I notice the planner world has some pages where they discuss the
various ways people use planner. I think it would be cool for us to
collectively post some org-mode usage strategies, perhaps on an
emacswiki page.
Or, people could prepare a small .org file and send it to me, and I
could paste it into a page of my site. it could be a collaboratively
written "Org-Mode Strategy and Tactics"
If anyone enjoys this, I'll get started by writing my own entry.

I think this is a great idea. My use of org-mode is improving, but I'm
not yet 100% comfortable with it. I recently refactored how I have been
using org-mode; and I'm not there yet.
There's no question that org-mode is a fantastic tool for organising
yourself. Its power comes from it not imposing a structure or workflow
on you. Unfortunately; this means that it takes commitment and time
before you become proficient. When you have a small system going in
org-mode you can get away with mistakes, unfortunately as you add more
information it gets harder if the structures you've defined don't scale.
The various org-mode guides out there are a great start, but I like you
think we need something more. I'd also be interested in seeing the
pro's and con's to the various org-mode tools, e.g. KEYWORDS, TAGS,
OUTLINES, and patterns suited to their usage etc...

Maybe a big table with various org functionalities and annotations
regarding them (pros/cons/best context of use/etc.) would be nice.

Good idea! Doing this (at least in french) has been waiting on my
todo-org-list for ages :)

Yes. If you could start an org-mode wiki page, please do. Over time,
I've written some org-related scripts and elisp code, which I'd like
to share.
Thanks,
Piotr
