Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Current "Sectors" vocabulary is too long, to make it more usable we are going to group Sectors into up to 10 Categories. This issue is for refining the list of terms.
Proposed categories and sectors:
Art | Business | Government & Non-profit | Society | Personal | Education & Science | Sport | Technology |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Animation Architecture Cultural Heritage Cultural institutions Dance Fine arts Literature Music Museums Movies Photography |
Beauty & Fashion Banking and Financial Clothing Corporate Consulting Design Entertainment E-commerce Enterprise Journalism Food & beverage Furniture Health & Fitness Insurance Labor unions Legal Industry Manufacturing and Energy Marketing Media Newspapers Publishing Real Estate Retail & distribution Small business Startups Television Tourism & Travel Web development |
Charity Government Non-profit organizations Public Sector Urban planning |
Celebrities Community Family & Parenting Non-Governmental Organizations Politics Relationships Religion & Spirituality Social Advocacy Social Networking Youth |
Personal site Blog Portfolio |
Pre-school School Colleges & Universities Online learning Higher education Environmental |
Athletics Aquatic Baseball Biking Football Golf Hockey Martial arts Olympics & Competitions Rugby Tennis Winter sports |
Consumer electronics Hardware & Software Internet Mobile Open Source Telecommunications Wireless |
We'll also add "Other" category for case studies that do not fit into any.

gdemetIs this a place we could include year and "hall of fame" status, or should these be for market sectors only?
Comment #2
tvn CreditAttribution: tvn commentedI think this should be for market sectors only. We are going to add Status field to case studies with values "Community" and "Featured", we could add "Hall of fame" there and then create separate view for this type of case studies. And year also could be separate field.

tvn CreditAttribution: tvn commentedI started to group Sectors by Categories at the issue summary. Suggestions are welcome.
Comment #4
lisarex CreditAttribution: lisarex commented+1 to breaking them down; I'd still like to review them a bit more
FYI he Marketplace (Preview) uses the Sectors so it needs to work for both sections (reorganizing should be fine, but not sure if introducing parent/child will break the Marketplace nav...ask drumm?)

Comment #5
drummGo ahead and try some term reorganization on a dev site and see if it breaks marketplace. I wouldn't be surprised if it broke, but not sure how without looking.
Comment #6
tvn CreditAttribution: tvn commentedPostponing this one. Reorganizing does break Marketplace navigation. We'll implement initial redesign with simple 1-level navigation and then watch while getting more case studies - which terms and their groupings makes more sense.

westend atelier CreditAttribution: westend atelier commentedSuggestions for taxonomy:
(1) Small, Medium, Large - that way a potential client can survey sites relative to the size of their own organisation and needs
(2) Three meta-categories
or else
Comment #8
westend atelier CreditAttribution: westend atelier commentedSome thoughts:
I feel the approach to taxonomy may be using an "old paradigm". Top down and hierarchical.
I'm thinking about Data Visualisation and Mandlebrot.
Is there a way to create a taxonomy that is organic, flexible, can "shape shift", accommodate new categories that are potentially leading edge but not commonly used at this time.
I'm uploading some image I found on fractals.
Some questions:
- What other ways are there to organize a taxonomy ?
- I can think of one --- the WordPress tag cloud.
- Are there other examples we can evaluate for the needs of this project ?
- Am I correct to think we may be attempting a taxonomy using an old paradigm ?

Comment #10
westend atelier CreditAttribution: westend atelier commentedSmall, medium, large --- simplistic terms. What I mean, perhaps, is the ability to select websites measured (quantified) according to certain critiera.
For example:
- cost of the website (eg, $5,000 ? $50,000 ? $500,000)
- person-hours it took to design and build the website (40 hrs ? 240 hrs ? = to one full-time job for one year ?)
- the size of the client organisation served by a website (eg. small independent business, regional chain, national chain, globalized operation ?)

apadernoThe taxonomies used for case studies are now defined in code.
