Archiving : after its third suggestion[1], the 2005 Wikimania-site
content is slowly being archived to meta:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2005:Main_Page
An idea for a new main page (with filler content) is being drafted;
and would benefit from feedback:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Linuxbeak/Sandbox
And some topics have been suggested via other mailing lists :
Birds-of-a-Feather sessions for trivia fans (Llywrch suggests a
literary game[2]); higher-education innovators on online education
(re: [3]); and the "sociological impact of Wikipedia on families and
in particular on spouse[s]" (a potential submission via Anthere's
husband [4] :).
Finally, the recent
Nature.com review has spurred new discussions on
the wiki-research list [5]; worth a look if you're not subscribed, and
a good place to get feedback on research ideas.
Cheers,
SJ
