:Agreed. There are a lot of data that we can and should integrate. E.g. There is no reason for [[Template:Size]] to be a separate template. Additionally, we need to obscure fields which have no content, so it doesn't look like the wiki is somehow deficient nor that we are somehow ignorant of what is there (although both of those things ''could'' be true, of course).

How about an ontolgy of this metadata - expressed in RDF it could be harvested from the wikis so people don't always have to update the pages at WikiIndex?

In [[MediaWiki]] it could be expored [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/query.php?what=info this way] but also [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDFa RDFa] is possible. -- [[User:Nichtich|Nichtich]] 09:31, 22 August 2006 (EDT)
 
== link to about instead of RC? ==
 
...wouldn't a link to an about page and an author page be ''WAY'' more handier than a recent changes? --[[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] 18:41, 26 August 2006 (EDT)
 
actually no, a link to RecentChanges shows someone immediately what is happening at the wiki. [[MarkDilley]]
 
== boilerplate ==
Hi Smiddle.  Great idea to have the boilerplate info closer at hand when looking at this template. I linked to our actual boilerplate as an alternative to what you did so that way things will always be up to date (no duplication that can become unsynchronized). [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 18:08, 28 August 2006 (EDT)
: Seems I manged to figure out how to include the boilerplate here afterall. [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 11:24, 2 October 2006 (EDT)
 
== if template ==
I notice since the '''if''' template was added, there are extra blank lines between the link to the site, the link to RC and the link to the WikiNode.  Can we take those blanklines out? [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 11:24, 2 October 2006 (EDT)
 
Also, now that I think about this more, the entry for "No RecentChanges" or "No WikiNode" can serve as an encouragement for readers of this site to become editors, or editors at those other wikis to create wikinodes.  I think that's important.  Maybe if a site actually doesn't have a recentchanges page or has choosen to opt-out of the WikiNodes network explicitly (could be explained in comments on their page here), then eliminating those entries in their structured data here makes sense.  Otherwise, I think it's still good to show "No WikiNode" and "No RecentChanges."

:I edited it so that it says "No WikiNode/RecentChanges" instead of just blank. &ndash; [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Search/Smiddle|S]]&middot;[[Special:Allpages/Smiddle|A]]</small> 11:34, 2 October 2006 (EDT)
 
Great - thanks! [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 11:49, 2 October 2006 (EDT)
 
Now it says [No WikiNode], with squared parentheses, which looks weird. That's kinda why I created the template, to make it with round parentheses. Just an opinion. &ndash; [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Search/Smiddle|S]]&middot;[[Special:Allpages/Smiddle|A]]</small> 09:46, 3 October 2006 (EDT)
 
== Author and about pages? ==
 
I know not all wikis have namespaces, but I'm sure most would have articles about the wiki and their author. Agree? &ndash; [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Search/Smiddle|S]]&middot;[[Special:Allpages/Smiddle|A]]</small> 14:58, 16 October 2006 (EDT)
:I agree, it could be the same kind of thing as RecentChanges and WikiNode, where it is optional [[User:Minun|Minun]] 15:13, 16 October 2006 (EDT)
::Hope the admins agree, too. &ndash; [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]] / <small>[[User talk:Smiddle|T]]&middot;[[Special:Contributions/Smiddle|C]]&middot;[[Special:Search/Smiddle|S]]&middot;[[Special:Allpages/Smiddle|A]]</small> 15:40, 16 October 2006 (EDT)

Smiddle, can you tell me what [http://wikiindex.com/index.php?title=Template%3AWiki&diff=32303&oldid=32019 this edit] does?  Thanks! [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 17:56, 16 October 2006 (EDT)

Wiki farm section?[edit]

Perhaps we should put a "Wiki farm" section in here, too. Thoughts? --Queen Princess Vizier Countess Jello 10:24, 8 March 2017 (PST)

Agreed. There are a lot of data that we can and should integrate. E.g. There is no reason for Template:Size to be a separate template. Additionally, we need to obscure fields which have no content, so it doesn't look like the wiki is somehow deficient nor that we are somehow ignorant of what is there (although both of those things could be true, of course).

I could make the changes if you remove the protection again. --Queen Princess Vizier Countess Jello 12:04, 9 March 2017 (PST)
