    I rearranged higher category theory - contents. It seemed wrong to have everything as a special case of n-categories/(n,r)-categories except for \infty-categories/\omega-categories. But it seemed right to list the latter up front, as the all-subsuming concept. So I basically reversed the order. (I also added a few entries.)

    Thanks, yes, that's better.

    By the way, I am fond of this list of contents. It may be just a small contribution, but just this linked list in itself is something quite useful that has no counterpart in the literature.

    I think if eventually we can expand a bit more on some of the definitions, such as Batanin's Verity's and how they relate, this wiil be something quite valuable.

    And as soon as somebody tweaks the nLab CSS a bit so that the layout looks better, it may even be enjoyable for many people.

    Anyone feels challened to CSS-implement my request to have a vertical blue bar running on the left margin of each entry? Or can anyone point me to a document from which I could in principle learn how to implement that myself?

    I think it is a good idea to issue challenges like this. I still haven't seen any statistics (should be easy to gather from the logs), but I'm sure many more people read the n-Cafe and n-Forum than comment on either one. Some of these lurkers are probably undergraduate students (or even high school students!) who can program CSS in their sleep. Maybe you should dedicate a post on the n-Cafe calling out to any lurkers who can help imporve the look of n-Lab via CSS. You never know...

    I prefer content over statistics.

    I don't see the conflict.
