I do content inventories much the same way as Dante does, it sounds like. The homepage is 0.0, the top-level category pages are 1.0, 2.0, and so on, and pages below those are numbered as children. I've gone as deep as five or six levels using this system, and it works fine, even if it leads to some cumbersome numbers.
And on the same principle as the one Dante describes, where the root of the site is a global 0, I number the utility navigation elements (Contact Us, Sitemap, and the like) as 0.x. This applies even if there are child pages underneath--so for example, if Contact Us is page 0.2, department-specific contact pages underneath it would be 0.2.1, 0.2.2, etc. I've tried out different approaches to numbering in content inventories, and this one is the one that makes the most sense to others who have to use the inventory. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
