Even though I have previously started a topic on doing just what is proposed here, I am actually rather neutral on the subject of whether we should have a board for Lingua Latina. I think most of the regular visitors to this site probably do what I do, which is click on the link for new posts since last visit. So the odds of my seeing a question about LL are exactly equal whether it would be posted in a dedicated board or the Learning Latin board.
Now, here’s what I think would be a very good and useful thing for people studying any particular book that is discussed here frequently. A motivated person could go through previous posts and link to useful posts, sorted by chapter in a particular book. The archives of this forum are filled with wonderful and useful information, but they have grown so large that it is difficult to find what you need in them.
Anyone could do this, and it would take some time and searching, but it wouldn’t be onerous. It could look something like this (using Wheelock’s as an example):
Ch. 22:
Essay
Ch 23:
Participles
Laocoon
Ch 30:
Death of Socrates
Well, you get the idea. Think about how incredibly useful a list like this would be to someone working their way through a book. It could be kept as a “sticky” at the top of the list of topics so newcomers could find it easily.
Just a thought (I know, we don’t need any more ideas…),
