Near Click

A NearLink in the context of WardsWiki means a WikiPage that is easily accessible by a person with a specific context. [Note: your grammar is unclear here, obscuring the meaning of this sentence. Please RefactorMe] See also TheFirstFiveClicks and SixDegreesOfSeparationTheory.

For example, a lot of new users do not know the benefits of adding a CategoryHomePage to their WikiHomePage. And they would probably get curious about the addition of that category by a WikiGnome. So in that sense CategoryHomePage is a NearClick for a WikiReader making their first contributions.

Note: NearClick is not NearLink, the latter being a term coined at MeatBall to refer to links to different sites.

Thanks Earle for correction. I do not have a good rephrase of the first sentence. I think I meant something like the intention of the page is relevant to "a role" - a person with a NewUser hat. Too complicated for me now and I am very hungry and tired today. BTW I hope ProceedWithFear is more readable now, takes a while to improve my pages, but I do not forget them -- dl DeleteWhenRead
