[Wikisource-l] Planet Wikimedia: Add your blog feeds

[Erik Moeller]

We have just launched http://planet.wikimedia.org/ , which is an
aggregator for all on-topic wiki-related weblog (blog) posts by
participants in Wikimedia projects. The planet can be found at:

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.

Peace & Love,
Erik
