...with any other license than default? What are the options?
I find it problematic (in general) that text is treated in different
way (less flexibility than media)...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reusing_Wikipedia_content#Fair_use_…
Maybe this is something that can be discussed and give space for
experimental - creative - educational use as exception? What do you
think?
If not what is alternative? iFrame from other website that displays
also text in WikiSpore?

I wanted to share that the Cargo extension (an evolution on Semantic
MediaWiki) is now enabled on Wikispore Test.
You can see a couple of examples using the 'City' table here:
https://wikispore-test.wmflabs.org/wiki/Sacramentohttps://wikispore-test.wmflabs.org/wiki/Ljubljanahttps://wikispore-test.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:CargoTables/Cities
I think you need admin rights to make a new type of table, but not to use
an existing table. Feel free to experiment with it on Wikispore Test, and
we should be able to enable this functionality at the main Wikispore in the
near future.
Feel free to ask any of your Cargo-related questions here!
Thanks,

This call, we will review how the first annual Wikispore Day went (pretty
well!), and see how to pursue next steps for the sister project planning
process:

We are planning Wikispore Day for Sunday July 19, to be hosted on Wikipedia
Weekly Network.
https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/wiki/Wikispore_Dayhttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Weekly_Network
The current schedule has a 3-hour run time, but I think it may be best to
reduce it to 2 hours.
I was thinking of a possible run-down like this:
History of Wikispore 15 minutes
Wikispore tour and list of spores 10 minutes
Spore subject highlight A 10 minutes
Spore subject highlight B 10 minutes
Wikilambda 30 minutes
Docs plus / etherpad 45 minutes including 8 three-minute lightning talks
We welcome anyone on this mailing list to participate (and your friends
too), even if you have not written a lot of Wikispore (noone has written a
lot yet!), or if your ideas are mainly for things that can only be
accomplished in the longer term.
Thanks,
Richard

Hi Germinators [what’s the wikinym [1] for Wikispore?],
While I was trying to catch up on Abstrapedia [is that a permissible
contraction? ;) ] during my first time on the call today (that was
marred by some technical difficulties on my end) I was thinking that the
https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/wiki/Wikilambda:Wikilambda/Plan
was not well-linked to
the
https://wikispore.wmflabs.org/wiki/Wikilambda_talk:Wikilambda/Glossary
entries.
Are there any Wikispore processes or Mediawiki extensions could help
with building glossaries and maybe automate linking to their entries
where relevant? I’m imagining something like a magic word that
associates a glossary page with an article, and maybe a bot that looks
for occurrences of entries in the article to link, perhaps with some
heuristic as to whether the intended sense might match the gloss, and
maybe even with some mechanism to flag ambiguous words in the article
that are yet to be linked to the proper gloss.
This could help force writers to be more concise in their writing, help
readers’ understanding (especially when not having followed a topic from
the outset), and perhaps help with translation of articles.
Independently of Wikispore I’d be particularly interested in what one
might call hierarchical glossaries: If a term isn’t defined in the
page-locally-associated glossary, the link goes to that glossary’s
‘parent glossary’ that might offer a more general, but (hopefully) still
valid definition.
And for extra credit, can we come up with a solution that uses Wikidata
as the glossary (or maybe Wikipetri/Wikidish?, a Wikispore-related
Wikibase instance)?
best,
Loren
