Ok, we do not have a good way of communicating right now. We need to set some standards and start creating templates and populating the pages. I'm creating a Google Group which will allow us to keep email communications. If you do not want to be on this list - do not respond. I don't think you have to do anything to remove yourself from it.

Any suggestions? I think that wikis are great - but not the best for communicating in this form. --[[User:Bingobar|Bingobar]] 19:05, 16 January 2011 (MST)
 
  
Wait, what's wrong with the Glitch Strategy Wiki group forum [http://alpha.glitch.com/groups/RLI10HMCMQL1MBR/] we've been using? Not dying to give out my email address [edit: you'll see below that I created a new email account so this isn't an issue for me any longer] - [[User:Eglantine|Eglantine]]

Add new discussion topics at the bottom of the page (or use the "Add Topic" link).
  
Prefer not to give out my email address as well, but I admit the Glitch groups are a pita to post in sometimes (tip: post in html mode). Vote to remain in the glitch wiki group. -[[User:Ping|Ping]] 22:03, 16 January 2011 (MST)

Well, good point about the Glitch groups. Well I've created a forwarding gmail address which I'll put on my user page so that (I think) at least I can read the Google Group even if I don't respond. - [[User:Eglantine|Eglantine]] 22:08, 16 January 2011 (MST)

Good idea, Eglantine. Did the same. -[[User:Ping|Ping]] 22:54, 16 January 2011 (MST)

Who's joining this? I will if others we're all going to use it. - [[User:Hburger|Hburger]] 09:23, 17 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
Hburger - I'm not sure anyone has signed up yet since Bingobar hasn't given any information on how to do so. BTW, I just learned yesterday that you can automatically sign your posts on wiki by typing "~" four times in a row into the page :), check it out using the "Show Preview" button - [[User:Eglantine|Eglantine]] 09:02, 17 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
Ahhh! I was wondering how you guys did that! Thanks! - [[User:Hburger|Hburger]] 09:23, 17 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
The Glitch encyclopedia has been heavily updated. Now they list more basic information about things (I looked at a spice). [[User:Johnny|Johnny]] 13:06, 18 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
How do I connect to the Google Group?  Either is fine with me, I'm @ teletypeturtle@gmail.com.  [[User:Lelu|Lelu]] 15:11, 18 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
I personally think that the Google Group would be better, but it seems like most people think differently. Whichever is fine with me! [[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 11:58, 19 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
By the way, if you want easy communication and chat, setting up an IRC channel on irc.lurkmore.com would be fine. There's the #glitch channel already on there but it's open to non-wiki Glitchizens as well. Setting up a #glitchwiki channel would be a good idea. [[User:Johnny|Johnny]] 15:12, 19 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
Oh, Houdini, I'm totally fine with the Google Group now that I have a glitch-only email address... just waiting to get an invitation for it. Johnny, is the existing lurkmore IRC channel the one here: [[Glitch_Strategy:Community_portal]]? - [[User:Eglantine|Eglantine]] 17:18, 19 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
Eglantine: Oh, OK. And yes, the existing IRC channel is that one. [[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 10:08, 20 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
For all items, under Actions, can a bot put information for 'Drop' and 'Give', so it's uniform across everywhere and saves time...? - [[User:Hburger|Hburger]] 10:11, 20 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
I hadn't noticed that page. It's the same network, though you might want to use a different channel for the wiki stuff and general chat in the #glitch channel with non-wiki people. [[User:Johnny|Johnny]] 10:52, 20 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
 
A separate #glitchwiki channel would be pretty smart I think, if you know how to create that. Also, as I'm new to IRC myself... can you tell me how to get a history of the chat that I missed while I was offline? Believe it or not, even I go for hours sometimes with my computer turned off! - [[User:Eglantine|Eglantine]] 12:46, 20 January 2011 (MST)
