Thank you David. 👍

"I suggest we hold off making changes until we have collected all the information. I know this slows things down, but I feel it is the best way to be thorough and reduce the chances of having to make changes in the future.

I for one think the hierarchy should have UserWarnings at the top and that antifeatures are a type of warning."

This issue has been discussed multiple times over the years without reaching a conclusion as far as I know; renaming the page is crucial. I suggest you address this with Craig during today's IRC meeting. We can later talk about how to organize the hierarchy. The page renaming can be executed promptly in my opinion, and we can always change it again in the future if needed.

Would that be acceptable?
