===AutoLink===
Sincerely,
It is possible to never use double []'s for internal pages, and just allow any page title to automatically 'link' whenever it happens to appear in written text. --[[User:Ownut|Ownut]] 22:07, 27 January 2008 (PST)

: This sounds neat - is it possible to add it here, and if it is not liked - turning it off - or does it make changes that would need to be reverted? [[User:MDilley|MarkDilley]]

#* Just start by creating wikilinks for all countries that are mentioned, e.g. [[France]], [[Netherlands]], [[United States]]

# Write a page on naming conventions.  Currently people are named two ways - for refernece LastName, FirstName and for editing the wiki FirstInitialLastName.  For working within the wiki however, people will not be writing LastName, FirstName, too difficult. Maybe FirstInitialLastName, but more naturally is just your name. [[MarkDilley]]


- '''Note on naming conventions''': Hi Mark, I do not agree with the use of CamelCase, which is machine language, though you could write your name "Firstname Lastname". However, the existing convention, taken from the library and documentation world, is "Lastname, Firstname". Since there are already hundreds of entries in that format, please let's stick to it.

An Invitation

Dear Visitors:

I would like to use this page to call for volunteers who would like to help The Foundation for P2P Alternatives become a better platform on P2P developments and as a place to link up with people sharing similar values about a more participatory future.

Even if you update a page of your choice only once a week, over time, your contribution is substantial. Multiply it with other contributors, and the effect is dramatic.

If you want to help us, please write to michelsub2003 at yahoo dot com to get a user account, and feel free to leave comments here, edit, or go ahead doing this stuff if you already have an account.

Sincerely,

Michel Bauwens

Open access

I finally installed the reCAPTCHA plugin and opened write access to "anonymous" editors. People cannot create accounts yet, but if our open-up experiment turns out to work fine we should open that as well. I protected the main page since it's too visible. The reCAPTCHA is shown whenever an "anonymous" editor wants to add a link. Spambots know this and sometimes do probes with random strings, but they're easily removed and not as bad as links. --Guaka 01:50, 27 July 2008 (PDT)

new favicon

Abundance came up with a nicer looking favicon.  :) Guaka 21:42, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
