> http://planet.wikimedia.org/
>
> To get added, please follow the instructions at:
>
> http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Planet_Wikimedia
>
> This is a kind of beta test, and right now, the planet is in the
> English language; however, I have prepared a process for requesting
> new languages to be set up here:
>
> http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Planet_Wikimedia/New_language
>
> So please add your support if you wish to aggregate blog posts in
> another language.

> Again, this is for on-topic posts, not for diary entries. All feeds
> must either point to a blog which is almost exclusively about wikis,
> or filtered (WordPress, Blogger and other common blog engines all
> support filtered feeds by categorizing your posts, e.g., adding the
> "wiki" category to all posts which you want to be included in the
> planet). If this makes you feel uncomfortable, you can (in addition or
> in substitution) add your blog to http://wikiblogplanet.com/ , which
> does not filter posts for on-topicness. WikiBlogPlanet is run
> independently by Nick Jenkins.
>
> I hope that this new tool will allow us to share useful and
> interesting information, as well as opinions, more effectively across
> project boundaries.
