			Authors of written articles analyze the source material, organize and synthesize it for presentation so as to provide an immediate summary while simultaneously gives readers a taste of Prabhupada's mood and approach as well as a taste for further study of the source material. These are the most rhetorically developed, aesthetically pleasing and 'predigested' of the article options, suitable for the non-devotee public.

			==Creation and Development==
			*'''Single author'''
			**Individual projects or written articles in development stage (exclusive as desired by author)
			**Would apply mostly to written articles
			**Could be a team of authors, but participation outside of the team would be restricted
			*'''Collaborative development'''
			**Established to be open for ongoing development by anyone wishing to contribute
			**Still requires user account and editorial rights

			All material would be open for future contribution and editing. However, guidelines for contacting previous developers of written and compilation articles would need to be in place to facilitate collaboration (rather than chaos).

			==Audiences==
			*'''Public'''
			**Educational/encyclopedic articles (fully written)
			*'''Devotee'''
			**Information on seva, donations; 'internal preaching' - inspiration, mission statements, etc (?)
			**Certain types of content articles (depends on specific subject matter)
			*'''Vaniservants'''
			**Content development pages
			*'''Limited access?'''
			**Protecting a page while in initial development (e.g. single-author written articles)
			**'Internal' pages (Vaniservants only, etc)

			==Subject matter==
			(Mapping and classification for planning and development)

			'''<u>Broadest definition of areas to be covered</u>:'''

			;*Philosophy, Science and Religion
			;*Society and Culture
			;*Mission and Practice of Krishna Consciousness
			;*Places and Personalities
			;*Prabhupada
			;*Language, Analogies and Stories
			;*Literary Works
			;*Calendar Events
			;*Facts and Data
			;*Popular Topics

			These could be used as the most general level of tag for articles. Or they could serve as a category, equivalent to the umbrella categories in Vaniquotes, with the tagging function taking place at a lower level in the tree structure.

			<u>For the time being, please see the following</u>:
