The forums are a multi-thread discussion space for future editorial and instance-development plans. They are ordinary wiki pages in the Forum: namespace — watchable, searchable, in recent changes.
Boards
| Board | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Forum:Editorial plans | Future editorial plans — content areas, outreach, language coverage, on-wiki conventions |
| Forum:Instance development | Instance dev plans — extensions, namespaces, tools, CI/deploy, infrastructure |
Starting a thread
- Open the board you want to discuss on (see the forum index).
- Type your topic title in the Start a new thread box on the board and click the button.
- Write your post and save. The page is preloaded with the forum header and the board category, so the thread appears in the board's listing.
Replying
Replies are added below each post, indented with one colon per level. Sign your posts with ~~~~ — it renders as your name and timestamp.
House rules
- Stay on topic; be civil.
- Keep discussions on the forums, not on content pages.
- Threads are wiki pages: watch them (star), link them, browse their history.
