If "search is temporarily offline for maintenance as of November 1 2004", should it perhaps be temporarily removed from its prominence on the front page and in the page templates? R

I did this in response to some recent comments that the front page was too overwhelming for new visitors. The "Recent Changes" box was useful for indicating that there's activity on the site, but was very visually noisy and duplicated the actual RC page's functionality exactly. The idea of what's there now is to be only a summary - I think consulting RC itself is better than consulting Home. The change of name to "recently edited" from "recent changes" is because the behavior of the box is different - only the names of the nodes changed recently are shown, with no duplicate entries. However, you'll see that my implementation is faulty, because the "recent changes" list feeding it only has ten items. Any duplicate entries will cause the list to shrink from ten items. The solution for this would be for it to read from the complete list of recent changes until it was full, but I don't know how easy that would be. -- Earle -- Earle Martin http://downlode.org/ http://purl.oclc.org/net/earlemartin/

But, where have the comments and user IDs gone? I know we can see them if we go to "Recent Changes", but it is handy to spot if a newbie or spammer has made changes that need checking or removing.

Anybody speak Dutch?? ----- Forwarded message from WikiBewerker <noreply(a)wikimaas.tk> ----- Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2004 09:49:18 "GMT" From: WikiBewerker <noreply(a)wikimaas.tk> To: Open guides London <earle(a)downlode.org> Subject: Vermelding Wikimaas Beste Open guides London, Sinds kort staat u, of uw organisatie/bedrijf, beschreven op het artikel Useful Links op WikiMaas. Deze WikiMaas (http://www.wikimaas.tk) is een alternatieve gids voor Maastricht, met daarin allerlei nuttige en leuke zaken die niet direct bij de VVV besproken worden. Iedere bezoeker kan informatie toevoegen en wijzigen. Het staat u vrij om meer informatie aan het artikel Useful Links toe te voegen, of bepaalde teksten te wijzigen. Wel zouden we er u op willen wijzen dat we qua schrijfstijl een informeel karakter proberen te behouden, en dat we per definitie geen reclame-site zijn. Een beschrijving is prima, maar kreten als 'superleuk' en 'de beste van Maastricht' voegen we liever zelf toe. Als u iets toevoegd, probeert u dat dan alstublieft in het Engels. Maastricht ligt in de Euregio. Frans, Duits en Nederlands zijn hier gemeengoed. Om een ieder dezelfde drempel te geven, willen we de site helemaal in het Engels schrijven. Wanneer u op uw website een link naar de WikiMaas zou willen plaatsen zouden we dit zeer waarderen. Het is echter geenszins verplicht en het heeft geen gevolgen voor uw vermelding op de WikiMaas.

I don't have a problem with the policy, if this is indeed the policy, but it needs to be explicitely stated. There are two views on the legality of linking remote images: 1) That there are technical means to stop people linking the image, so if that is the policy of the copyright holder, they can implement such means. 2) The unless there is explicit permission given for remote linking, it isn't allowed. Personally I go with option 1 with the proviso that if a request is made by an image owner to stop linking to the image, that the link is removed. -- Rev Simon Rumble <simon(a)rumble.net> www.rumble.net Given the choice between two evils, I pick the one I haven't tried before. - Mae West -- OpenGuides-Dev mailing list - OpenGuides-Dev(a)openguides.org http://openguides.org/mm/listinfo/openguides-dev ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Rev Simon Rumble <simon(a)rumble.net> www.rumble.net "Dans ce pays ci, c'est bon, de temps en temps, de tuer un amiral pour encourager les autres" - Voltaire
