As many of you will be aware, there has for some time been a discussion on
the Water cooler regarding how best to engage with everyone from
well-established members to potential contributors, and ensure there is
space to have robust discussion about WMUK and its operations, as well as a
space in which to ask questions and talk about our activities and projects.
As a step forward, we've now split the Water cooler into two pages:
. The Water cooler, which keeps its original name and intention - a
place for discussion about our activities. This can be found under the 'get
involved' section on the sidebar.
. The Engine room, which is a space to discuss and debate WMUK
operational matters. This can be found under the 'organisation' section on
the sidebar
I've now gone through the process of moving threads regarding WMUK
operational matters to the newly created Engine room
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Engine_room> , while keeping threads
around our activities and getting involved on the Water cooler
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Water_cooler> page. This will be our
first attempt at creating different spaces for different types of
discussion, and we're still working on the headers for these pages (the divs
now inserted at the top of the page). If you watch the Water cooler
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Water_cooler> you may also want to add
the Engine room <https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Engine_room> to your
watch list. I've also moved the Water cooler
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Water_cooler> up to the "get
involved"
section on the sidebar. The new Engine room
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Engine_room> can be found under
"organisation" on the sidebar. If you think I've incorrectly moved
something, or have a suggestion for how we should define and describe these
places do let us know (ideally here
<https://wiki.wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Engine_room#Getting_us_started> in the
Engine room). Finally, I look forward to seeing people engage on both pages.
