It is OpenEdit then. Don't you think? [[User:MarkDilley|MarkDilley]]

are there definitions for these? TedErnst 01:19, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)

I've just started adding definitions for them. I think definitions of categories can be very important, to improve useability of the site, but also to resolve any points of confusion, for the benefit of people categorising the pages.
I think we need to keep a lid on the number of these 'wiki edit modes', and be clear what the distinctions are. There's very little difference between Category:ReadOnly, Category:Private, Category:InvitationOnly, Category:RequestLogin. A little merging and deleting may be required, but certainly we need a description at the top of each category. -- Harry Wood 12:27, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)

What about when the front page is read only and the rest is open? TedErnst 02:03, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)

It is OpenEdit then. Don't you think? MarkDilley
Yep I'd say Category:OpenEdit, in fact I have now said so in the definition of that category! (can change if people disagree though) -- Harry Wood 12:27, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)
