We used to do this a lot, but it adds to the waiting time for the requester and leads to a higher abandonment rate since they go and start the wiki elsewhere or just forget to come back and use their new wiki. In theory, it's still possible for users to do that research since anyone can add comments to the talk page of each request, but it does need to be done pretty soon after the request is made.

We're hoping to use it as a vehicle for surfacing the project generally, but also as a place for the community to discuss the project and web search in general. In fact, Jimmy has a post going live in about an hour about why Grub is so important to the future of the Internet. The blog does not aim to replacing the search-l mailing list, so feel free to participate in either or both place(s). There will be some redundancy, of course -- for example, I'm posting the weekly updates in both places. Also, while the blog necessarily is the "official" voice of Wikia, replete with the responsibilities and headaches thereto, the blog is not meant to be a walled garden. Everything is up for discussion, down to what license to make the content available under and the order of the sidebar. So please shoot over ideas, questions, concerns, etc. Dan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <4881620D.70400@telus.net> Just a quick pre-query, has wikia-l been slow during my absence? I lost my e-mail accounts for the past week (change of internet account, ended up deleting all our addresses), and so now that I have them back I experimented with using Gmane for reading the old messages and receiving new messages. Though, the messages archived in gmane don't look like there are many more than from when I had my address before. Well anyway, I see that wikia-l is on Gmane, would there be any objection to getting wikia-tech-l and wikia-bots-l into gmane? I'm considering setting up myself so that I read through gmane but write directly to the list. Gives me fault tolerance, reduces the space needed for my inbox, and lets me get messages without downloading them till I need them. -- ~Daniel Friesen(Dantman) of: -The Nadir-Point Group (http://nadir-point.com) --It's Wiki-Tools subgroup (http://wiki-tools.com) --Games-G.P.S.

As it is now, it links to a description page on Central ( www.wikia.com) and the first link on that page takes you to the in-depth statistics. As we've grown, the processing power needed to general those stats keeps growing (we inherited the stats script from MediaWiki) and currently it's taking about 7-10 days to do a complete statistics run. Within a few weeks, we'll be launching a new statistics page that is both more efficient in it's processing and cleans up some inconsistencies in the original MediaWiki stats script. As for wysiwyg editing, this has been the holy grail for a number of wikis. We started an effort around this last year with SocialText and underestimated the complexity of what was needed to support legacy wikitext. In fact, for a while Brion V. over at Wikimedia thought a wysiwyg editor might not be possible. Back in August at WikiMania in Taiwan, we saw that FCKeditor had been working on an extension that would work with MediaWiki (they've had one for a while but the difference is that this one supported native wikitext as opposed to html on the backend). Since then, one of our engineers in Poland has spent part of his time working with the FCKeditor guys on this particular extension (who also happen to be in Poland). This is not a small project and we've had some other priorities for the first part of this year, however in the last few weeks I've asked that our effort on this be stepped up again. We're well aware of the barrier to entry that exists... however we also have to provide for our core editors so that the new tool doesn't allow newbies to unknowingly mess up existing wikitext. With all that said, I hope to be able to launch a preliminary version in 6-8 weeks assuming that we're able to keep our focus on this in light of other priorities that always pop up. The introduction of this tool will most likely be on new wikis first so that we can gauge effect and see if it's worth expanding to other sites. As soon as we have an solid alpha version of this we'll announce public test sites so we can get feedback from everyone, too. Thanks, John Q.

Message-ID: Folks, I have a client who wishes to bring the Wiki world into a large Canadian enterprise. They seek the best of the Wiki Collaboration Systems specialists and contributors we can find. Ideally, this would be someone with non-traditional IT capabilities surrounding social networking & Web 2.0 experience, and ideally a background with Database creation, management and administration, as well as Enterprise Business Architecture or Service Oriented Architectures, and familiarity with media rich content & knowledge creation, sharing and management. This individual would likely be someone from this mailing list, and would likely also be a significant contributor to the Wiki content environment. If you have successfully built a significant operational Wiki environment for a corporate or government environment, my client would likely want to speak to you. This requirement is not for last year?s Information technology guru, but tomorrow?s. This contract work would be conducted in Ottawa, and could commence as early as mid-late August, 2008, run till the end of the fiscal year (March 31), and likely be renewed. Please accept my apologies if this is not the most appropriate use of this mailing list, but the best people to perform this work aren?t well known in the resourcing world ? yet. I would appreciate your response, feedback or any direction you could offer.
