== Versioning == | |||
See the idea of [[Versioning]] as a way to deal with the phenomenon of competition and ego for our own ideas on the very first page. By creating "unlimited" variants, people may more freely explore and express their ideas to express and thoughts. We could use self organized controls, such as [[#redirect]] and [[ExpiresOn]] categories to deal with clutter. I really don't think we are going to be overwhelmed with traffic to be able to at least do this for a few months. What would the [[WikiWay]] do? [[User:MarkDilley|MarkDilley]] | |||
So I have made a couple versions as expamles: | |||
* [[MarkDilley:VersionTwo]] to store my front page. I just need to go clean off the wiki people tag. | |||
* [[MarkDilley:WikiIndex:Community portal]] | |||
* [[MarkDilley:WikiIndex]] - I think I will use a : inbetween like [[MarkDilley:WikiIndex]] as a page name for my ideas on the page WikiIndex. | |||
* [[MarkDilley:MissionStatement]] | |||
==discussion== | |||
I was nervous about putting this out here, so I asked [[JohnAbbe]] about it and then he missed my irc chat and I could wait to just do it. So he just came back to my question: | |||
* well, it turned out that it was more of an idea than a question. The question is how do we support others ideas and creativity on a wiki? | |||
: '''my answer is less techie - by listening, and reflecting what we're getting of what someone says/writes''' | |||
Thanks John! and [[IRC]]! | |||

The other nice thing about the '''":"''' in the middle fo the wiki words is that when I type in MarkDilley and hit enter a pages comes up with everything of mine. sweeet!! :-) | |||
Mark, | |||
I'm not getting you. Are you saying that one way to introduce changes that I'm not sure are non-controversial is to make a "temp" page for the purpose, get comments, and then copy/paste that temp page to the real location? | |||
Or am I totally missing it? | |||

: Nope! You got it. But I think the beauty of it is that people can cull what they like from the page and just go with it. So I, or anyone, can say '''Here is a idea I had''' - what do folks think about it. So then it would take another person to go ahead and just do it or comment that it was a good idea. Or to critique, or as you would say, use the [[Two feet rule]] and just ignore it. I think it would work. Do you? Best, [[User:MarkDilley|MarkDilley]] | |||
Yes, I do think it will work. It's a bit less efficient than just editing the page directly, though it has the huge advantage of being less likely of stepping on people, so it's easier for people to work together (emotionally easier, technically it's a bit harder because of having to look multiple places, although...) | |||
...A suggestion would be to simply use the talk page of the page in question! [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 15:19, 24 Jan 2006 (EST) | |||
