==RecentChanges vs Changes / Timeline / Roadmap==
==RecentChanges vs Changes / Timeline / Roadmap==
[[Sean]], you say ''this template is specifically for software - 'RecentChanges' isn't normal terminology for software - changelog or roadmap is'' - first, we aren't talking about normal terminology for software, we are talking about wiki software. Secondly, I just sampled ten in the category and most of them were '''RecentChanges''' - one was a timeline, one was a text file and 3 were unavailable.  I think for consistency, in this wiki about wiki, wiki people and wiki ideas ... we stick with wiki terminology.  ~~ [[MarkDilley]]

::OK, I only suggested 'changes' purely as a way to differentiate from RecentChanges on wikis.  The hidden text in the boilerplate indicates that we can use changelog, roadmap and the likes.  I know you are very keen on preserving the history of wikis (and I've no intention of trying to change the main wiki template - that is one battle I'd loose at the first draw!).  I just think we need to show difference between wiki sites - ie, [[Template:Wiki]], and wiki software, ie, [[Template:Wiki Engine]].  My other reason for changing this template is to anticpate using a new set of structured data on the Wiki Engine software.  Finally, Mark, your sampling is a little premature - this particular change has only been up-and-running for a day or two! :ppp  Best :)))  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 08:20, 1 May 2013 (PDT)

: [[YiFei]], thanks for the thoughts. I am fine with change, but when I sample, [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Wiki_Engine&limit=137 not prematurely as you suggest], many of the pages were RecentChanges... how can we accommodate that as well as changelog / others? Can we use a variable somehow?  I am loving the idea of introducing new things here!! LOVE IT! :-)  Best, [[MarkDilley]]
