I had lunch with Gordon yesterday, and we were talking about OG (no surprise). One comment he made was that for non-technical people using the guide as a reference, there are a large number of placeholder pages, which is irritating as in these cases there is precious little information on the page. I remember some discussion on one of the lists, of tagging placeholder nodes with a category. Also, I have had discussion on IRC and at london.pm social meets about deleting nodes. An approach to this is to put them in "category deleted". In both cases, we are talking about some implied filtering for the search and links. They would both be selectable from user preferences: "show deleted pages", "show placeholder pages". Regarding links, this is a small change from how links are rendered at present, to a tri-state: 1. Node exists, creates href link 2. Node does not exist, show hyperlinked '?' linked to edit page 3. Node exists but is suppressed (deleted / placeholder), don't link Thoughts please.
