Hey Steve, let me leave this in your hands. See CZ:Introduction to CZ for Wikipedians for what I worked on--feel free to fold it in, or not use it. I didn't realize that you were at work on this, or I wouldn't have bothered. --Larry Sanger 14:48, 30 March 2007 (CDT)
workgroups
workgroups build collaboration that wp did not/does not have.
workgroup recent changes allow you to monitor article changes within a general field.
wikipedia had sub-categories that only allowed you to monitor recent changes within that small sub-category instead of a general category like "biology workgroup."
Articles need to get tagged with workgroup tags for workgroup recent changes to work to its full potential.
Adding your name as an author to a workgroup...
Applying to become an editor of a workgroup...
Will add more ideas later. -Tom Kelly (Talk) 19:44, 30 March 2007 (CDT)
?
Really?
"At Wikipedia, creating lots of stubs is considered productive. Someone will always come along and add to it, "eventually". At Citizendium, we feel it is much better to start one or just a few articles, and concentrate on them until they are approved."
This is policy? -Tom Kelly (Talk) 20:09, 30 March 2007 (CDT)
What about Wiktionary, Wikiquote, Wikisource, etc.?
Do we ignore these? Link to them? Set up a Citictionary? Having done a lot of work on Wiktionary, I find it to be much simpler to work with and less subject to contention, manipulation, and plain silliness, than Wikipedia. Wikiquote, on the other hand, has some of the basic problems of Wikipedia on a smaller scale - obsession with pop culture trivia, arguments as to the notability of persons and media quoted, and efforts to manipulate the placement of quotes on contentious issues such as abortion and religion to score points for one ideological position or the other.
