Ok. This is a Blog, blog is just a web page where all the content is in reverse chronological order (kinda redundant: a blog in a wiki, but I'll see if this works). You may comment on posts if you like, but please be sensible and do it on the [[User_talk:Juxo/Blog|talk page]]

Still hoping to be revitalized. It must be this increasing darkness of the fall that I haven't gotten around to do some serious work around here. Well well...
And a note on a practical issue. Today there were some outages due to software upgrades on our host.

My connection got fixed (I payed the overdue bill, which might have something to do with it).
I'm off to an undisclosed location for a couple of days and hope to come back revitalised.

Very tired and very occupied with other matters for a few more days. In a desperate attempt to relax I saw two movies today: "Sibelius", which was about this famous finnish compositor and "My Life Without Me", which was about the state of humanity in developed northern countries circa 2002... or something. This combination helped so shoutouts go to Isabel Coixet and The Almodovar Brothers for making this nice picture. I hope [[endorsement]]s are not forbidden in the [[rules]] ;)

[[Troll]]s request your attention at [http://www.metaweb.com/wiki/wiki.phtml?title=Metaweb:Authored_vs_anonymous_pages Metaweb:authored vs. anonymous pages].  The standards they set, should be the straw man for the standards we set.  We may need to vary ours very much, but, we should start from what they can agree on.

I have some pressing non-consumerium matters that i have to attend to now, but I must say that I'm excited by the way things are going. We seem to have reached a stage where the theoretic groundwork is fairly done, but now there are serious practical issues to resolve like licensing schemes used in [[Opinion Wiki]] and [[Content Wiki]] and of course the issue of how to not get sued. Resolving governance is also a big problem, since vandalism and other mischief has to be dealt with, but that is going to result in lots of flames to those who have to draw the line on what is acceptable and what is not.
To minimize the threat of a flamestorm the [[instructional capital]] has to be well thought out and well defined and expressed.

Now if we implement this [[WikiVote]] thing then there are two or three different types of votes and three is too much imho.

But the "new" [[Wiki]] approach and the [[features|original vision]] can be brought closer by using strictly named subarticles that are then "collapsed" into a viewable document for the [[consumer]] based on her/his [[preferences]] ie. articles and their subarticles form a tree and [[preferences]] define what branches and leaves are visible and in what order. If you want to see ecological stuff first when fine. If you want labor issues first, fine. If you want consumer reviews first, fine. And this way we can have more fine grained version control (signatures) and editors can concentrate on the subarticle that is closest to their expertese. Also newbie editors are less likely to get irritated over the syntax requirements that are not usually present in wikis. Parsing monolithic articles would also hog more resources
