Hi Everyone,
I've created a resource and supporting templates for organisations to create
a free portal page to profile their OER projects and activities on
WikiEducator.
This is a do-it-yourself resource which automates some of the more complex
navigation templates. I'm looking for volunteers
Hi Everyone,
WE is a unique educational wiki project in many respects. We are different,
for example, from Wikipedia in the sense that our collaboration is not
focused on developing an objective encyclopedia entry resulting from the
micro-contributions of a large number of editors. At the same

It is Collaboration Vs Protection; we need to fine tune

Hi Anil,
I think you're very right about consensus on resources where there is an
intent to collaborate on the development of a universal resource which
would be applicable in a wide variety of contexts.
However, consider for example a Ugandan teacher who is developing an OER on
Ugandan history
Dear Dr.Wayne,
I think the ambit of consensus is so broad so that it can include consensus
to ‘do not edit’ :) such and such thing….by such and such members….on such
and such occasions etc etc Of course it has to deal with editing guidelines
and Policy for page protection also
I am not
Hi Anil,
I see we're on the same page here :-)
I'm not calling or suggesting universal protection of pages -- far from it
-- it's not the wiki way.
I'm looking for us to find solutions within the ambit of our consensus
thinking to provide an indication to prospective editors to say please
Dear Dr. Wayne,
You are right. We may list out the instances with reason, the message to be
displayed for each instance, develop template and add it on consensus page
http://www.wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Consensus under a proper sub title.

Good idea -- lets get this done based on the feedback we receive on the list

Have been reading the interesting thread started by Wayne and between Wayne
and Anil. I agree with Wayne that these are the kind of issues/questions
asked about WE - specially when some materials are created for a particular
context and people do not want it modified. In case we develop suitable

You're right -- the educational issues relating to context and educators who
may not want their teaching resources modified is an opportunity for
WikiEducator to find creative solutions.
We're very fortunate to have a dedicated and experienced team from India who

Hi, all. Just some thoughts on this.
First, I agree it is not a collaboration vs. protection agrument. In fact, I'll
remind the list members that WE is under the Creative Commons license,
which specifically does not prevent using and further changing of a document;
but that is not the same as

Some time ago I had started the Germany WikiEducator

localization as well.

Hi All,
It will be good to have a page like:
www.wikieducator.org/Language_Installations, where all of the language
installations are updated, and in one place.
Anyone know how many language installations we have thus far and which
are planned?
Any ideas on organizations / individuals
Wow, Nadia, this is wonderful. Just had a quick look. I had no idea you
spoke German? Nice!

question that WE and wiki's, in general, must come to terms with
before they will truly benefit the communities they serve.
One reason I use some jpeg images to display research information in

Hello all,
I tested the resource, it works great, however, how institutions won't
be able to personalize the logo in the template since it is locked
because it is a general nav template.
I beleive there is a way to solve this issue... no doubts

Well spotted -- thanks for the correction. Together we achieve more than

Valid observation indeed. Also given that school

round them cannot be overemphasized . Maybe a kind of status value

Hi Everyone,
Protection of pages is a topical issue :-). Apology for the long post --
but this is an important community value in open education.
Clearly there are well-founded academic reasons for restricting
modifications, particularly in the area of original research. That said, I

Hi John,
Apology for the delayed response -- too many emails today.
