Welcome to the wikihome project!

Notice

'This is a project for existing wiki projects... this will help the projects be more secure and easier.'

Project Description

The editors who build the Wiki projects work hard all the time, and it would be better if they had a place to come and go, to have conversations, to discuss certain stuff. See, for example, in Major projects such as Wikipedia, It's mainly official things that we discuss about, but in wikihome, we can create discussion subpages for editors to hangout in....Where they can talk about themselves and about how they are holding out with their life... and maybe we can make Only-administrator accessed pages where they can make decisions secretly without attracting other user's. This can be the main headquarters of the wiki-projects... A place where we can store Archive's and memories.

How an administrator discussion would be

There would of course be an example page, added later on...

The discussion would have all the details about the subject entered, and with a user verification sensor (like used in huggle) to see if the user is an admin or not. This page would be only accesible to administrators
The discussions can be archived and even when archived it can only be viewed by an administrator.'
The discussions can be viewed by extended-confirm users, only if they are approved by an admin
These discussions will have a bot each which will check all the activity 24 hours.
An administrator who will be an outsider to the discussion will check activity and progression once a week, if not edited, the discussion will be closed and severly protected until a respective admin from the discussion willl open it again.

Rules of the admin discussion

Inappopriate language cannot be exchanged by user's in the discussion.
The discussions must be only made if it is related to work in a wiki.
The discussions should be archived, or automatically archived by a bot.
the checking admin should leave his comments and an Approved tag on the talk page.
the discussion must be maintained very well.

How a hangout would work

example here
A bot will check a hangout every 24 hours, any hangout which includes inappopriate language will be banned or given a warning.
A hangout which is not edited in more than a month would be closed automatically, It can be opened again at anytime, but if it is not edited within 6 months, it would be closed under another policy and it will only be opened if approved by an admin.
If the chat is active, the status tag would be changed to green
if the chat is closed the status would be changed to Yellow
If the chat is banned the status would be changed to red

rules of a hangout

the policy line of a hangout must never be crossed
The hangouts must be well maintained
A new message must be written by using this format '!| Hey there! ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 14:54, 8 May 2019 (UTC)'[reply]
If a new user joins, welcome him, dont chase him away... if you want him/her gone, please give a {{removed|reason here}} template. This template will be added later on.
The discussion can be anything you want, but advertising and vandalism is not accepted, any user who vandalises or advertises, must be removed immediately.
A hangout could only be made by an autoconfirmed userand above.
An admin hangout would have protection due to vandalism.

Goals of this project

to prevent the other wiki's from stacking up/making the wiki's more neat. (the other wiki's can be used for it's official work and this can be used for the 'behind the scenes'. This will help with many difficulties)
To create a perfect working enviornment for editors. (sometimes editors need to sit back and relax, maybe even start an interesting conversation...)
To make the wikiproject work more secure.

Related projects/proposals

There are many other places for discussion,Wikipedia creates seperate sub pages and stuff, but it is really better for a hangout for the editors to be seperate. And of course, a place where all administrator discussions will be secret and only can be accessed by admins. A place where they store the oldest archives.

Domain names

www.WikiHome.com WWW.Wikinest.com

Who will run this project?

This project will be maintained by the editors themselves. But several chosen administrators will be the 'eagles' of this page. And as usual, the other user's will get rights such as Autoconfirmed, checkuser...etc... according to their contributions to the wiki.
The chosen administrators will be named as 'The foundation' of wikihome. They will make sure that the Wikiprojects will be neat and clean.

...so...you want a cabal wiki? Vermont (talk) 10:15, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vermont: this is unclear, can you describe what a cabal wiki is.... (don't judge me) ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 15:41, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It was a joke but see cabal. I'm not really sure if a MediaWiki format would work; IRC is better. Vermont (talk) 15:45, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vermont:Ok, But do you think that this project is a good idea? ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 15:48, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not really. Vermont (talk) 15:58, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vermont: Why not? ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 16:26, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

IRC chat rooms fulfill this purpose better. Vermont (talk) 18:09, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vermont: This is not just file sharing and chatting... it's also a file storage and much more. ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 07:22, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What would file storage be needed for? Vermont (talk) 08:28, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vermont: To store archives, like old discussions, old proposals...etc ArepTicous ^talk _contribs 08:51, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Absolutely not. Nearly every bit of this proposal is contrary to the Wikimedia movement. Hiàn (talk) 18:42, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. There are a lot of social media networks. BoldLuis (talk) 00:30, 2 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support Eshaan011 (talk) 18:46, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I agree with BoldLuis, but per Arepticous, it has more purposes. Will change to
Support or Neutral as soon as more merits of this project are shown. AnotherEditor144 ^{t - c} 20:21, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per above and use chat software instead. 𝟙𝟤𝟯𝟺𝐪𝑤𝒆𝓇𝟷𝟮𝟥𝟜𝓺𝔴𝕖𝖗𝟰 (𝗍𝗮𝘭𝙠) 22:16, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
{{ping|1234qwer1234qwer4}} You are correct, There really is no use. AnotherEditor144 ^{t - c} 11:34, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize for creating such a ridiculous proposal, i would like for this proposal to be closed by an administrator as i am no longer part of the wikimedia corporation... 18:01, 11 March 2021 (UTC) — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Arepticous (talk)
