the best way would be if they were viewable from the index site, like on the lower examples (Asia, Africa).
So the idea was that they should focus on all aspects of these regions, genetic, physical, so on, whereas the genetics, physical anthopology, so on forums were like on Dodona (general, that is).

Well, Asia, if we go by geographical regions, but Forrester and Yankel don't like it.

Well, they haven't been made yet, people will have to vote yes if they want something like that, and it doesn't have to be divided by region, it could be Caucasoid, Mongoloid, so on instead. Just some kind of division, so you can find what you're looking for, and have info on specific populations in one place.

The news section looks rediculous. What's the point in dividing all the continents/regions? You don't see this is your newspaper, tv news, etc, either.

I think these subdivisions lead to discontinuities. On a board named Pax Humana the idea is to allow the free flow of interests and diversity within the same forum. I get the idea of highlighting discussions but that's what a thread designation is supposed to do. I think the idea of news separated by geographic region should be given a shot since it works for the bbc news.bbc.co.uk/ Either that, or perhaps these subheadings should be for general storage purposes (links, etc.) until a reason for them arises. I have a billion links that I could dump right now. |

Well, then vote, so far only me and one other person have voted, if the forum is supposed to be democratic, people will have to express their opinions.
