Individual Proposals

  • Stick to technologies that are readily available (don't use technologies that would require research, or that are not sufficiently well established)
  • Avoid discussion as much as practicable
  • Keep it real, keep it focused (this is the planning for the wiki, not for strategising for the project, or documenting how to implement the project)
  • Rely on field experts for each field. We're the wiki field experts, keep it within our expertise
  • Focus our work on elements where there is consensus between us, leaving contentious areas to be dealt with later
  1. Establish if tree-like is desirable for our wiki
  2. Work on Needs, and prioritise them (request help from the community for this, through the admin team)
  3. Prioritise actions to take based on the priorities established on Need
  4. Create templates for the teams required for working on satisfying Needs, by priority, so that we can invite people to join them

I feel I need some more clarity. I'm not used to working with wiki's but I would be glad to help. How does converting to tree structure work? Same for templates? Where is the community based (other than 'likes')? Same for admin team. Things will probably get clearer soon anyway, but it won't hurt to let you know what I think.

Subpages are explained here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Subpages. I implemented the first subpage in your own User page, with the link to Notes, check it out! It creates an automatic link back to the previous page
It would be great if you read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Good_editing_practices and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Policies_and_guidelines. There are others that are more technical and much longer, but these two are a great way to begin. There is also a step-by-step tutorial to learn all the formatting tricks and shit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial/Editing. For a quick reminder of wiki formatting and tags, use this page: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting. Have fun!
Can you please explain a bit more your question about the communities? Also, when replying to this, please do so increasing the number of colons at the beginning of the line (so you'd continue with lines beginning with ::) and leave a ~~~~ mark at the very end, which is your signature, resulting in this: Ziggy (talk) 19:20, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

I think a Wiki is nice as an overview for planning and can have links to other sources. Also, it is perfect to store the results (current plan). However, I think for the actual planning, other methods might be more useful (e.g. spreadsheets on Google Docs).

Plan:

  1. What will people need? Information about this can come from general research results and from specific surveys. It will not be sufficient to know what an average person, a "normal" person, or most people need.
  2. Which resources are required to fulfill the needs? The list of resources will include goods and services that people need, but also goods and services that are needed to provide goods and services (recursive supply chain). Required resources will include materials, energy, tools, skills, time, etc.
  3. How can the required resources be provided in a sustainable way?
  4. How will resources be acquired that cannot be provided within the experimental community (e.g. initial resources, certain medical treatment, specific things individual people need).
  5. Many details of the plan must be developed in a circular or repetitive way. For example: What do people need? Which skills must people have to satisfy these needs? What do people need who can provide these skills? Which skills must people have to satisfy these needs? ...
  6. The Wiki will then slowly be filled with all the information that is required to start the experiment.
