Wiki source for PagePatterns
===== PagePatterns =====
We're not talking about WikiPatterns, a now-defunct site and book.
A rhetoric of wiki will develop page patterns that writers can use to articulate internal structural relationships that emerge from the conversational thread.
* ThereforBut? - claimed as the simplest and most dominant on c2 wiki
* ThereforButOneTheOtherHand?
* ThereforButOkSoHowAbout?
==== Use page patterns====
Start new page?
One refactoring strategy is to suggest an internal relational structure for the developing page, eg, separating and linking parts with therefore... and an optional but... (see Wiki:ThereforeBut, and Wiki:ThreadsConsideredDrivel for examples).
switch to Berthoff Mode
Ann Berthoff has confronted this problem in her discussion of sentence patterns in F/T/W. She presents sentence patterns as "ways out of chaos," much as I imagine page patterns can work. Some prototypical page patterns might look like
- a pattern for stating and considering dependencies: ItDependsOn?
- a pattern for stating if-then, with an option
- IfThenOtherwise? | IfThenElse?
- pattern for breaking an explanation into several parts
o IfThisAndThisAndThisThenThis?
* a pattern for articulating parallel points or reasons in a series
o ThisAndThisAndThisLeadToThis?
* ...
Like sentence patterns, these page patterns are not meant to be formulas but heuristics. Consequently, writers do not need a large set but could use a good collection. Many will arise from enactment.
There is a list of refactoring strategies at Wiki:RefactoringWikiPages to use as a starting point for more patterns.

PatternMode as an organizational strategy can become a generative act. It not only addresses reading and understanding, but makes explicit the (organically initiated and developed) structure that has arisen in the thread mode collaboration.
page layout
* Wiki:WikiPageLayout on WardsWiki? presents some general guidelines on how wiki pages are typically organized - a sort of wiki page style guide.
* There some discussion on patterns and pattern forms on Wiki:PatternForm and a list of page patterns on Wiki:WikiPageLayout. But these are not the patterns I'm thinking of.
* Nor am I thinking of modes, such as ThreadMode and DocumentMode (and others such as FAQMode?, DialogMode?, etc.
