Some notes. a) the chat link currently goes to the communication channels#chat section. This should be reviewed and merged with IRC if appropriate; or people directed to the latter. b) the above link shows nav at a sectional level. I find this works for long detailed pages; we are reaching that level of complexity. but it is a first; please comment. c) I like the borderless imagmap for navigation. perhaps we can come up with guidelines for same in the style guide. --Sj talk to me 23:16, 24 December 2007 (EST)

While I laud what I think you are trying to achieve here, could you please try to be more respectful of the visual design we have tried to carry throughout the project? It is not just a matter of personal taste or opinion: disruptions in the visual flow are just that: disruptive. --Walter 08:18, 25 December 2007 (EST)
Please elaborate: is it disruptive when it is at the top of a page, or just at a sectional level? I'm not clear enough on how that visual design applies to intra-page navigation. Do we want to avoid wiki pages that are more than a page long? Can this design can live peacefully with multiple views of the content in question? For instance : we could have a (noinclude) navigation template that only shows up in a simple one-screen overview of IRC; but does not show up on a longer page on communication channels. --Sj leave me a message 16:46, 25 December 2007 (EST)
