Yahoo groups != newsgroups

(as any real uk.d-i-yer will say most emphatically!)

Maybe we should change the article title, as really its for discussion forums of all kinds. Not sure what title to suggest though. NT 10:34, 13 June 2007 (BST)

Couldn't we just merge the links into the main page, which already has links to other resources (or into more specialised articles, as appropriate)? --John Stumbles 22:31, 13 June 2007 (BST)


I'm sure we could. But if as a reader I were looking at the contents trying to find places for discussion and more advice, I wouldnt think to click on 'Main Page', but I would think to click on 'newsgroups' 'discussion sites' or something like that. If I think of a better title I'll come back to it.

I'm also aware that in time the list of sites will grow, and be quite enough for an article on its own. Hopefully. NT 23:01, 13 June 2007 (BST)
