Licensing / Spam

Thoughts from wiki page making meeting:

• restricting creating links (e.g. account creation necessary), make links not appear in search engines to remove incentives for spam, it is important to create policies that can be cited, so that spam deletion does not seem arbitrary (what is trash, what is not trash?)
• Thoughts: people who create/edit a page are on the watchlist, so they get notifications if somebody makes changes - Katoss (talk) 16:24, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Reference Extension

The extension 'cite' was already installed (comes with MediaWiki 1.21 and up), but had to be activated manually. I tested it quickly and it seems to work. - Katoss (talk) 14:53, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

Homepage structure

I tried importing box templates from mediawiki for formatting, but got error messages when logged in as admin. I suspect it could be size limits for file uploads. - Katoss (talk) 15:10, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

I would suggest to add links to the "open issues" and "brainstorming" pages to the home page, in addition to what is in User:Esenabre's template. - Katoss (talk) 15:11, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
