Hola, I registered to the mailing list and I am pleased to see lot of collaboration-discussion.
BUT: WHY A MAILING LIST? I am an entrepreneur and to build-followup a project we never ever use a mailing-list. You are all Wikipedia early adopters so pls USE A WIKI to discuss and process this Wikidata project! Twenty or more mails per day about this project is not manageable and useless (how do you organize the different questions and ideas? ) Thx for your time Isabelle Ayel Tel/Fax: +34 976 088 566 Email: [email protected] My blogs: isayel.net | pouce-café <http://zfr.posterous.com> | zaragoza día día <http://zaragozadiadia.posterous.com> Networking with: <http://www.facebook.com/isayel?ref=name> Facebook<http://www.facebook.com/isayel?ref=name> <http://twitter.com/nanouk> Twitter <http://twitter.com/nanouk> <https://plus.google.com/111878932945338226153> Google Plus<https://plus.google.com/111878932945338226153> <http://es.linkedin.com/in/isabelleayel> LinkedIn<http://es.linkedin.com/in/isabelleayel> Contact me: [image: Google Talk] isabelle.ayel [image: Skype] aspmaetb [image: Twitter] <http://twitter.com/nanouk> Latest tweet: #Zaragoza Domingo de Ramos, tambores y bombos #semanasanta voy a San Gayetano, nos vemos (estaré sentada @carlosgutierrez Follow @nanouk <http://twitter.com/nanouk> Reply <http://twitter.com/?status=@nanouk%20&in_reply_to_status_id=186416129869221900&in_reply_to=nanouk> Retweet <http://twitter.com/?status=RT%20%40nanouk%3A%20%23Zaragoza%20Domingo%20de%20Ramos%2C%20tambores%20y%20bombos%20%23semanasanta%20%20voy%20a%20San%20Gayetano%2C%20nos%20vemos%20(estar%C3%A9%20sentada%20%40carlosgutierrez> 13:34 Apr-01<http://twitter.com/nanouk/statuses/186416129869221888> Get this email app! <http://www.wisestamp.com/apps/twitter?utm_source=extension&utm_medium=email&utm_term=twitter&utm_campaign=apps> On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 12:47, Oren Bochman <[email protected]> wrote: > There is lots of excitement but I think that many of these discussions are > missing the social aspects of this project and leading to many > counterproductive suggestions (or atleast unrealistic use cases).**** > > ** ** > > Creating a centralizing repository for Wikipdias data is both a social and > technically challenge.
