what is the wiki-net? changes special

2006-09-03 Talk

MattisManzel: Yo, I got tangled up in the wiki-net. Translating “who cares here?” to German and creating a WerKümmertSichHierSeiten set of day-pages I got tangled up. Happens, on oddwiki-Zentrum: was ist eine Tages-Seite? it happened. Translating the titles of day-page sets we get a French wiki-net, a German wiki-net, an English wiki-net an Italian wiki-net, … That’s not what we want. We want one big soup, not five of them or so.

Thus (question)

CamelCase-titels of day-page sets are in English. I won’t get too many of them.

Hmm. Having English CamelCase-titles for certain pages on a German wiki is awful ….

The question is how the wiki-net server can tell what is what.

A feed coming in with *WerKümmertSichHier? at the end can be identifies as a feed *WhoCaresHere? of a wiki in German, can it? And it can be adequately processed, can it?

We have to think about the functionality and a possible programming of the wiki-net server. I know too little about feeds and programming and might take wrong decisions now that cause a lot of eviteable work later.

I want cross-language capability for the wiki-net.

Let’s take a wiki in English. Some people care for it (are listed on “who cares here?”). Amongst these who care is a German and a Chinese.

By means of the wiki-net it should be possible to generate a dynamic list of all wikis that the core participants of the wiki also care for - that means a list of all wikis the core participants are also listed on a day-page set named WhoCaresHerePages? but also on German wiki’s day-page sets named WerKümmertSichHierSeiten? and the respective Chinese equivalent.

We have to think about what possible day-page sets could make sense and create a nice table of obligatory CamelCase-titles for these pages for all languages. So that one (in words one) wiki-net can work. As I said, they won’t be too many. I think it should be possible.

Continued on page-title conventions.
