From ANU Food Co-op Wiki

Hi all.

I happened to Google "Canberra food coop" and your main page was the first one that came up. Now I am sure that for insiders in the food coop, it is all good and well, but for random Citizens like me, this site really lacks some essential details. Such as:

Where is the food coop? And not something like "Near the student union", but a real street address please. because I don't know ANU well, and would want to look that up in a map.

Second, what hours is it open?

What foods are sold?

How do I contact it?

Pretty much the sort of details that any business would have.

I apologise if those details are on the wiki already, if so, they should be on the main page. Also, I question as to if a wiki should be the front page of what is essentially a small business. Sure, I can see that it might have its place as a link from the main page, but allowing anyone to edit your main page is a bit naive.

The link to the "public site" links back to the main page. That link is redundant, and should be removed. Perhaps you people should adopt a policy of testing links before including them? Also the site seems to have been seldomly updated, with lots of details from 2008 in it.

I don't mean to be impolite, but this site comes across as though a bunch of rank amateurs is running it. I would strongly suggest that you GET RID of this difficult and user unfriendly wiki, and start with a conventional page that Joe Average can get the information they need.
