SOPA strike

I agree to participate with WikiIndex.org:

• You?
• Sounds like a worthy protest. I think WikiIndex should join the strike. --EarthFurst 09:53, 16 January 2012 (PST)

Definition

The concept on this project page in the namespace WikiIndex is not developed according to the high exposure of the page. --Manorainjan (talk) 18:20, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

• Who will post?
• What shall be posted?
• For whom is it to read?
• How shall it be formatted?
• How often shall news come?
• Is it latest news on top?
• News only or discussion?

Definition I think this is deliberate: the page will get used how the community decides. If it ends up being a lot of vanity posts or incessant griping, then others will tire of it or remove it. Koavf (talk) 19:39, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

my definition

• Latest news on top
• Format: == Date - Headline == \n News text \n simple linked signature Manorainjan
  • If any comments, than to the talk page of publishing user.
    • Publishing user will edit his news if necessary
• Questions are no news.
• Post one news, delete one old news.

freenode IRC replacement suggestions

Comments for discussing 2022-03 – bye-bye freenode IRC, replacement suggestions, thanks. --Sean, aka Hoof Hearted • _{Admin / 'Crat} • talk2HH 23:55, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

• Wikimedia Foundation moved to Matrix. Koavf (talk) 00:06, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
• I know of both Matrix and Discord but have not been active on either one. Happy this initiative is happening. Best, MarkDilley
• If WMF is happy with Matrix, it will be great for WikiIndex. Koavf, would you like to set up Matrix for WikiIndex please? --Sean, aka Hoof Hearted • _{Admin / 'Crat} • talk2HH 18:17, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
• It's much easier for me to join with matrix. If people using IRC are inclined they can setup bridges or personal puppets. Remember to properly backup your secret codes if you open an account ;) NotGerman (talk) 15:58, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
