Talk:User Ownership

Hi Patrick,

just curious as to why you are using Produc, Own and other such shorthands? Are you planning to add info to those entries? and why not use the full word?

Dreams of objective (provable) discourse

Hey Michel,

I'll clean this stuff up if it bugs you, but let me tell you what drives me to do this:

I have some ideas about how wikis could aid communication through Plain Link - which is autolink without markup even for single word and multi-word titles.

This idea builds http://EcoComics.org is, but is written in Emacs Lisp, where it needs to be something like PHP, Perl or Python. The 'Source' of each page is *identical* to the rendered text.

For example, if someone wrote:

Society requires profit and profit requires scarcity therefore society requires scarcity.

All of the important word roots would automatically link to their definitions.

If the author doesn't like the definition for a term he would take that battle to that page or choose the correct term (what he meant compared to what the community has already defined).

I think this approach would help us understand each other in a way that we can begin constructing Proofs.

About the imperfect word roots such as "scarc" which appear:

• http://www.p2pfoundation.net/Special:Search?search=scarce
• http://www.p2pfoundation.net/Special:Search?search=scarcity

Or "produc" would cover produce, product, products, production, productivity, etc. and link automatically.
