== Why a (separate) forum? ==
jiggle my buttt
 
Why is there a separate forum for this wiki? Seems to me mediawiki has all we need with discussion pages (as we could prove here :). If we want to have general discussions, we could have a [[Project:Forum]] page that would indicate the idea of the forum and a [[Project_talk:Forum]] page that would be the chat itself...
 
It seems to me the SMF forum just adds extra burden to the administration of this site. For example, there's spam now in the forum too, and very little content.. Why not focus our energies here? -- [[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 17:24, 2 October 2010 (CDT)
 
:I have found the old [[Discussions]] page, and I moved it to [[Project:Forum]]... It was fairly confusing since that page was targeted at being a temporary measure while the forum was created, but then it was included in the "websites" template... so i removed it from the template, and moved it within the project pages, where it belongs. -- [[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 11:54, 3 October 2010 (CDT)
:In fact that [[Discussions]] page was created *after* the forum and was explaining how the forum was needed "sorting out". So I assume the forum situation is not ideal, and that we can get rid of it. I have therefore edited the frontpage to point to the wiki forum instead of the separate wiki. -- [[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 12:00, 3 October 2010 (CDT)
 
== Let's cleanup the frontpage ==
 
The frontpage isn't really pretty right now. While there's a lot of good information in this wiki, the frontpage doesn't allow for easily finding it. We should focus on guiding incoming users based on what they are looking for or who they are. A "newbies" section would be really good. I think we could be inspired by the [http://amateurradiowiki.us/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page frontpage of the amateurradiowiki.us site]: even though that site has less [http://amateurradiowiki.us/wiki/index.php?title=Special:AllPages pages] and [http://amateurradiowiki.us/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Statistics visits], it's better organised in some places... Oh and it copies a lot of content straight from wikipedia... --[[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 19:05, 2 October 2010 (CDT)
 
:I have created an alternative frontpage, see [[Project:New frontpage proposal]]. If there are no objections within a week, I will put it online. --[[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 11:29, 3 October 2010 (CDT)
 
::I have put the new frontpage online. -- [[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 23:28, 10 October 2010 (CDT)
 
== How does this compare to wikipedia? ==
 
My last question is this: how does this compare to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Amateur_radio wikipedia's ham radio project]? It seems there are a lot of good quality articles on wikipedia (especially the band plans, where the articles are just better than what's here), so I'm not sure where the boundary should lie between the two wiki... See also the [http://toolserver.org/~tim1357/cgi-bin/wikiproject_watchlist.py?cat=0&template=WikiProject+Amateur+radio&limit=25&user=&order=desc recent changes of that portal]. -- [[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 22:14, 2 October 2010 (CDT)
 
: I think I have a good answer now: here is the "how", wikipedia is the "what". We also take refugees and content too specific to fit into wikipedia. Documented this in [[Project:Posting guidelines]]. I also posted [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Amateur_radio#How_about_that_amateur-radio-wiki.net.3F this note on wikipedia]. --[[User:TheAnarcat|TheAnarcat]] 14:04, 3 October 2010 (CDT)
