Consistency[edit]

thought this should be added. Probably needs some editing, but the concept is relevant. Thoughts?

Consistency of elements allows the reader/user to relate the element(s) in their rightful hierarchy to each other throughout the experience/interaction within the different mediums of the object.

Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement unless it can be shown that the academic sites were published before the WP article. --Just plain Bill (talk) 14:26, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you show to the contrary? Dawkin Verbier (talk) 06:18, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re-splitting[edit]

I split the article into Design elements and Design principles before both pages were flagged as copyvio and deleted. I now see that the copyvio investigation has concluded, and that the external pages had copied this page, rather than the other way round. I am wondering now how and whether it would be appropriate to re-split the article? Dawkin Verbier (talk) 04:31, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to split articles you'd need to formally make a proposal. See Talk:Democratic_Labor_Party_(historical)#Split:_To_Democratic_Labour_Party_(Australia,_1980) as an example. TarnishedPath^talk 10:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
