Hierarchy and Naming
Ok, the hierarchy is good, however the naming convention is foolish. Since the only hierarchy is based on how categories link to each other let's make all salient points in the hierarchy below it's own category and make the less prominent its own page. Yes/No?
I'm new at this and just want the best layout. I think I was wrong in my first design, I think began to realize it when I was typing the same thing over and over: in CS whenver you're doing that, you're doing something wrong. So, following others' suggestions, keep the page names short. I'll try to clean up the CmdScrip and API stuff tonight. I think the CmdScript stuff and API stuff should all be on page as Warren has them in the documentation. Maybe we need a chatroom and a time to meet so we can hash this out w/folks. Ideas, comments?

Added Lotsa Commands
Took a little while a added a bunch of commands. Need more.
Organizing PyMol Commands
New Simpler Rules
Our naming idea was stupid, too. All commands are easily found under PyMol Commands. We have something like 60 commands or so already documented! All we require is that if you make a PyMol command page that you
- try to keep it simple like the ones we have up so far
- link it to the main PyMol Commands category by adding the text
[[Category:Commands|command_name_here]]
Obviously replacing command_name_here with your command name.
- Make the see also's links as well. It's real simple. Just wrap the command in
[[Cmd command_name]]
and that's it. So, "center" becomes,
[[Cmd center]]
.
Examples
See center

User Comments
Should content from the User's and Reference manual be incorporated into this site? Then in the content pages, one could reference a section of Walter's manuals. --Saper 22:54, 16 Feb 2005 (CST)
Saper, I had considered that. I was going to strip out all the commands from PyMol and make a "commands" page where people could flush in some content. Maybe we'd be better off starting with page-by-page inserting PyMol commands into the wiki. (?)

Nucleic Acids
From Luca Jovine: I apologize for being late, but... how about a section about nucleic acids? As in any other related program, they always end up being the poor siblings of proteins (I can't believe PyMOL's cartoon command still does not recognise the most common 5' and 3' nucleotides!), and I'm pretty sure people who work with them would benefit from such a section in the Wiki. Thanks,
Where should we put the Nucleic Acids Stuff?
For NA's - at the moment, the most appropriate location seems to be "Modeling and Editing". But perhaps we should add a special section devoted to types of molecules? ie/small molecules (like fatty acids, ligands, etc), nucleic acids, proteins, nucleic-acid/protein complexes, large macromolecules (ie/ribosome). I'm sure people have tips on how best to represent and work with each. Scale always seems to be an important factor when thinking of display details. --TheDude
Expanded Schema
Proposal to incorporate more than just a manual into this site:

- Settings
- Miscellaneous
- Command Line
- Meta Manual
- Selections

- Palettes
- Writing/Running Scripts
- Customizing PyMOL
- Discussions
- News
- Development
- Questions
- Special Topics
- Movies and Animation
- biochemical calculations
- NMR
- Crystallography
- DNA
- Stereo 3D
