Wiki-Noding is an important project that will ultimately allow users to discover entire wiki worlds by traversing the node network. See WikiNodes for more info.
current state of project Wiki-Noding
We can create boilerplate WikiNodes for the various engines, then visit each wiki from that engine and drop in the boilerplate on a page called WikiNode.
The second step, which we do not do, is to add a link from WikiIndex to the WikiNode in question. We don't do it because the boilerplate isn't useful as a WikiNode yet, until that community takes on the editing of the page. They can come to WikiIndex and link from their page to their own WikiNode once they've taken over it's care.
boilerplates
- WikiProject:Wiki-Noding/UseMod boilerplate - Just have T, U, V and X to do yet in Category:UseModWiki TedErnst | talk 16:43, 16 August 2006 (EDT)
- add them for your favorite engines here!
wiki-nodes
older stuff that needs to be refactored or cleaned up or something
- Add Wiki Node link to the article page (if any), if not, create one on the destination site first. This step generally needs to be done for a group of related wikis before the next step below.
- There is a proposal in Proposals that is for creating future links instead of creating a WikiNode.
- Add Wiki Nodes of neighbors at destination site. This can be done more easily after step one, where WikiNodes are present in the group of wikis that are in view.
- Here are a couple of MediaWiki examples (would be good to add examples from each engine):
- http://icannwiki.org/WikiNode
- http://www.chicagowikiarts.org/wiki/index.php?title=WikiNode (here's a minimal one without any neighbors yet, or even knowing anything about the wiki itself using WikiProject:Wiki-Noding/MediaWiki template & WikiProject:Wiki-Noding/UseMod template)
- http://www.acadine.org/w/WikiNode (note that this doesn't link back to wikiindex, so needs to be edited)
- Here is an example that is less clear:
- Toothy Cat
- Amongst several issues, this brings up how to link back to WikiIndex. If we include a pointer back to our Wiki-Node, does that mean that we have to include them in our neighbor listing? Or should we just link back to the project? If we don't know of other wikis that would be included on the wiki node, should we hold off on creating one for a wiki? or not? Best, MarkDilley | talk
