Those options are removed in wiki-organisation sites as they've been set by default (but there does seem to be some problem with notifications in the work wiki which I'll checking out soon) --nad 19:14, 23 June 2011 (PDT)

From old article

Some consulting firms specialize in the area of Best Practice. Often "Best Practice" consulting firms offer pre-made 'templates' to standardize business process documentation. A key strategic talent is required to provide good "Best Practice" consulting to organisations: the ability to balance the uniqueness of an organisation with practices it has in common with other organisations.

In many cases the cost of making modifications to a system or process which comes standard in a template or with a delivered computer application forces an organisation into using "Best Practice". Often it is to the benefit of the organisation. Sometimes a "Best Practice" will hurt an organisation. Good "Best Practice" consulting firms can assist organisations in making decisions appropriate for the organisation.

CM notes

This article does not follow the convention for classes, whereby it should describe the concepts and general structure of best practice articles. An example of this would be role, or workshop. The content needs to be moved out of individual articles covering role-specific best practices such as Wiki user best practices, Wiki sysop best practices, etc. These role-based articles are then accessible through the role-specific workshops and role portals. Apart from this, the content will also need to be merged with Organic Design Conventions.--Milan 12:58, 19 January 2009 (NZDT)
