Discussion
By 'Negotiations with TORn (2007? 2008?)' do you mean the email exchanges I had with them? I can post them here if you like. -- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 18:51, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- It's up to you, you can do. (I've finished doing what I can with this article, now, so hoping others will add/change as they see fit.) --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 19:03, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
- I might do it when I get time. -- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 22:11, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
Praise
GREAT article Mith! Good work! :D -- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 22:11, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
Wikifactor
Should we mention in this article that our WikiFactor is 39? --Amroth 11:36, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- It might be worth it. It says here that we're WikiFactor 32 (not 39, as you said) and they've classed us as a vibrant wiki. Although it still classes us an an OpenEdit wiki, when we're not (for the time being at least). -- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 12:02, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- The last time they updated that was in May 2010, I've calculated the new Wikifactor (with Popular Pages) which is 39. --Amroth 12:16, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- Edit: Just to let you know I updated their page a bit. --Amroth 12:25, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- Just wondering, why did you take us down from vibrant to active, Amroth? — Mithrennaith 05:18, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- From the description of the Category:active, also when combined with that list, I get the impression that ‘active’ describes a very basic level where the wiki is functional and basic housekeeping is performed. Our wiki is definitely more than that, there are several editors who develop projects or work more or less steadily to improve a specific group of articles or field of knowledge. Also, don’t forget that we have regular meetings.
- Furthermore, the description of the Category:vibrant gives a number of grounds to conclude that a wiki is more than active, enough to merit the label ‘vibrant’. We certainly have significant content; the fact that we are discussed now and again on other Tolkien sites and fora indicates that we generate a certain level of interest. Moreover, it was apparently already felt that TG merited the label ‘vibrant’, I think there is enough ground to let that stand. — Mithrennaith 23:32, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- Right, I’ve put it back to ‘vibrant’, I’ve also repaired (‘with duct-tape’) the broken image of our logo there and the broken link to our stats, updated the number of pages and added our interwiki partners there (same as had already been done for Ardapedia, the others are not listed on wikiindex). — Mithrennaith 00:20, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
- Agreed, I think we more than qualify as a 'vibrant' wiki.-- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 00:35, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
