{{KrytenKoro|We've started up the SEIWA site, which has an overview of the mission and policies. There's also a forum set up, though it's not linked from the front page. DTN has the link, so people can start discussing the thing there. Of special note is the thread on the policies, which we are going to need community approval on before finalizing.}} | {{KrytenKoro|We've started up the SEIWA site, which has an overview of the mission and policies.

{{DTN|time=18:36, 2 July 2011 (EDT)|text=We cannot present the SEIWA site to any interested wiki sites yet, and therefore needs to be completed before we reach out to other wikis interested in joining SEIWA. We need to still complete the site, which involves completing the Rules page, finalizing and adding to the Home page, and adding any additional pages desired. Also, the forums need to be completed, which hasn't happened yet.}} | {{DTN|time=18:36, 2 July 2011 (EDT)|text=We cannot present the SEIWA site to any interested wiki sites yet, and therefore needs to be completed before we reach out to other wikis interested in joining SEIWA.

{{TNE|time=05:39, 4 July 2011 (EDT)|text=Apparently Sove's handling the forums, but he's coming across a bit of trouble... We're not sure how it's gonna be handled, whether we're gonna be willing to let our databases be locked for a few hours to copy usernames &c to the forums or otherwise, and stuff. We had a discussion about that not very long ago...}} | |||
{{Sove|time=20:38, 5 July 2011 (EDT)|roxastalk=There won't be any database locks, I found it's just totally impossible to do the userbase importing. It can be done when it's only one wiki but if there are multiple wikis involved, it's impossible without using a system like Wikia, but doing that would break the idea of SEIWA. Therefore everyone needs to register to the forums separately, it shouldn't be too hard task for anyone, the CAPTCHA can be temporarily disabled if somebody is having troubles reading it. | |||
As DTN said, the forums and the site are not ready yet, not even close, and that's a part where community's help is needed. As of now, there are two topics; one for the rules and one for the forum privilege policy. Both need discussion. We also need a personalized style but that's a future thing. | |||
Staff members will be placed into the group KHWiki Staff (similar usergroups will be made for the joining wikis as well) which also gives them the usertitle mentioning their position as a staff member. For staffers: If you register and I'm not present on IRC, you can ask Kryten or DTN to place you into the group (if either one is present). The group membership can be given [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/ucp.php?i=groups&mode=manage&action=list&g=8 here] (set as default group or the usertitle won't show up).}} | |||
{{The Inexistent|KRCCFNF='''Just so everyone knows, [http://www.facebook.com/pages/Square-Enix-Independent-Wiki-Alliance/187164294673712?created&sk=page_getting_started#!/pages/Square-Enix-Independent-Wiki-Alliance/187164294673712 I have reserved] the Facebook page. Before someone jumps on me, no, I will not do anything to it before we launch, unless you guys want me to. I plan to ignore it until Chronopedia is under our wing, so we actually become an "alliance".''' | |||
EDIT: 22:16, 5 July 2011 (EDT) '''I just tried to reserve the name SEIWA, so it could be redirected to the full name, or vice versa, but Facebook will no longer allow pages with all caps without special permission. But, if we get big enough, they should let us, I think.'''}} |
