:::::::::Perhaps you are right. Oooooor perhaps Bob is referring to '''''my''''' question of, 'Are you in favor of turning the "Similar Wikis" section into a "Comparison with other wikis" section, in other words?' Since we are here in what may appear to be a of sub-argument of that argument, let's just say that he is. I fail to see the need for further evaluation of Liberapedia, because we have already established its notability as a similar wiki due to the obvious [http://liberapedia.wikia.com/wiki/Roger_Schlafly schlafervative] connections.

:::::::::This is really, more of a general question of whether readers would gain more from a mere list of "similar wikis" or the full blown comparison. A table perhaps! A table would be marvelous, wouldn't it? But why limit ourselves to discussing this one instance, when we could be writing an article format guide! Tables for everyone! Tables everywhere! Massive tables, full of interesting tid bits! Subtables within tables for those nuanced subtleties! [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 17:29, 2 September 2009 (EDT)

:::::::::Alrighty so that is decided, so now we just have to figure out what the rows and columns should have in them<del>. schlafervatism obviously, that's a no brainier. uuhh.</del> I know there are many excellent "headings" for these it is just a matter of conjuring them up.

:::::::::::Yes it is okay. Doors are open all around you... I've got it! <del>The rows shall be the wikis!</del> Half way there! Now all we need are the columns. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 18:09, 2 September 2009 (EDT)
::::::::::::I'm leaning more toward making the columns the wikis, now. Because I think there are likely to be fewer wikis then there are comparison factors and we want to reduce the horizontal scrolling as much as possible. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 23:24, 3 September 2009 (EDT)

:::::::::Couldn't we make a template or something that is the chart of a bunch of similar wikis, and then put that on all of their pages? [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 18:48, 2 September 2009 (EDT)

::::::::::No it would be easier to copy the table, then we could make it more customized. That is, if we have consensus on this proposal. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 06:09, 3 September 2009 (EDT)
