I've also set up a test blog, where one can post opinion pieces, original research, controversial material, whatever one wants related to astrobiology:
Guidelines
- I set this up after a bizarre situation in Wikipedia where the original for Possible Present Day Habitats For Life On Mars was deleted by editors who knew almost nothing about the topic and didn't even know about NASA's objective B of their first science goal.
- See my Alice In Wonderland Sanctioning In Wikipedia - Blocked For Covering NASA's Science Goal To Search For Habitats For Life On Mars‽
So, the idea was to set up a wiki where if you contribute a good astrobiology article it is safe from being arbitrarily deleted by people who know nothing about the topic. If you've wanted to make encyclopedic articles about astrobiology but find Wikipedia frustrating as an editor, this may be useful.
With that background in mind:
- Will proceed more like scholarpedia where if someone contributes a good and substantial article, then they are treated as the main author and need to approve significant changes.
- Similar also for collaborative articles. It's only me editing at present. But anyone can in join in working on it. Please respect existing content and and other authors.
- I don't think the voting method for Wikipedia works well with no overall vision.
I'm admin and will be final authority if needed. Hopefully will be a friendly place :). Also on things like how to categorize pages, on what is and is not included etc.
Otherwise similar to wikipedia - mainspace articles to be reasonably encyclopaedic, please keep to well sourced statements.
Blogs can be original research or opinions and points of views. Can put in your own user space and link to your blog from the main page.
