Is there a general guideline for structure of articles here?
Please join the discussion at [[Talk:Meta:US_Structure]]. [[User:The Earl|The Earl]] 17:24, 7 March 2008 (MST)
For instance, I would like to start building out New York. New York exists at Portal:New_York, from Portal:United_States. I added the counties at Portal:New_York/New_York (for NY County).
 
It seems to me that there are a LOT of articles being build off of the root, and this may lead to a lot of moved articles as things more ahead.

MediaWiki software does not have a folder structure. The main structure is that of [[Help:Namespaces|namespaces]]. The great majority of articles on this site reside in the main namespace which is essentially the root. Pages (articles) are only moved if they need to be renamed or moved to another namepspace.

Portals are unique in their structure. They use sub-pages to populate each box. There is some basic information at [[FamilySearchWiki:Portal Instructions]]. Please feel free to ask any questions about the portal stuff on the portal instruction discussion page! [[User:Molliewog|Molliewog]] 15:17, 6 March 2008 (MST)
