Talk:Technical Collaboration Guidance/Vision/W

Boats on rivers
This analogy is not about collaboration, but about gatekeeping: I can't get on a boat from a bridge, let alone change how the boat is designed or built or decorated. Also, bridges are not usually meant to regulate river circulation: what you describe is a lock, not a bridge. Nemo 20:00, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Silent majority
How does "silent majority" fit in the analogy? Is it a navigation term I missed? Nemo 20:02, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Serious matters
"Blocking a project is a serious matter". This sentence should be balanced by an earlier sentence acknowledging that starting a project is a much more serious matter. The first day is the most important day for a boat, while stopovers are routine. Nemo 20:06, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Project information
This is the most important section in my opinion, everything else is disputable. The basic information should be expanded, for instance most project ideas are doomed from the beginning because they lack a problem statement, goals and/or an overview of past discussions, ideas and approaches to the matter.
