I'd like this article changed, so that it focuses on the '''process''' of database refactoring, rather than emphasizng the term for the "smallest possible change" (see [[refactoring]]). It is bewildering to the beginner as to why anyone would want to make a single, small change ... unless we explain that the point is to make a series of such changes, resulting in overall simplification of a system. Or speeding it up, or something. |

I've introduced sections, and started in on them, for Examples of DB refactorings and the process of DB Refactorings. [[User:ScottWAmbler|ScottWAmbler]] ([[User talk:ScottWAmbler|talk]]) 15:45, 25 July 2019 (UTC) |

The process of database refactoring section needs to be fleshed out some more. Basically subsections for each of the considerations that I've listed need to be added. I hope to do so soon, although would welcome anyone jumping in and doing so themselves. [[User:ScottWAmbler|ScottWAmbler]] ([[User talk:ScottWAmbler|talk]]) 15:45, 25 July 2019 (UTC) |
