What's New

• Launching Meta Collab's Wikerviews - wiki interviews conducted in a nonlinear fashion. Feel free to contribute to existing interviews, or start your own and categorise here: Categories:Wikerviews. -- Mark Elliott 07:41, 19 Dec 2005 (UTC)
• Currently trying to develop a logo for Meta Collab which will replace the Wiki Cities logo in the upper left corner. Logo ideas are oscillating between a diagrammatic approach to representing the process of Meta Collab, and a more biological representation (having dificulties finding one!). If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know here. Mark Elliott 00:51, 11 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Bulletin Board

Post here to let others know about areas of the site that need work and/or attention. You might also post here MetaCollab projects that you'd like to begin, or are undertaking so that others know what projects are going on and where they might contribute.

• There's currently a proposal on the main Wikicities site, and associated discussion, exploring possibilities for greater co-operation and collaboration specifically between 'Civil Society' type wikicities (or wikicities on the slightly more serious type topics i.e. probably not gaming, sci fi etc). People new to wikicities and just seeing the most active section on the wikicities main page might conclude that there's not much (or enough) in it for them in if they're more interested in the slightly more serious stuff. The proposal is: Proposal for a Civil Society Quarter page with discussion on associated talk page, and at a couple of different pages earlier. All contributions welcome!
