Proposal 05-Mar-2006: RealNames
First, let me say that I appreciate anyone and everyone working on this WikiIndex project. I do want to propose that we make it a site standard to Use Real Names or work anonymously. Best, MarkDilley
- Could you say more about this, Mark? I ask because I'm totally supportive of UseRealNames for meatball or any other project where "community" is more of a focus than producing information for the public. For any wiki, I feel a lot more comfortable interacting with a person with a real name than with a pseudonym, though if I knew who that person was in real life, I might feel differently. I also feel more comfortable working with a logged in person, no matter what name, than I do working with an IP address. Reputation is tied to that login name, not just to the real person behind it. I am really looking forward to more conversation on this.
