Develop, Research, Publish?
(no, don't do that - it's got to be "research" to SOMEONE's standards to get into Research Wiki; Also everything has "noise in it", so the name is not specific enough)

: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.

:How about [[Code Wiki]] or [[Develop Wiki]] (this one you're reading), [[Research Wiki]] (the one full of articles of various levels of merit), and [[Publish Wiki]] (the one that actually goes to print, and has the status of "published material" either ads or editorial?  Maybe [[Signal Wiki]] is just a bit too abstract, especially if the [[Consumerium buying signal]] is going to be more commonly "published" as a book or database downloaded into some [[worn device]] or [[checkout counter]]?
