WikiPattern: ThreadMode pages

ThreadMode pages record discussions between page's contributors.

Each author adds his or her comments (signed) to the bottom of a page.

Useful for a long sequence of viewpoints.

Cautions:

• Can be much less efficient than forums or electronic mail.

• Becomes difficult to read, if not well managed it often leads to an antipattern called ThreadMess.

• Need some way to notify people when new items have been added.
