[[Sean]], you say ''this template is specifically for software - 'RecentChanges' isn't normal terminology for software - changelog or roadmap is'' - first, we aren't talking about normal terminology for software, we are talking about wiki software. Secondly, I just sampled ten in the category and most of them were '''RecentChanges''' - one was a timeline, one was a text file and 3 were unavailable. I think for consistency, in this wiki about wiki, wiki people and wiki ideas ... we stick with wiki terminology. ~~ [[MarkDilley]] | [[Sean]], you say ''this template is specifically for software - 'RecentChanges' isn't normal terminology for software - changelog or roadmap is'' - first, we aren't talking about normal terminology for software, we are talking about wiki software.

::OK, I only suggested 'changes' purely as a way to differentiate from RecentChanges on wikis. The hidden text in the boilerplate indicates that we can use changelog, roadmap and the likes. I know you are very keen on preserving the history of wikis (and I've no intention of trying to change the main wiki template - that is one battle I'd loose at the first draw!). I just think we need to show difference between wiki sites - ie, [[Template:Wiki]], and wiki software, ie, [[Template:Wiki | ::OK, I only suggested 'changes' purely as a way to differentiate from RecentChanges on wikis.

My other reason for changing this template is to anticpate using a new set of structured data on the Wiki engine software. Finally, Mark, your sampling is a little premature - this particular change has only been up-and-running for a day or two! :ppp Best :))) [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 08:20, 1 May 2013 (PDT) | ||
: [[YiFei]], thanks for the thoughts. I am fine with change, but when I sample, [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Wiki_Engine&limit=137 not prematurely as you suggest], many of the pages were RecentChanges... how can we accommodate that as well as changelog / others? Can we use a variable somehow? I am loving the idea of introducing new things here!! LOVE IT! :-) Best, [[MarkDilley]] | : [[YiFei]], thanks for the thoughts.
