Hello,
"Programming:Ada" (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:Ada) does pretty
good on "Book of the
Month" (Wikibooks:Book_of_the_month/September_2005_voting).
However, it has been observed that the book follows an old and obsolete
naming convention - and that's no good.
We would like to invite comp.lang.ada to participate in the search for a new
Book name in the Contributors lounge
(http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:Ada:Contributors_lounge).
With kind Regards
Martin

In the beginning bookshelves where hardcoded in a syntax similar to
wikipedia namespaces:
Bookshelve:Book:Chapter
So books had names like:
Programming:Ada
Programming:C++
Programming:C
etc. pp.
However this was not flexible enough - one book could not be on more the one
bookshelves - hirachies of bookshelves are nor possible - hence it rule was
dropped and special bookshelves where created:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Science_bookshelf
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Computer_science_bookshelf
Note that "Wikibooks:" is a propper namespace (not a look alike) and no
books - only bookshelves exists there.
Under the new rule "Programming" is now one book and "Programming:C" is a
chapter ;-) inside the "Programming" book.
Also it is now suggested to use the "/" instead of ":" to seperate chapters.
Anyway voting is over and the new name is "Ada Programming".
All pages have allready been moved:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ada_Programming
It might be noted that you can move a 100+ pages in an hour if have a
browser with "middle click" and "tabbed browsing" ;-).
