Here's the current state of project Wiki-Noding:
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.


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 also come to WikiIndex and link from their page to their own WikiNode.

* 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.

*** 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]] | <small>[[User talk:MarkDilley|talk]]</small>
