:Um, though, aren't we trying to encourage stuff to be refined to the point where SOMEONE considers it "research"? [[Wikipedia]] articles are usually not good enough to be in an encyclopedia, but it's at least possible to say "that's not good enough to be here". One could ditch things from a [[Research Wiki]] for "not being researched", it's damn hard to ditch things that are just "noise". That name properly belongs to [[Development Wiki]] where everything is truly noise until it becomes code. |
