I am really enjoying working through the problem here. I could write a dozen articles for my question. It is a good question, but it is extensible. It addresses a big area.

Do you recommend that I:

  • make a series of related questions of increasing sophistication but very narrow scope?
  • make my own blog and stop placing this string of content on CV?
  • Make an single vast answer with multiple parts?

Maybe I should turn it into "wiki".

  • What is the ideal content for "community wiki"?
  • If I convert it to wiki, can I make multiple, separated, answers to the same question?

D - none of the above: Can you suggest something?

  • $\begingroup$ Are you asking about adding answers to an existing thread or about asking [a] new question[s]? This seems ambiguous / both-ish. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I'm asking what to do next. The first part of the answer is complete, but the next part is just as long. This would be pretty big. The first part is ~5 pages. The next part would likely be as long. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I just looked at the link. I think I see now. You asked a question & proffered an answer, both of which are long. But now you want to add more information & you're wondering if you should add more to your existing answer, or put together a series of Qs & As to present the material, since it will end up being so much. Is that the gist of it? $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ @gung - very much correct. I think that I am working toward excessive and want to avoid that. I will take direction and want to work within the guidelines of this community. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ It's hard to comment on questions you might write. Both question and answer were up-voted, so precedent is encouraging. Only writing similar questions (best done one at a time) will gauge the strength of interest. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @NickCox - I just don't want to get hated on for writing 100 pages of content. I also don't want to get hated on for writing 10 articles in the same theme but with specific differences that are 5 pages long each. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Same advice: write one at a time. Or should you be writing journal papers about this work? $\endgroup$
