WikiIndex:Proposals

Proposal: 2006-01-29: New categories production

• We make the actual new cateogies after x time or x wiki fall into that category, pre-launch. MarkDilley
  • Additional Categories. I found that if you add an additional category to a page (see CodeBook and AddYourOwn) you must also add the category command somewhere on the page so that it also categorized the article properly. I am concerned that this will be confusing to users, so for now, I am using this format to at least keep it all in one place: --Ray 17:04, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)
    • Ray, I know what you mean about the proper way to create new categories, but I'm not sure what you're saying about "this format." Can you clarify, please? TedErnst | talk 00:02, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

Proposal: 2006-02-13: Authentic language categories

• see Category:Spanish discussion for more info/example.

Proposal: 2006-02-13: Image links

moved from StartUp Issues TedErnst | talk 12:14, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

• Map the WikiLogo to the Wiki_url, so as to have the additional link to their front page. MarkDilley
  • Does anyone think it would be a) a good idea to map the logo image in the template to wiki_URL = and b) is it even possible to do such a crazy thing? :-) MarkDilley | talk
    • Have heard this is not with in the knowledge of us, if it is even possilbe.

Proposal: 2006-02-14: Structured data

• What would the definition be for StructuredData
  • I don't know what this is (and yes, I've read the page). TedErnst | talk 00:01, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

Trying to clarify that because this site uses structured data, some things are done a little differently than other wiki. (wikipedia, meatball, etc). I think Structured Data is new to the wiki family, it is to me, so being clear about it will help.

I still don't understand. How is this different from Meatball or Wikipedia? TedErnst | talk 00:11, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

I propose we drop the NC from the Creative Commons license. TedErnst | talk 15:48, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

Can we discuss, I'm not sure I understand the rationale for this --Raymond King | talk 18:38, 18 Feb 2006 (EST)

Proposal 2006-02-18 Work in Progress

Let's revist what we're doing in each pass and re-do this sheet. --Raymond King | talk 02:14, 19 Feb 2006 (EST)

Proposal 2006-02-18 Glossary

I propose we make a Glossary with all of the WikiIndex terms so people don't get mixed up with stuff like "Private" vs. "Personal", etc. --Raymond King | talk 02:18, 19 Feb 2006 (EST)

Proposal 2006-02-19 Good Examples

How about we make a page with "Good Examples" so that people get an idea of how to make a great article? --Raymond King | talk 12:44, 19 Feb 2006 (EST)
