A question that came up during a meeting was if it would be better to create a page for a device (e.g. Apple Watch) and add information on the differences of different models/series on that page (e.g. in a table), or to create one page for each version of a device (e.g. Apple Watch Series 7, Apple Watch SE...). My intuitive answer would be to create one page per device, including information on different models on that page. Having only one page for a device could give a better overview, and especially newer users would probably rather look for information on "apple watch" in general, than to look for a specific model. Also, so far all tool pages that have been created are on a device, not a specific model (e.g. https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/Oura_Ring, https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/One_Button_Tracker), so this might be the more natural way to work. - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 10:19, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

My table of food tracking apps was not made by template but should be in tool category.

I've added the template to the Diet tracking tools! - Gedankenstuecke (talk) 09:32, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Pages for each model/series of a device?

A question that came up during a meeting was if it would be better to create a page for a device (e.g. Apple Watch) and add information on the differences of different models/series on that page (e.g. in a table), or to create one page for each version of a device (e.g. Apple Watch Series 7, Apple Watch SE...). My intuitive answer would be to create one page per device, including information on different models on that page. Having only one page for a device could give a better overview, and especially newer users would probably rather look for information on "apple watch" in general, than to look for a specific model. Also, so far all tool pages that have been created are on a device, not a specific model (e.g. https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/Oura_Ring, https://wiki.openhumans.org/wiki/One_Button_Tracker), so this might be the more natural way to work. - Katoss (talk) 10:19, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Adding a section on usefulness of tools in different contexts?

A section that could be useful to understand the real-world applicability of a tool could be to add a section "This tool has been successfully used in [projects], and not in [other projects], linking internally or externally. - Katoss (talk) 10:24, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
