: 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?); People who create/edit a page are on the watchlist, so they get notifications if somebody makes changes - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 16:24, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

We need a short text introducing the wiki(@[[User:Madprime]] would you still like to give it a try?) - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 15:10, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

=== "Why wiki"? ===
  −
It might be good to have a short text reasoning why we develop this wiki, and how it is different from other existing platforms. This could be part of the "about" text on the homepage, or maybe a dedicated text, e.g. on the [[Help:Personal Science Wiki FAQ]] page. - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC) ([https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p61Zp48JXYxc5tB2q7WR51ZQ8_TS0s8-LDtvVSC88QA/edit#heading=h.y4etespabjjo Source])
      
=== Which metadata should the pages use? ===
 
=== Which metadata should the pages use? ===
 
Which metadata would be good to have for tools, topics, people and projects in order to make pages easily findable and create a useful semantic structure for this wiki? (I hesitated to put this into "brainstorming" rather than "open issues". It might be good to agree on some basic/evident properties now and to let the rest develop over time) - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 11:20, 18 November 2021 (UTC) ([https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p61Zp48JXYxc5tB2q7WR51ZQ8_TS0s8-LDtvVSC88QA/edit#heading=h.revlivpbh366 Source])

: 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. - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 14:53, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

: 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. - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk: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. - [[User:Katoss|Katoss]] ([[User talk:Katoss|talk]]) 15:11, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
