====2024-02 thoughts about dead wiki / archiving here==== | |||
Having run into a bunch of wiki that are no longer with us this year. I started to think that maybe we need a different namespace for wiki that have moved on. So that when people come here and bounce around, they find wiki that are at minimum, online. Also, removing them from all categories would seem prudent. Thoughts? [[MarkDilley]] | |||
:The defunct or closed or dead status should make it clear, but we could have some color if the infobox has that kind of status and maybe a headline that says so. As for categories, we definitely could have categories about [topic] assume that they are living and any of them that are dead can be a subclass of [topic].

::Yes, I remember advocating for keeping dead and defunct wiki in the main namespace. Now I am wondering about that decision again, checking out what folks think and appreciate hearing it. Best, [[MarkDilley]] | |||

Many [[:Category:Wiki engine|wiki engines]] use or place their source code for download away from their own website to an external repository (such as [[GitHub]] or [[SourceForge]]). The [[Template:Wiki engine|wiki engine infobox template]] previously never had an option to clearly indicate this; however, it now does! A new field has been created in said infobox – <code>|source code URL= </code>, so please update wiki engine articles and / or categories accordingly.
