LadyGeek, I’m considering this edit has wrapped up. I believe there’s good help for the adjustments which have made it onto the draft web page:
…
FiveK talked about he can be out of contact for per week, however he is already opined on all of the adjustments to this point, and I’ve taken that suggestions into consideration (even when I have never accomplished precisely what he would like in each case). I’m considering we should always publish, and we will at all times cope with minor adjustments later. What do you assume?

The one adjustments* that had “consensus” help have been those on the left facet of this comparability: Prioritizing investments: Difference between revisions – Bogleheads.

Sorry, people, however fyre4ce’s transfer right here was accomplished in unhealthy religion, and studying from this post including the quoted posts can be useful going ahead.

*I do not thoughts Ted Swippet’s newest two adjustments.

There was no unhealthy religion coming from me on this course of. My solely aim was to enhance the web page, and I’ve been clear about what adjustments I proposed, and why, at each step. I want I did not have to spend time doing this, however evidently there are some things that should be cleared up.

Initially, I proposed a top-to-bottom scrub of the web page, leaving the general construction intact however with content material and magnificence adjustments all through. A model of that web page is here, in my person space, if anybody’s . Suggestions on that rewrite was not good. In response to that suggestions, practically all adjustments have been reverted again to the dwell web page, with just a few exceptions I listing beneath. If anybody doubts this, go examine the precise texts of the 2 pages. The comparability you hyperlink here makes it appear like there are extra adjustments than there truly have been due to the formatting, however the precise textual content within the listing is just about equivalent. The suggestions you reference here was in response to the unique draft, not later variations with practically all adjustments reversed.

I saved the draft web page up to date alongside the best way to assist the editors, which was why I objected once you made few updates to the dwell web page by yourself. For one, it muddied the waters, and there was later confusion amongst editors as to which model they need to be . Some confusion nonetheless persists. It is also not right to say all of the adjustments you made to the dwell web page had consensus. Two examples: First, there was a consensus that if 529’s have been added to the listing, it must be an specific step to assist novice readers. Your model didn’t have an specific step, however somewhat an orphaned part on the backside that readers may not see. Second, there was a consensus that including “Begin an” to the textual content within the graphic of step one helped keep away from harmful misunderstandings. This was lacking too.

For the report, right here is the listing of the adjustments that made it into the ultimate draft. Content material:

1. Added “Begin an” to the primary merchandise within the graphic
2. Added a bit for ESPP’s beneath the listing in a brand new “Much less widespread accounts” part, and added a sentence with a hyperlink in step #2.
3. Additionally added 457’s and NQDC’s to Much less widespread accounts, and added a brief paragraph in step #5 about them with hyperlinks to the part beneath.
4. Added a step #7 for 529 faculty financial savings, and the graphic was correspondingly up to date

That is it. That is the listing of favor adjustments:

1. The three-level format was moved to a two-level format (for causes described here, together with readability on cellular units), however grayscale color-coding was reverted
2. Up to date rates of interest to match current
3. A number of exterior hyperlinks have been added

I do know you disliked a few of these, notably content material change #1. Most editors dislike a minimum of some content material on the present web page, together with me. However I felt snug publishing as a result of no extra adjustments had been proposed by the point you left. I had already prolonged the overview by ~1 week to work with retiredjg on the 457 part, however that received settled earlier than you left. My time is just not limitless, it felt like we reached a pure stopping level, and a moderator agreed. I actually do not know what you’d have had me do otherwise.
