<hr />
<div>The July Wiki Wednesday was fairly low-key with only a few participants. Mark Dilley, Kristina Weis, Kotra DeNies, and Michael Andersen all met and talked about various things, including:<br />
* US Social Forum (Mark helped organize the recent 2010 event and spoke about the experience)<br />
* Wikimania 2010 (also just happened)<br />
* Recent Changes Camp (aka RoCoCo, also just happened too)<br />
* RecentChanges.org (the website and wiki for Recent Changes Camp, and how it's organized)<br />
* [http://portlandafoot.org/ Portland Afoot], its inaugural newsletter, its wiki<br />
* Related Changes ([[Special:RecentChangesLinked/Wiki Wednesday of July 7, 2010|the link in the toolbox to the left]])<br />
* Suggestions for PortlandWiki<br />
** adding to the anonymous and new user captcha a message that explains how the captcha will eventually go away<br />
** new article forms (use Semantic Forms extension or Extension:Form)<br />
** suggested articles (based on http://portlandwiki.org/Special:WantedPages )<br />
** new articles (based on http://portlandwiki.org/Special:NewPages )<br />
* Blikis (blog-wikis)<br />
<br />
Dave and kotra worked out some technical issues, so a MediaWiki update to PortlandWiki should be forthcoming, enabling an installation of the Vector skin, in turn enabling kotra to finally work on a new skin for the wiki (he hopes!).<br />
<br />
== Different location? ==<br />
One significant point of discussion was the idea of having these Wiki Wednesdays at a different venue. The reasons to do this were:<br />
* elevator won't go past 4th floor after 5:30, and the outer doors might also lock at a certain point. Either could prevent some people from visiting.<br />
* people who work at AboutUs might enjoy getting out of the office for these meetings.<br />
* downtown may be a more convenient location for some people.<br />
This could be a good topic to discuss in next month's meeting.<br />
<br />
<br />
All in all, it was a good meeting and a welcome relief from the 95-degree weather.</div>Kotrahttps://pdx.wiki.org/?title=Welcome_to_Portland_WikiWednesday!&diff=3798Welcome to Portland WikiWednesday!2010-07-04T09:12:21Z<p>Kotra: updated for next month's meeting</p>

<div><div style="float:right;width:200px;padding:10px 15px;margin:0px 0px 10px 15px;background:#ddf;">"there's nothing more satisfying than a good name." -Perry Wagle</div><br />
On May's WikiWednesday we heard [[John Abbe]], a key designer of the structured [[wiki]] [[Wagn]] (http://Wagn.org), talk about the importance of naming in your community. Cited by Joshua Schachter as clarifying his thoughts in developing Delicious.com, John covered concepts of ontology useful for all participatory online spaces, not just wikis.<br />
<br />
John reviewed the history and background of the [[WikiNames]] concept (http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?ChoosingWikiNames), and the further space for creating meaning opened up by Wagn's "plus cards". The discussion moved to exploring Wagn's "wagneering" infrastructure more than once, as well as topics like namespaces, CamelCase (AKA WikiCase), and name conflicts in Wagn.<br />
<br />
As always, this WikiWednesday was free and open to everyone, experienced wiki walker or beginner. Participants included Ward Cunningham, kotra DeNies, Mark Dilley, Don Parks, Max Ogdin, BJ Clark, Perry Wagle, Michael Anderson, Steven Walling, Jeff Burling, and Brandon Sanders.<br />
<br />
After the discussion, a few of us stuck around a bit longer to talk about Wagn, CamelCase, MediaWiki, and other stuff. Perry said something that we thought was pretty quotable so there it is at the top of this page.<br />

<div>The April Wiki Wednesday saw a return to the normal levels of attendance. 5:30pm saw Ward, Mark, Jeff, and kotra sitting around the table at AboutUs, talking about plagiarism of Wikipedia, ''[[wikipedia:Manos: The Hands of Fate|Manos: The Hands of Fate]], travels, DavisWiki, and other topics. Soon we were joined by Teresa and Dave, and we discussed long-term viability of wikis in general, Deletionism on Wikipedia, methods to build PortlandWiki, Google Fiber, new hosting for PortlandWiki, and finally, the PortlandWiki logo.<br />
<br />
Of the latter, we showed the current candidates (visible at http://portlandwiki.org/PortlandWiki:Logo) and fairly quickly came to a consensus decision on #3 (http://portlandwiki.org/File:PortlandWiki_logo_v3_paths.svg). This brings to a close months of very sporadic work on the logo, and will finally result in the new logo being put up on PortlandWiki within a few days (as soon as [[User:kotra|the author]] gets off his lazy ass).<br />
<br />
Doughnuts from Voodoo doughnut were consumed, and were messy.<br />
<br />
At 7pm, all six dispersed.<br />

<div>Because Ignite fell on the first Wednesday of March, we [http://groups.google.com/group/pdxwiki/browse_thread/thread/64cfbfca88a956f6 decided] to postpone our meeting until '''March 10, 2010'''. Unfortunately, the unusual scheduling is probably what caused the low turnout. Mark Dilley, Ward Cunningham, Kotra DeNies, and Michael from [http://portlandwiki.org/User:Michael PortlandWiki] were the sole attendees. We edited PortlandWiki a bit and talked about the PortlandWiki logo, and headed our separate ways. There were Voodoo Doughnuts (cold from the bike ride, sorry) but not enough people to eat them all. This would have surely been the greatest tragedy of all if kotra hadn't taken home the remainder.<br />
<br />
It ended pretty early at about 7:30.<br />
<br />
== Monday meetings ==<br />
Monday meetings are still happening in force every Monday, and are attracting more and more people (more than this Wiki Wednesday for sure). Check out PortlandWiki's [http://portlandwiki.org/PortlandWiki:Monday_Meets PortlandWiki's page] on them or browse the [http://groups.google.com/group/pdxwiki mailing list]; we sometimes talk about them there.<br />

The '''Wiki Wednesday of August 5th, 2009''' was larger and productive, full of plans for future projects. 12 people attended: Pete F., Kristin W., Mark D., Steven W., Kotra D., Geoff B., Dave M., Ray K., Teresa B., John W., Ward C., and David G.<br />
<br />
We discussed two major projects:<br />
<br />
* Establishing a [[Portland civic wiki]] (be sure to check the [[Talk:Portland civic wiki|talk page]] as well)<br />
* Planning for [[RecentChangesCamp]] 2010.<br />
<br />
We also talked about:<br />
* a new skin for this wiki<br />
* possibly having these meetings at a library<br />
* possibly having [http://www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/07/hey-kid-support-your-local-wiki/ wiki weekends] from time to time<br />
<br />
We watched the [http://blog.aboutus.org/2009/08/04/intellipedia-hits-a-home-run/ Intellipedia video] and admired the result of our tax dollars.<br />
<br />
Several pretzels, chips, and cookies were slaughtered mercilessly.<br />

<div>The '''Wiki Wednesday of February 3, 2010''' was quick but useful. Jeff ([[wikipedia:User:Llywrch]]), Michael (from [http://portlandwiki.org/User:Michael PortlandWiki]), Mark Dilley, Kotra DeNies, Melissa Chavez (from [http://theportlandalliance.org/ the Portland Alliance]), Ray King, Dave Myers, Ward Cunningham, Steven Walling, and Michael Andersen came by, most fairly briefly. We talked mainly about PortlandWiki and about how to restart [http://portlandwiki.org/The_Portland_Alliance The Portland Alliance]'s wiki. This would be a publicly-visible wiki used to collaboratively draft and edit articles in The Portland Alliance prior to publication, but in the meantime, testing may be taking place on dedicated pages on PortlandWiki like [http://portlandwiki.org/The_Portland_Alliance/Draft_article_1].<br />
<br />
Most who attended were pretty busy and could only come by for a short time, so the meeting (probably?) ended around 7:15.<br />
<br />
== Monday meeting ==<br />
Mark Dilley and Dave Myers have been meeting up to collaborate on PortlandWiki lately, and all are encouraged to come by during these casual sessions. There is no strict schedule, but they will probably happen on Mondays from 6:30-8:00 at [http://www.backspace.bz/ Backspace] ([http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Backspace&sll=45.525217,-122.675765&sspn=0.007953,0.01929&gl=us&g=115+Northwest+5th+Avenue+Portland,+OR+97209&ie=UTF8&hq=Backspace&hnear=115+NW+5th+Ave,+Portland,+OR+97209&ll=45.525322,-122.675765&spn=0.007953,0.01929&z=16&iwloc=A NW 5th & Couch]).<br />

<div>'''January 6, 2010''' kicked off the first '''Wiki Wednesday''' of the year. What was nearly canceled due to a the absence of Ward, Ted, and Kristina turned out to actually be a fairly good-sized meeting. Mark D., Teresa B., Kotra D., Ray K., Steven W., David G., and Dave M. all came by and talked a lot about [[PortlandWiki]], but also about the [[Portland wiki conference]] and other things. Specific topics included:<br />
<br />
* Additional monthly meeting... WikiWeekend?<br />
* How people are going to get into these meetings anyway when the building locks the doors at 5:30 and all the phone numbers on this wiki's main page either go to voice mail after 5 or belong to someone who lives in San Francisco now (we changed the numbers)<br />
* PortlandWiki - let it grow organically or actively work on?<br />
* PortlandWiki logo (see [http://portlandwiki.org/PortlandWiki:Logo here] for development and discussion)<br />
* PortlandWiki extensibility: blog aggregation, Twitter, RSS, YouTube, etc<br />
* Considering other wiki software than MediaWiki for PortlandWiki - Oddmuse, Mindtouch, Wikispot.org etc<br />
* PortlandWiki hosting - currently generously hosted on Dave's own personal server, will eventually want to set up some sort of community-owned host<br />
* Bug on [http://portlandwiki.org/Special:AllMessages]<br />
* Portland wiki conference - planning<br />
* more?<br />
<br />
The meeting ended some time after I left (please fix this sentence if you know when).<br />

What was nearly canceled due to a the absence of Ward, Ted, and Kristina turned out to actually be a fairly good-sized meeting.

Specific topics included:<br />
<br />
* Additional monthly meeting... WikiWeekend?<br />

<div>This page is a very crude and simple centralized location for general discussion about this wiki. If you have general suggestions, comments, or questions about the wiki, this is the place to raise them.<br />
<br />
Some of this discussion may occur on the [http://groups.google.com/group/pdxwiki?lnk=srg&hl=en mailing list], but in the interest of even greater transparency and openness, it may be better to discuss, or at least keep track of what was discussed, here. The disadvantage to this is that you aren't emailed when someone comments here, unless you set "E-mail me when a page I'm watching is changed" in your preferences.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Spam problem ==<br />
<br />
On the mailing list, several options were brought forth to deal with the spam problem. They are:<br />
* Implement [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ConfirmEdit a CAPTCHA] for non-logged in editors.<br />
* Semi-protect (non-logged in or very new editors cannot edit) highly targeted articles.<br />
* Implement [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SpamBlacklist a link blacklist] and update the list periodically.<br />
<br />
All who have commented so far (only three people, to my knowledge) have been in support of the CAPTCHA.<br />
<br />
So, at last Wednesday's meeting, [[User:Pete Forsyth|Pete]] and I were going to try to install the CAPTCHA. Unfortunately, we ran out of time. Installing the CAPTCHA may be delayed until either next month's WikiWednesday.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, Pete has semi-protected some spam-target pages. -[[User:Kotra|kotra]] 18:55, 14 March 2009 (UTC)</div>Kotrahttps://pdx.wiki.org/?title=Welcome_to_Portland_WikiWednesday!&diff=3755Welcome to Portland WikiWednesday!2010-01-07T02:42:41Z<p>Kotra: removed bad phone numbers (AboutUs # goes to voicemail after close of business, Pete moved to SF now), added Mark's with his consent</p>

<div>The '''Wiki Wednesday of November 4th, 2009''' was casual and unstructured, which was not entirely intentional. The suggestion originally was to have a "work party" where all would put their noses to their notebooks and laptops and start creating content for [http://www.portlandwiki.org PortlandWiki]. That did not end up happening; instead the Wiki Wednesday regulars (and a couple new faces) had lively discussions about various topics, perused online media, and consumed snacks.<br />
<br />
A primary topic of discussion was [[User:Pete Forsyth|Pete's]] <s>impending doom</s> [http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2009-October/055688.html new job] at the Wikimedia Foundation. Also discussed were the social structures of Wikipedia and Wikimedia, the current placeholder logo for PortlandWiki, and the purpose of PortlandWiki (these are only a few of the multiple conversations that were taking place simultaneously; further additions are welcome). There was also a Google Wave demo for those who hadn't had a chance to play with it yet.<br />
<br />
The Wiki Wednesday ended roughly around 8pm.<br />
<br />
== Comments ==<br />
* This was likely Pete's last attendance, as he is moving to San Francisco. He's mentioned he may help restart/reinforce the bay area Wiki Wednesday tradition. If his help organizing and attending our monthly meetings is any indication, their Wiki Wednesdays will do well. I wish him the best in what will certainly be an exciting new life and career! -[[User:Kotra|kotra]] 05:10, 5 November 2009 (UTC)<br />

<div>The '''Wiki Wednesday of September 2nd, 2009''' was energetic and productive, building on the plans begun in the [[Wiki Wednesday of August 5, 2009|last meeting]]. 11 people attended: Pete F., Mark D., Steven W., Kotra D., Dave M., Teresa B., Ward C., Ian O., David G., and newcomers Oliver Ortiz (of [http://dotcal.com dotcal.com]) and Ted ([[wikipedia:User:Tedder|User:Tedder]] of Wikipedia).<br />
<br />
We continued our discussion and planning of two major projects:<br />
<br />
* Establishing a [[Portland civic wiki|Portland Wiki]]<br />
* Planning for a [[Portland wiki conference]] in 2010<br />
<br />
Most of the meeting was consumed with planning for the [[Portland civic wiki|Portland Wiki]]. Needs were identified, ideas were explored, and (perhaps most importantly) everyone took on a task or two to try to complete by the next meeting. Next meeting we are hoping to bring laptops and have a fun "working" session to create some good, brand-new content for this new wiki.<br />
<br />
During the latter part of the meeting, there was planning for the [[Portland wiki conference]] (tentatively, or formerly, named RecentChangesCamp). This planning shared the same method (and white board, which Pete likes to call the "wiki on wheels") as the planning for the Portland Wiki, and several of us volunteered to take on tasks for it as well. One interesting intersection between these two projects is an idea (Ward's?) to have a large-scale, guided editing session where conference attendees would, individually or in groups, build content to the Portland Wiki, creating entries for anything from coffee shops to local nonprofits to payphones.<br />
<br />
We also talked about:<br />
* Oliver's venture, [http://www.dotcal.com dotcal.com], and how online calendar systems could intersect with, or be, wikis (Please sign up for a free demo account and if you have any questions you can call me at 503.803.6910 or oliver@neutralspace.com -Oliver)<br />
* ?<br />
<br />
Donuts from Voodoo Doughnut, potato chips, cheetos, pretzels, soda, beer, and cookies were all consumed. Because we hate our bodies.<br />

<br />
We watched the [http://blog.aboutus.org/2009/08/04/intellipedia-hits-a-home-run/ Intellipedia video] and admired the result of our tax dollars.<br />
<br />
Several pretzels, chips, and cookies were slaughtered mercilessly.<br />
