European Tribune - Comments - Being Ready With Constructive Alternatives

Being Ready With Constructive Alternatives | 66 comments (66 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

I just popped over to EuroTribWiki for the first time in a very long while.

Two things are immediately clear:

in addition to the diaries referenced up-thread, there has been a lot of work done already not only to convert EuroTrib diary material into wikiable pages, but also to organize this material to highlight critical issues in a focused and structured manner.
there has been some serious vandalism done on pretty much every page there, by the looks of it, auto-generated by some spam software.

On that first point, I am not sure whether it is necessary to have a directory structure as a sort of map of the wiki topics, although if done well, it clearly could be enormously helpful.

Related to that, I am assuming that Wikipedia's Contents and List of Topics are completely manually created (i.e. not dynamically/programmatically generated), is that correct?

A language is a dialect with an army and navy.

Re: EuroTribWiki (4.00 / 2)

Part of the point of integration is to link the wiki to ET accounts, which will make random vandalism harder.
