Browsing Wikispore for the first time, I was interested that an Art
Spore was highlighted on the front page. However it is no more than a
brief propositional description.
Trying to give some thought to what might be the possibilities of this
project, I placed some scoping thoughts on the Talk page:
https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/wiki/Talk:Art_Spore
I am not sure how active this mailing list is, but, either here or on
that Talk page, I would be interested to find whether my scoping
thoughts are consistent with what is envisaged for that Spore, whether
people have other artefacts which might help build towards some content
there, etc.
I have checked with a few people, and here are some concerns regarding
Wikispore, which, I am sure, can be easily resolved. I am happy to help
with the first three if I sense consensus on these topics.
1) Privacy policy
2) Terms of use
3) Code of Conduct
I am sure we'll easily agree on the first two, just taking the respective
policies from the other WMF Wikis and link them accordingly.
Regarding 3), mediawiki.org has a CoC, meta does not, and I would really
like us to start Spores per default with a CoC. What are your thoughts?
4) Visual Editor?
Would it be easy to set that up? My guess is that Spores are for novel user
groups, and VE seems to be something useful. But I also think to remember
that setting up VE used to be sometimes a bit complex.
Stay safe,
Denny
