Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Building on [this answer](https://proposals.codidact.com/posts/292481/292482#answer-292482), maybe we add a category -- maybe called "Workshop" -- with Wiki posts, where the object is to organize and bring together all the aspects of a larger project like, in this case, designing a fire-breathing dragon.  The post could contain placeholders for aspects not yet worked out, and links to the relevant questions that exist.  If you (generic "you") notice something needs to be addressed but you don't want to ask the question yourself -- maybe you're a passing chemist who doesn't much care about dragons, but you're contributing your knowledge that the stability of the chemicals involved is an issue -- you can edit it into the post.  People can tell at a glance how fully baked the project is, and anyone interested can pull off outstanding parts to ask in Q&A.

There will probably be lots of discussions.  Fortunately, threaded comments with thread names make that not a complete disaster like it would be on some other platforms.

In other words, use this wiki category to organize, and keep it separate from the Q&A.
