:Moving to [[GetWiki]] is an upgrade. Testing more damaged [[Mediawiki]] isn't, in the view of [[trolls]] anyway. See [[Wikimedia]] for a list of policies detrimental to the further development of the [[GFDL text corpus]]. | :Moving to [[GetWiki]] is an upgrade.

:Among other things the [[interwiki link standard]] is retarded by failing to put language codes first, meaning [[wiki linking]] to "English (whatever)" will always go to [[Full English Wikipedia]]. This is wrong in every way - the language codes are [[ISO standard]]s and all they should mean is "in English, please". | :Among other things the [[interwiki link standard]] is retarded by failing to put language codes first, meaning [[wiki linking]] to "English (whatever)" will always go to [[Full English Wikipedia]]. This is wrong in every way - the language codes are [[ISO standard]]s and all they should mean is "in English, please". Is there a fix for this within [[MediaWiki]]? | ||
:And why isn't the proper [[standard wiki URI]] supported by default on a new MediaWiki install? Is this another attempt to make it easy to refer to Wikipedia articles and hard to refer to others (by ensuring their URIs will be impossible to remember for the average user, and constantly shifting with each release of [[Mediawiki]] so only the Wikipedia ones are constant)? [[Trolls]] suspect so. | :And why isn't the proper [[standard wiki URI]] supported by default on a new MediaWiki install?

[[Trolls]] suspect so. We have lots of reasons to believe misfeatures are chosen deliberately to create dependence on Wikipedia and its incompetent "cabal". | ||
:If we see the distributed [[GFDL text corpus]] properly supported, we might change our minds. But for now it appears that [[Mediawiki]] is simply a sort of trap that [[GetWiki]] is trying to crawl out of. And we want out of that trap. We are necessarily [[multiple point of view]] at [[Consumerium]], and the ideology of [[neutral point of view]] simply doesn't and cannot apply, even if it made sense, which it doesn't. It is really all about their [[GodKing]] and what makes him personally comfortable or not, and the same is true for the features they implement, which seem to be going towards [[permission-based model]]s | :If we see the distributed [[GFDL text corpus]] properly supported, we might change our minds.
