Reason for deletion
When deleting information from a page (not counting nonsense that was just put up as a stub) or clearing all members from a category in order to discontinue its use, I feel it is very important to provide a brief explanation on the discussion tab for that page. This will resolve a lot of potential arguments and misunderstandings, and should be considered common courtesy. I think this is something we should adopt as a standard policy. Keep in mind, no one is questioning whether anyone has the right to delete information - what's at issue is whether or not an explanation should be provided. Please indicate below whether you agree or disagree. Xstryker 13:25, 3 August 2006 (CDT)
- Disagree. If people feel like leaving comments or explanations for why they alter stuff, that's fine. But most changes made to this wiki have been uncommented, and there's been no real problems so far. What should definitely be made standard policy is respecting other wiki contributors by confronting them in private if there are questions about the changes they make, rather than making a public spectacle out of each and every uncommented alteration (because at the rate things are going... that'd be one really big circus).

Community Projects
Let's use this space to discuss projects to work on.
Linking
I think there's a lot of value in including links to relevant posts at the bottom of an article. To make an external link, use single square brackets instead of double square brackets. Don't forget the http:// - it's vital.
Religion
There's a lot of discussion about religion lately. Which gods are considered part of the Web Pantheon? Should the religion portal be folded into the culture portal? Can we sum up each of the Web's relgions with a philosophy that represents their overall point of view? Should gods be treated like regular characters?
Neo
Since Neo is over, the number of articles we can create on various topics is finite. Did religion play enough of a role to get its own portal? Did culture? I think for Kupopolis Neo, we should roll Religion into Affiliations and Culture into Geography. I also favor splitting Artifacts into Magic and Technology.
Templates
Who wants to be the first to get us some wikipedia style infobox templates?
