Proposal: This Way Up

Reached quorum 7 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 02 Apr 2023 10:42:49 UTC

After the first sentence of “The Building”, add:-

The start of this list is its base, and the end of this list is its top.

Replace “ordered list of items that defaults to” with:-

ordered list of items (known as Blocks) that defaults to

Replace “item” with “Block” and “rightmost” with “topmost” throughout the steps of the Build action.

Update the layout of the Construction Site page to display the Building vertically.

It’s possible to mark up a vertical stack in a way that displays okay in the sidebar, as demonstrated at https://wiki.blognomic.com/index.php?title=Sandbox

Should the reference of “Building” here be “Building Contents”? It feels like “base of the Building” could be confusing when “the Building” is technically the entire set of variables Building Number, Building Stability, and Building Contents.

I’m not sure there’s anything else it could be confused with, but we could just lose “of the Building”. Proposal edited.
