Hi all,

I was thinking about the debate guide projcect. It is similar to the 
Outline project, but it has some additional structure.

In The Oultine projects some chunks of texts are inserted as nodes and 
they are organized according to topics and according to the source.


In the debate projects there are also chunk of texts, whivch may be 
organized also according to topics and according to source. Further 
there is an argumental structure also.

There are:

1)  Question 

2) thesis nodes.

3) Argument nodes.

(i) For each question there are at least 2 theses, whihc have a debate. 
There may be more.

(ii) For each thesis there are arguments. An argument is usually also a 
thesis, which can be debated.

(iii) For each thesis there may be text-chunks, which formulate that 
argument. There may be more, since several philosopher could write 
the same argument in his/her way repeatedly. An argument may also 
be factual, in this case the text chunk may be a reference, which 
describes the fact.

(iv) An argument may belong to more theses. For example one single 
fact may support more theses.


How do you find this structure? I was also thinking of another 
structure, where arguments and counter arguments. Are grouped to 
one question, but I found that not so well structured.
