Under Construction

Wiki mechanics (Nathan K, Alan B)

 * Require login before edit ( And furthermore user's can't edit until they have verified their email address. )
 * (How do I edit the 'create new user' page?) ( Edit the file includes/templates/Userlogin.php )
 * Recommend (but do not require?) user name = real name (Firstname Lastname, with a space) ( I edited Userlogin.php, but the actual texual string can be found at languages/messages/MessagesEn.php under the key prefs-help-username )
 * Turing test is a good idea ( Now sports a reCaptcha Turing test, but using reCaptcha keys for norbert.csail.mit.edu ... once this becomes neurocommons.org we just need to edit LocalSettings.php where I have already entered the keys for that domain but commented out. )
 * New user registration should trigger informational email to JAR (for now) (low priority)
 * Design - should not obviously look like a wiki
 * Get rid of "Main Page" title on main page
 * http://wiki.creativecommons.org is a good skinning model, although the design has more whitespace than I would likes. MediaWiki default is better in this regard - higher information density. We should use SC banner graphics, not CC's
 * Create new neurocommons-specific column or sidebar for the 'stack': science commons, RDF, OWL, SPARQL, OBO, etc.
 * http //wiki.creativecommons.org is a good model
 * Flush 'donations' link or follow example of CC wiki (may look unprofessional. ask JTW) ( Done via this page http://norbert.neurocommons.org/wiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar ) (But this page isn't editable by JAR.)
 * Put wiki pages at http://neurocommons.org/page/Some_Page so as to downplay that it's a wiki -- and flush the /index.php/
 * Deployment
 * Establish the vhost as 'neurocommons.org'
 * http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Interwiki_linking e.g. w:Wikipedia:Glossary On meta.wikimedia.org the link w:Wikipedia:Glossary links to the wikipedia page Wikipedia:Glossary Something in our configuration isn't set up to make that work on neurocommons.
