Thanks Heather. I was hoping you would leave feedback. I think you've got some very good points about how to improve Talk.

Not about Talk, but: After completing the tutorial, it seems like there's no way to log in if you already have an account. The only option is to create a new account. I had to dig around until I found a log in link in the discussion section. I almost gave up entirely.

We have a section for Bug reports - could you possibly repost this there so it gets picked up by the right people please?

Suggestion -
For Orders Page Type suggest including Place/Location as the unit I am reviewing has a lot of places listed.
I have been adding Places to locations in the mean time.
See the pages I have reviewed for - 6 DIVISION: 16 INFANTRY BRIGADE: 1 BATTALION BUFFS (EAST KENT REGIMENT). (31 DEC 1917 - 30 MAY 1919)Posted

There's a good reason for this. We want to tag what actually happened not what the Orders said was supposed to happen. "No plan survives contact with the enemy"! If and when the Orders are carried out the Unit will note the locations they actually went to in their diary. In the meantime many of the places in the diary won't be related to them at all but will refer to other units. Hence why there is no Place tag in the Orders page.
Can you please use the forum section about standard tags for this kind of question next time? http://talk.operationwardiary.org/#/boards/BWD000000h

Suggestion:
Same names keep cropping up - a drop down list of previous recent entries would speed that up enormously.Posted

Good idea but we don't have any developer working on the project at the moment to do this. And please can people post these suggestions in the correct areas of the forum - this one is about how to improve the structure of the forum itself.
I've now started a new thread for any suggestions for new tags http://talk.operationwardiary.org/#/boards/BWD000000h/discussions/DWD0000g2u
