GA on main page proposal
This is a draft page for fleshing out questions that need to be addressed before GA content can be added to the main page.


 * Q1. Should a new system be introduced to promote GA content and/or reward participating editors?
 * If Yes, go to question 2.
 * If No, end proposal.


 * Q2. Should GA content appear on the main page?
 * If Yes, go to Q3.
 * If No, go to Other methods to promote GA content.


 * Q3. Should the main page be expanded in size to allow the GA content to appear as a new section?
 * If Yes, go to Expanded main page.
 * If No, go to Q4.


 * Q4. What content should be removed / reduced on the main page to make space for the new GA content?
 * Agree options for reduction/removal. Go to Q5.


 * Q5. Should the new GA content be added to the main page as part of an existing system or a new system?
 * If existing system, go to Merge with existing system.
 * If new system, go to New system.

Other methods to promote GA content
Routed here from answering No at Q2. What other methods are there to promote GA content? Could have specific proposals to take to the community or have an open question without a vote to generate discussion.

Expanded main page
Routed here from answering Yes at Q3. What size would be the new section for GA content and where would it be placed? Loop back into Q5 above.

Merge into existing system
Routed here from answering existing system at Q5. Proposals should look at the practicalities of implementation. How much work is involved and what would be the impact on the existing process? Can the existing system cope with both the new type of work and the scale of new content?

New system
Routed here from answering new system at Q5. Proposals should look at the practicalities of implementation. Is it just a link to a list page of new GAs (easy to implement), a hook system like DYK, or a mini-article like FA?
