[21:39] <LirazSiri> hi guys, I dropped by earlier this week to try to discuss ways to contribute to the UWN team. I proof-read the last version of UWN and figured there might also be other ways I could pitch in...
[21:39] <LirazSiri> Is anyone around?
[21:44] <Tumie> i'm here now LiraSiri, you can get news, (in the press an dblogospere).. and if you're language isn't only english, you can translate the UWN :)
[21:44] <Tumie> getting news is the most importent part of the UWN
[21:44] <LirazSiri> Hi tumie, I'm just talking to tyche about that.
[21:44] <LirazSiri> where do you guys put the news you find? straight into UWN?
[21:45] <LirazSiri> I mean the UWN wiki...
[21:45] <tyche> I usually work outside of the wiki, in a text file, then copy and paste it into the wiki.
[21:45] <Tumie> maybe we can make an /Incoming page..
[21:46] <LirazSiri> what are your sources for news?
[21:46] <Tumie> every week make it empty, so everybody can put their news into it
[21:46] <LirazSiri> that sounds like a good idea, and then maybe someone in a more editorial role can make a decision about what goes in and what stays out...
[21:47] <tyche> Enough of it is segmented that we can work independently.  Links to news articles can be done in sections.  I work from a template I created, partly from the raw wiki, and partly from instructions that I got from johnc4510
[21:47] <Tumie> i'm just translating the whole thing into dutch
[21:48] <LirazSiri> I'm bilingual but the only other language I know is hebrew and I suspect the audience for UWN in hebrew is miniscule.
[21:48] <tyche> One of the reasons that I work in a text file is that the wiki doesn't hold the edit page open for very long.  By working in a text file, I can take as long as I need, then dump it in in just a minute or two.  I also avoid conflicting with others that are working on the UWN at the same time.
[21:49] <LirazSiri> tyche: that sounds like a good approach
[21:49]  * Tumie is going to sleep..
[21:49]  * Tumie says everybody goodbye
[21:49]  * LirazSiri says goodbye to Tumie
[21:49] <Tumie> it is 22:49 here, rightnow :P
[21:49] <tyche> Tumie: Night.
