Vikidia[edit | edit source]
When we will open yhis wiki? Regards. -- Comedia 18:28, 6 January 2014 (CET)
- The question is what should we do before to open it ? We should have a planning/check-list.
- Let's start:
- We must have some basic pages to explain what the project is about, its aims and rules.
- We already have: Vikidia:Basic principles; Vikidia:About (must be expanded) Vikidia:For children or by children?; Vikidia:List of articles all languages should have; Vikidia:Import of article from SEWP and Wikijunior; Vikidia:Relation to the Rights of the Child; Vikidia:Administrators; Vikidia:Bots; Vikidia:Oversight; Vikidia:Patroller, Vikidia:Request for permissions; Vikidia:Vandalism;
- we still need: Vikidia:Copyright; Vikidia:Legal matters (especially about the wp:Children's Online Privacy Protection Act in the US (COPPA) and the wp:Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 in UK - I will start it soon); and probably other pages. Any ideas of important pages to have?
- Set up the wiki, such as the sidebar with good short-cuts;
- Promotion: how will we tell about this wiki ? Let's create Vikidia:Promotion as well to write down our ideas.
- We must have some basic pages to explain what the project is about, its aims and rules.
- then we can set a date for the opening/launching I guess. That's not so much to do, we can do it in one week or 2 and set a date in 3 weeks for example ! Astirmays (talk) 20:40, 6 January 2014 (CET)
- There is also enough technical work to do - like the images that do not work. Southparkfan 21:22, 6 January 2014 (CET)
- I created User:Astirmays/Legal matters as a beginning on that subject, you can check and better it ! Astirmays (talk) 22:00, 8 January 2014 (CET)

Eiffel tower[edit | edit source]
Eiffel Tower. I made an error in the destination of the article. (Error of beginner). It is badly entitled and I do not know where it is. Could you make the correction please. Thank you.--Alexandrin (talk) 14:28, 7 January 2014 (CET)
In the page import, I replaced in transwiki import: all by Vikidia, is it the error ?.--Alexandrin (talk) 14:51, 7 January 2014 (CET)
- Yes it is, it put the page in the Vikidia: namespace, we just have to move it back and it's ok :-) Astirmays (talk) 19:36, 7 January 2014 (CET)
Experience[edit | edit source]
Hi there,
I have imported Stegosaurus from SEWP (actually it didn't import all revision, they were a bug, still it doesn't matter with regards to the authors because the article was nearly fully written by its first editor). Then I checked it, and then took some content from wp:b:Wikijunior:Dinosaurs/Stegosaurus as well, to be merged in the article. They would still be some work (the taxbox is not at the right place) but I think it makes quite a decent article ! It still takes some times, however certainly much less than to write it from scratch ! Astirmays (talk) 21:22, 10 January 2014 (CET)
