* clarify the nature and extent of Consumerium in a way some may find less abstract than a Mission Statement.

::Please read [[Consumerium Social Club]]. We have tried for a long time to resist the [[community point of view]] biases common at Wikipedia, which are responsible for a good deal of the [http://recyclopedia.info/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=Wikimedia_corruption corruption that results] when there is [http://recyclopedia.info/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=Wikimedia_point_of_view one priveleged group that all knows each other] and socializes with each other.

::Your idea is very sound. But please rename it [[interests of Consumerium contributors]] or something else that does not imply we are a clique. Thx - [[trolls]], who are not "Consumerians", not "Wikipedians", and wish to allow people to contribute without having to declare this kind of information about themselves. [[Mandatory clique]]s have a name here: they're called [[faction]]s, and they're used only to resolve serious disputes that we have no other fair way to resolve.

* take an informal inventory of humyn resources potentially available to a project of Consumerium's nature, whatever that is.

If the Consumerium finds any of these topics to be off-topic, it is requested to waive non-subtractivity and summarily remove them from the list. This should facilitate the first objective without a huge compromise of the second, unless of course my view of humyn nature is even more overly optimystic than even I had thought. Please forgive me for deficiencies in my understanding of Mediawikian outlining protocol.

::It's sound to want to know what [[individual capital]] you have handy and who might know where to find what [[instructional capital]].

::Also, it is policy to use [[Recyclopedia]] links rather than [[Wikipedia]] links to subject fields, since, given the converge in value systems with them.

::Any user can do this obviously.

::Please stop inventing cliques. There is a [[wikitext standard]] pioneered by [[Mediawiki]]. There are [[naming convention]]s pioneered by [[Wikipedia]]. There is no "Mediawikian". There is no "Consumerian". There are "Wikipedians" and that is a ''bad'' thing, and provably so.

Or is this all redundant given [[Consumerium Concepts]]?

:No. [[Consumerium Concepts]] lists all sorts of legacy terms from "the XML" era. --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 22:18, 27 Mar 2004 (EET)

::[[XML dump]], [[XML import]] and [[XML exchange]] still matters - the [[wikitext standard]] doesn't solve all problems.
