At the moment, the title for the main landing page, which is visible in the browser tab + window title (and probably in search results as well) is âOpenStreetMap Community - OpenStreetMap Communityâ. This seems a little redundant.
Looking at what other communities are doing, it seems like the second part is meant to be a brief description of the site. For example, http://meta.discourse.org/ has âDiscourse Meta - The Official Support Forum for Discourseâ.
So Iâm suggesting to either drop the second part, or replace it with something more descriptive such as âOfficial discussion forum for OSMâ.
Perhaps âFor OpenStreetMap discussionsâ - I think we should avoid the word âforumâ (at least for now) if both the existing forum and help sites are moving here in case it causes any confusion.
I recently created a wiki userbox for this discussion forum. I didnât know what to call the site. I finally called it âOpenStreetMap Community forumâ, taking the name that appears in the site title and adding âforumâ to it.
I tend to agree, but it does touch a broader question: What do we call this site? At the moment, the âOpenStreetMap community forumâ name seems to be used in a few places. (Iâve also used âcommunity forumâ as the wiki page title.)
Once there is a bit of a consensus, it would probably be worth standardizing the name elsewhere. For example, the Community Index currently links this site by the name of the software, i.e. âDiscourseâ, which strikes me as pretty bad for discoverability.
I would suggest naming it âOpenStreetMap forumâ, once the migration of the old forum gets completed. âCommunityâ would reflect in a more generic place, like a portal, and not specifically a forum. Personally, I call it âforumâ or ânew forumâ to distinguish it from the FluxBB.
