Speedy Deletion

I am aware there is a Stagecraft article already, and I used it as a reference source when creating this article. This is a new article, and still requires fleshing out. My understanding, from visitng Wikipedia:WikiProject Outline of Knowledge and reading Wikipedia:Outlines was that this article is intended as a list, in conjunction with the subject article (Stagecraft) to "serve as tables of contents or site maps for their respective subjects." "An outline of knowledge is a hierarchical list of the subject "knowledge"." DJSparky ^huh? 17:38, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Quick explanation of Wikipedia outlines

"Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation. The Transhumanist 00:10, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
