Hi again,
Since this list seems to be active again, I thought I'd ask for a little help :)
I would like to import the editnotices system from en.wikipedia to meta-wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Editnotice
We may not need all of these features. My personal use for it would be
to automatically add the text of {{PD notice}} to all the subpages of
[[m:WMDOC]] in edit mode. It would be easier, faster and more
consistent.
Any user well-versed in this kind of tech stuff willing to help please?

Yes. :-) Pretty much everything. If it's too much, then we'll end up
pruning it. The best thing right now is to include as many things as
possible that are related.

You could do that too, but I don't expect there to be as many on other
wikis and we're not necessarily expecting you to do that. If you do
go through many wikis, you can do whichever you like. :-)

If there are a few on the same wiki, you can just create a section
like == nl.wikipedia == and put them all under there. If there are
not many, just put it in the "Other wikis" sections.

That would be great too!

I have never been comfortable with the proliferation of Wikimedia
lists. ComProj is one of the ones that I love in spirit and
principle, because it is an open project that is compatible with any
number of copies of itself. But I would find it much easier to
contribute to comproj-related initiatives if they were discussed on,
say, foundation-l and #wikimedia. You could start all of those
threads with [comproj] if you wanted.
If you are worried about flooding some people with too much
information -- keep the high-flood discussions on a wiki, where people
can choose their own watchlists and review an entire thread at once,
and link to them when starting a new one. Or, as Simon suggests,
actively explore new tools for collaboration.
But we hurt ourselves by making so many separate (and often
unnecessarily private) lists and channels. Meanwhile the main lists
and channels have dropped in traffic since their peaks in 2006. No
surprise - that's when all of the committees and walled gardens
started being built. The process must be addictive, because this has
been a known problem for years, and we keep doing it.
How about organizing a list- and irc-chan-consolidation campaign? I
think this would help communication and community building a lot, and
wold be motivated by such a campaign. It would also be an interesting
first step in getting people to think about what sorts of new comm
technologies we could be supporting or developing.

Hi All,
The Metapage told me to send a introduction mail to this list, and by checking the archives I think the list needed a new email. (its kind of dead)
For the people that don't know me, I am Huib (user:Abigor on all wikimedia projects) I'm active on Wikimedia for almost three years now
and since I'm getting more and more spare time I am looking for other things that could be usefull.
I'm working fulltime in our family company (road tranport) and I'm pretty good with webdesign, I know my way around with css, php, msql and I have designed
styles that are used on my own sites and our company website. So maybe I can help with stuff, maybe not we will see.
One last thing, my English isn't my best language I'm sorry for that.
Best regards,
Huib Laurens
