== Main Page Structure Discussion ==
== Conservation status panel updates ==


=== Current Status Panel ===
The conservation status panel on the main page shows current documentation progress. As new strain profiles are added, these numbers update automatically. Discussion about improving this feature or adding additional metrics should go here.
The conservation status panel shows our progress documenting landrace varieties. As we add more strain profiles, these numbers will update automatically:


* **Documented strains**: Updated as new strain pages are created
== Featured content coordination ==
* **Field expedition reports**: Updated when expedition documentation is added
* **Conservation status tracking**: Visual representation of preservation urgency


Discussion: Should we add additional metrics like "Active contributors" or "Recent expeditions"?
We should establish a rotation system for the featured content section to highlight:
* Seasonal relevance (harvest season varieties, regional growing cycles)
* Recent expeditions and field research
* Conservation priorities and endangered varieties
* Regional focus areas


=== Featured Content Rotation ===
== Navigation and user experience ==
We should establish a system for rotating featured content to highlight:


* **Seasonal relevance** (e.g., harvest season strains during autumn)
General discussion about improving the main page layout, navigation structure, and user experience. Major changes should be discussed before implementation.
* **Regional focus** (rotating through Southeast Asia, South Asia, etc.)
* **Conservation urgency** (highlighting endangered varieties)
* **Recent expeditions** (showcasing latest field research)


=== Navigation Improvements ===
== Technical improvements ==
Current main sections work well, but we should consider:


* **Browse Strains** section needs the most attention - this is where users will spend most time
Discussion of technical enhancements to the main page, including mobile responsiveness, search functionality, and integration improvements.
* **Theory** section should link to practical growing applications
* **Current Research** needs regular updates with expedition reports


== Technical Improvements Needed ==
<!-- Please add new discussions below this line -->
 
=== Mobile Responsiveness ===
The current design is mobile-friendly, but we should test:
* Status bar readability on small screens
* KPI panel layout on phones
* Action button accessibility
 
=== Search Functionality ===
Users need to easily find:
* Specific strain names (including local names)
* Regional varieties
* Conservation status categories
* Traditional cultivation methods
 
== Content Coordination ==
 
=== Immediate Priorities ===
1. **Regional landing pages** - Each major region needs a comprehensive overview
2. **Strain profile templates** - Standardized format for documentation
3. **Conservation status criteria** - Clear definitions for status categories
4. **Contributor guidelines** - How community members can help
 
=== Style Guidelines ===
* Use scientific names when available
* Include local/traditional names
* Maintain neutral, educational tone
* Cite sources for all claims
* Respect traditional knowledge and communities
 
== Community Guidelines ==
 
=== Discussion Etiquette ===
* Keep discussions focused on improving the main page
* Use edit summaries when making changes
* Discuss major changes before implementing
* Respect different perspectives on organization and presentation
 
=== Content Standards ===
* Verify information with reliable sources
* Respect indigenous knowledge and intellectual property
* Focus on education and conservation
* Maintain scientific accuracy while honoring traditional wisdom
 
== Archive Policy ==
 
Discussions older than 6 months will be archived to keep this page manageable. Important ongoing discussions should be summarized and moved to relevant project pages.

Conservation status panel updates

The conservation status panel on the main page shows current documentation progress. As new strain profiles are added, these numbers update automatically. Discussion about improving this feature or adding additional metrics should go here.

We should establish a rotation system for the featured content section to highlight:

  • Seasonal relevance (harvest season varieties, regional growing cycles)
  • Recent expeditions and field research
  • Conservation priorities and endangered varieties
  • Regional focus areas

General discussion about improving the main page layout, navigation structure, and user experience. Major changes should be discussed before implementation.

Technical improvements

Discussion of technical enhancements to the main page, including mobile responsiveness, search functionality, and integration improvements.
