Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-8-20130401181356

Hi Everyone,

I've enabled the new forums, to try and get some conversations going here. There seem to be a few things that need discussion, and I hope all of you will take part.

One issue is the lack of admins here. It will need a discussion among the whole community to decide who should be admins. You need someone sensible, calm, and who has the same ideas about what the wiki is about as the majority of others on the wiki.

Another issue is policies about things like editing others' articles. On some wikis, that's just fine. Every article is open for anyone to edit. On others, there is a general policy that the person who writes an article is the only one who should make anything other than very minor edits. You will need to talk about what applies here.

I'd also like to suggest that you switch to the message wall system of talk, which will help you keep track of conversations on the wiki. Talking is vital to a healthy community, and the new system is very useful in notifying both sides of the conversation of new messages.

So, the first thing to discuss... is what else to discuss? What are your views on where the wiki is going, and what else do you think needs to be talked about here?
