General Announcements
- Upgraded the Wiki to MediaWiki 1.15.1. Please report any problem! /Mike 12:19, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
- The new {{Webref}} template should make it easier to make similar referenses and external PDF links got the mini PDF icon (
). Also the Book sources page is updated (try ISBN 82-00-22506-2 to have a look). /Mike 18:18, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
License
ND Wiki uses the GFDL version 1.2. Wouldn't it be better to upgrade to 1.3 and then to CC-BY-SA, to be compatible to Wikipedia? --LA2 06:55, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- Yes! Is it possible to do that in one step? --Mike 07:44, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- There are two ways: (1) If you can convince every contributor to relicense their contributions, you can change to any license at any time. I guess this is possible on ndwiki, considering how few contributors you have. How many contributors do you have? If most agree, can you afford to drop the contributions by the rest? (2) The other way is to follow the transition rules in GFDL 1.2 and 1.3, but this requires that you respect some deadline, which might already be too late. --LA2 08:47, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- The deadline for option (2) was in August 1, 2009. NDWiki have the same reason to change as Wikipedia. See GFDL 1.3: Wikipedia's exit permit. Now we need all the major contributors agreement to "upgrade" the license. /Mike 10:27, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- How to do this in practice? We all add a statement (e.g. "everything I write may be licensed through CC-BY-SA") on our User pages? -- TArntsen 10:42, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
- If you need my agreement for changing the license of my contributions you have it now. Mike may change the license of my contributions to NDWiki to any license he think is appropriate.
So, that would take care of the legality and I can get back to doing real work. I'll continue to add more material soon, too much work right now. :-) --Gandalf 12:13, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

General layout
Should we try to put some more "start" links on the front page? Right now (May/2010) it's a bit difficult to find the interesting articles unless you know where they are, otherwise the only way seems to be to, for example, use 'Special pages->Categories' and continue from there. I ran into this when I tried to find a good place to link to the floppy article (currently there's no page linking to it): It's not easy to get the overview. -- TArntsen 12:55, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
