ImportantInformationFirst
MeatballWiki | RecentChanges | Random Page | Indices | CategoriesImportantInformationFirst is a fundamental principle of communication. We find it in many places outside and inside of wiki. It's so trivial that we hardly think about it.
Examples outside wiki
- Newspapers put the most interesting story on their front page.
- Newspaper stories lead with the most pertinent information.
- Book authors attract the attention of their readers with their first sentence.
Examples inside wiki
- The wiki starts with the FrontPage.
- RecentChanges starts with the newest entry (typically).
- DocumentMode comes before ThreadMode.
- pages often start with a PageIntroduction.
