I guess I should not have mentioned this anywhere since you trolls cannot take this as an issue where I know how it feels to hold the keychain without any key to the chain that cuffs it to my wrist. If you would dare to stick to a real life personality online you would maybe understand some of the pressure and annoyance that comes with a role like I and Jimbo share. | |||
:Ah, so you are a [[GodKing]] now? But you can give it up any time, you have not got a whole [[sysop power structure]] worshipping your very poo, and needing this for your self-esteem. Be one of the [[trolls]], maybe even give up the [[Lowest Troll]] job to other trolls, and your problems will fade away. The "pressure and annoyance" comes entirely from this demand to know evertyhgin and judge everything. | |||

:::Well can we add some code like [[GetWiki]]'s to just fill in blank pages with [[XML import]] from [[OneLook]] or [[TrueNames]] or some other service? | |||

:::::Code "like" theirs is easy to write. Just look at theirs, and write new code that works the same, but is not the same. There is no provision in the [[CC-nc-sa]] to stop you from trying to [[reverse engineer code]]. | |||
It is better to leave open those pages with obvious meanings, so that we can find a way to figure out what they mean in context from their references later. It is also fine to leave [[Proper Name]]s or companies and people open so that they can eventually be directed to acceptable commentary about them. A few theory terms like [[respect for diversity]] and [[wiki mission]] are so wide open they should be defined more by osmosis, and we should wait as long as we can to do so - preferably using examples from elsewhere. | It is better to leave open those pages with obvious meanings, so that we can find a way to figure out what they mean in context from their references later.
