Re: [lojban] A new Lojbanic wiki (LMW). On the threshold of the 25th anniversary of Lojban



To clarify my standpoint:

I agree that "we should aim to make it as user-friendly and up to date as possible."
I also think that "geeky" contents can have a place in the new wiki.
(Under the condition that they are up-to-date and not cryptic, or at least explains what it is about.)

There are good things and not-so-good things in the old wiki.
Lojbanic writings, project pages and maintained pages are good, and salvageable. (example: nicte cadzu)
Old "discussions" should not be moved to the new wiki. (example: [1])

Ideally, in my view, the new wiki will have a super beginner-friendly frontpage and also
in-depth articles are accepted (example: about the various parsers).

What I think would be neat is that we could try maintaining some kind of roster of jbopre, with self-reported levels of proficiency, activity in the community, and a list of works produced or other community contributions.

Probably this is realised through additional templates. It's absolutely not a problem provided that you give me some links to Mediawiki-based (i.e. ~ looking the same as Wikipedia) web-sittes that have such feature. Then I'll do the rest of work to import that feature too LMW. 

Extension:Semantic MediaWiki [2] with Extension:Semantic Forms [3] looks promising.

[3] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms

Usage example:
* Individual page with annotation: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_G1G1
* Edit with a user-friendly form: http://wiki.laptop.org/index.php?title=OLPC_G1G1&action="">
* Aggregated list of pages: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Deployments#Deployment_data

I may be biased about its user-friendliness though.
