Wiki Mess

Stumbling over Refactor Towards The Center Of The Page in Random Pages I got the idea of formulating a typologie of kinds of Wiki Mess.

Wiki Mess is the generic term for disorder in a wiki.

Wiki Chaos - total disorder of all wiki

Refactor Towards The Center Of The Page - about handling pages grows old and large and unwieldy because being commented on on top and bottom.

Surface Refactoring - about handling pages with multiple blocks of content probably each in Thread Mode or even Thread Mess

Thread Mess - runaway Thread Mode with disconnected subthreads running in all directions

Interleaved Parallel Thread Mode - special case of ditto I guess

Dangerously complex, but no mess is Nested Thread Mode.
