:I have a question. Shouldn't there be a section in the forum where discussions about the wiki should happen? Discussing in talk pages like these isn't ideal, I think. For example, I have just noticed one thing, page names in this wiki are extremely long. I would suggest using shorter page names; for example [[IFC]], and not something like [[AEC_Industry_Foundation_Classes_(IFC)]], which is hard to type and to remember.[[User:Vocx|Vocx]] ([[User talk:Vocx|talk]]) 05:00, 25 August 2020 (UTC) | :I have a question.

- I have a question. Shouldn't there be a section in the forum where discussions about the wiki should happen? Discussing in talk pages like these isn't ideal, I think. For example, I have just noticed one thing, page names in this wiki are extremely long. I would suggest using shorter page names; for example IFC, and not something like AEC_Industry_Foundation_Classes_(IFC), which is hard to type and to remember.Vocx (talk) 05:00, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
