Discussion of issues

Contributors & roles

• Who is going to fill out the information?

15 April 2025 (discussion meeting)

• Monitoring and updating content is a heavy workload for one person.
• A shared model would reduce workload and bring diverse perspectives.
• A group of volunteers could help fill in the initial content across pages.
• Where to find volunteers?

Paul: "maybe I'll be the one doing 90% of the work putting things on."

Kelly: "If we recruited the people to initially put this together and had that be a really broad group because you don't have one person doing everything. I mean, there's so many pages. And we get volunteers"

Paul: "Do you know any volunteers who can do that?"

Kelly: "Oh, I feel like we could find people. I mean, I had chatted with Mary about this and she's... She'd do some. She would be happy to. I think that there's other people that would too. I just think if we can kind of get a good base."

Tessa: "Maybe we could have people who are responsible for certain pages or groups of people responsible for certain pages?"

Preventing commercial exploitation or other inappropriate uses of the site

15 April 2025 (discussion meeting)

• Many categories (e.g. gyms, financial services) will naturally involve businesses.
• Is it acceptable for the guide to include mostly commercial entities?
  • This raises questions of balance, fairness, and over-commercialization.
• Policies may be needed to define acceptable listing criteria.
• Clear editorial guidelines and monitoring tools could help maintain the integrity of the site.

Sensitive pages

15 April 2025 (discussion meeting)

Kelly: "I think it would be good to know if there's certain things that needed to be locked down. Like the doctors. Mental health."

Paul: "There's that big problem that anybody can put their details on a doctor's page and say they're a doctor."

28 April 2025

Paul set the Healthcare page and Mental health page to semi-protected, meaning only admins and registered users can edit them.

Paul made Tessa and Kelly admins.

Content standards & consistency

15 April 2025 (discussion meeting)

• Pages that aren't locked will require careful monitoring, as they may be prone to misuse or commercial overreach
• How can we maintain high-quality, accurate, and consistent information across all pages?
  • Possible solutions:
    • Create a contributor style guide.
    • Implement a review or moderation process.
    • Provide templates and formatting standards.
