Well, there should be an "about" page [1] since that issue has been sitting for quite a while. That should be the "philosophy" if there is to be a page for it. The more link also needs to go [2] since it is a UX nightmare. There is no reason to have multiple links go to the same area in the same nav menu with different names. Should it ever have a different name in any navigation item? I also don't think we need a link to the stewards in the main navigation. There is a block of text lower down in the page going to the stewards page and then the footer logos on every page.
