I, [[w:User:Ashibaka|Ashibaka]], hereby establish the '''Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are In Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They are Deletionist''' ('''AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD''').
Hieronder wat commentaar:
Bij gebrek aan schaalbaarheid wordt eigenlijk niet uitgelegd waarom het één server concept niet schaalt. Ik geef toe dat dat min of meer een open deur is, maar nu staat er eigenljk: 'het is 1 server dus het schaalt niet want het is 1 server'.
:Klopt. De eigenlijke reden is dat het NFS is (nergens genoemd inderdaad), en om dat te clusteren je uit moet wijken naar distributed filesystems, die weer onstabiel of commercieel zijn. Ik wou het technisch deel eigenlijk wat beknopt houden, omdat ik niet aan wilde tonen ''waarom'' we 'n probleem hebben, maar ''dat'' het er is, en welke nadelen het met zich meebrengt die ik op wil lossen. -- [[User:Mark Bergsma|Mark Bergsma]]


The motto of the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD is ''Est generatim difficilis judicare meritum quisdam rei includato in encyclopaedia cum non certe ratione scire qui capit populum, sed aliqui rei nihilominus non sunt apti prae encyclopaedia'', which translates to, "it is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia." This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.
Is 'onmogelijkheid uitbreiding meerdere clusters' geen nadeel, maar het toepassen van clustering zou een oplossing zijn voor beide problemen?
<div style="float: right; margin: 1.5em; style: white-space: nowrap; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-style: italic">
Ik zou het als kopje: 'voorstel oplossing' geven en dan beschrijven hoe clusteren/distribuering alles mooi maakt ;-)
Now for ten years we've been on our own<br>
:Het is een nadeel omdat het de andere clusters, waaronder het nieuwe cluster dat Kennisnet zelf gefinancierd heeft, een stuk minder nuttig maakt. -- [[User:Mark Bergsma|Mark Bergsma]]

Membership is not limited. All you have to do to become a member is list your name here. If you feel like expressing your wishy-washy feelings, you can do so at [[/Blurbs]].


The current General Secretary is [[w:Front Page|Everyone]]. All members '''are''' the Secretary, so nominations are unnecessary. Matters that concern the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD as a group necessitate a vote.
Bij motivatie: pas op met wat je je op de hals haalt. Ik zou je opdracht formuleren als: zoeken naar een oplossingsrichting, voorstel doen en eventueel implementeren. Nu zou je stage kunnen mislukken als bijvoorbeeld de wiki community jouw oplossing verwerpt, ook als je iets prachtigs hebt gemaakt.
:Dat is waar. Ik wil het inderdaad zo doen dat mijn stage slaagt als ik iets goeds en werkends oplever, ongeacht of dat ook daadwerkelijk gebruikt gaat worden. -- [[User:Mark Bergsma|Mark Bergsma]]


==Goals==
Het punt 'relatief lage kosten voor Kennisnet...' kun je beter formuleren als: 'wiki commons wordt door boven beschreven verbetering geschikt om door Kennisnet gebruikt te worden binnen Webmaker' (of zo). Dat is het voordeel/reden dat Kennisnet die wil financieren/uit laten voeren.
I have always felt that these should be everyone's common goals:
:Ik hoopte dat eigenlijk al duidelijk te maken met het punt dat beschrijft dat hiermee nieuwe projecten mogelijk worden. Ik hoop eigenlijk dat Kennisnet dit zowieso wil ondersteunen om ons te helpen volgens de doelstellingen, niet alleen omdat daarmee een van Kennisnet's eigen projecten mogelijk wordt. ;)
:Het punt 'lage kosten' gaat erom dat door de stagevorm veel gerealiseerd kan worden met relatief lage kosten, i.t.t. het inhuren van een ontwikkelaar. Kennisnet heeft er weinig nadeel aan.


# Judge not, lest ye be judged.
Bij gestelde eisen: Haal het stuk over 'put get del traverse' weg, dit is een uitwerking voor in je verslag.
# Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Verder lijkt het me wijs om je begrenzing 'de basis' iets scherper te stellen (tenzij de TUE hiermee akkoord gaat ;-)
# Love thy neighbour as thyself.
:Denk eraan dat dit stuk niet bedoeld is voor de universiteit (dat schrijf ik in de eerste week van m'n stage, al kunnen delen hiervan wel gebruikt worden), maar om Kennisnet te overtuigen die stage te mogen doen. :) -- [[User:Mark Bergsma|Mark Bergsma]]


==Template==
Verder zou ik bij 'stagevorm' de twee paragraaf eindigen na 'binnen de universiteit'. Wat daarna volgt is al gemeld in de eerste paragraaf.
Keeping up to date with the latest news in the Wikipolitical world, I have discovered the existence of [[w:Template:Inclusionist]]. I would not want our movement to be left out of this new and exciting realm of template-making, so therefore I have created [[w:Template:AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD]]. I encourage, but do not command, our members to use this interesting-looking template on their user pages. Good day! [[User:Ashibaka|Ashibaka]] 19:21, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Bij tijdbesteding zou je nog kunnen opnemen dat de ontwikkeling 'time boxed' is en dat ook als het systeem nog niet werkt/af is je toch stopt ;-)

At the very foundation of any utterance is meaning that tallies not with an objective reality outside ourselves; instead these are mere instruments to satisfy human needs, categories we impose on reality to make it practical to our subjective existence. This is why the "Some Particularly Bad Articles" statement can only be rooted in a subjective position, with a corresponding opposite position that is not more nor less valid; One can therefore not trump the other in an objectively justifiable manner... This is why I call for truncation of the association's title to a mere "Editing Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article".

Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are In Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They are Deletionist

I, Ashibaka, hereby establish the Association of Wikipedians Who Dislike Making Broad Judgements About the Worthiness of a General Category of Article, and Who Are In Favor of the Deletion of Some Particularly Bad Articles, but That Doesn't Mean They are Deletionist (AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD).

The motto of the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD is Est generatim difficilis judicare meritum quisdam rei includato in encyclopaedia cum non certe ratione scire qui capit populum, sed aliqui rei nihilominus non sunt apti prae encyclopaedia, which translates to, "it is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia." This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.

Now for ten years we've been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rolling stone
But that's not how it used to be

Membership is not limited. All you have to do to become a member is list your name here. If you feel like expressing your wishy-washy feelings, you can do so at /Blurbs.

The current General Secretary is Everyone. All members are the Secretary, so nominations are unnecessary. Matters that concern the AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD as a group necessitate a vote.

Goals

I have always felt that these should be everyone's common goals:

  1. Judge not, lest ye be judged.
  2. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
  3. Love thy neighbour as thyself.

Template

Keeping up to date with the latest news in the Wikipolitical world, I have discovered the existence of w:Template:Inclusionist. I would not want our movement to be left out of this new and exciting realm of template-making, so therefore I have created w:Template:AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD. I encourage, but do not command, our members to use this interesting-looking template on their user pages. Good day! Ashibaka 19:21, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thanks Ashibaka for providing a "middle ground". Objective Researcher 05:11, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)
  • Who cares what the goals are, the name alone is cool enough to make me want to join! Jnc 16:51, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I disagree with proposed "common goals." Adraeus 13:47, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • I support my local AWWDMBJAWGCAWAIFDSPBATDMTD representative. Plus, I'm now a member of everything but the Deletionist and Apathetic associations, so I'm bound to get lots of new friends. Wheee! (^_^) JRM 14:47, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Exactly what I'm looking for. Evil Monkey
  • --CiaraBeth 17:52, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC) Yay! Finally found somewhere I fit.
  • I think I also signed up to be an inclusionist, or at least considered it. I hope that doesn't disqualify me. TUF-KAT 22:06, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
  • Tatteredpaper | (talk) Very Nice.
  • I don't join nothing -- count me in! -Rholton 05:55, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Anything this wishy-washy is inherently worthy. IMeowbot 18:01, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Yup. Oven Fresh 21:01, 9 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • \Mike 20:20, 2005 Jan 25 (UTC) yeah, this is so me :)
  • Definitely me. Too deletionist to be an inclusionist. Too inclusionist to be a deletionist. Too insane to be sane. --Deathphoenix 06:25, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Exactly my feelings! Simonfairfax 19:30, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Ah, yes. This firs me just fine. Can I get the motto on a bumper sticker? – ClockworkSoul 18:06, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • The partylike wrangling over deletionism scares me. Really, who bloody cares if someone's a deletionist or an inclusionist. →Iñgólemo← talk 07:42, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • And to think it took me almost half a year to find this...and it's another edit...hooray.
