Wikipedia talk:OmegaWiki

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I added markers on the page, all concerning the neutrality of the article. This article uses "we" a number of times (e.g. in the major milestone section). In addition, it looks very much like an advertisement of the developers of the project to me: "it was clear that...", "The logical consequence was...". Weasel words occur e.g. here: This resource is considered to be an optimal collection of...

This isn't an article, it is a page in the Wikipedia Namespace, which "provides information about Wikipedia or its sister projects and how to use them." Hence, it doesn't have to adhere to encyclopedic article standards or conventions. It could use an update, but otherwise it is fine. Hope that helps. -- Quiddity (talk) 18:33, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I see. But then, Wikipedia:OmegaWiki should probably not redirect here, but get its own encyclopedic entry, not? Leechuck (talk) 10:31, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Not sure. OmegaWiki should probably(?) not redirect here. There doesn't seem to be a current guideline though, just an "essay" at Wikipedia:Cross-namespace redirects. I'm not sure what the current thinking/consensus is to do with these? Anyone else know?

Writing a new article about OmegaWiki would probably be the best solution, regardless. -- Quiddity (talk) 18:35, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
