[edit] WELCOME

Welcome to my chittychat page. I welcome dialogue and discourse. I do not have as much time to dedicate to Wikipedia as I have fortunately had in the past. Waxing lyrical: I will continue my involvement and presence in this emergent self-governing complex adaptive system, the monoleth that is Wikipedia; albeit in a less intensive fashion. Why? The iteration and mapping of knowledges and the dialogic and developmental relationships forded by forums, tools and networks (such as Wikipedia), is central and key to the egalitarianism and sapience of my core values. The wiki, the instrument, tool or machine, the veritable stone and bedrock within which Wikipedia is set, finds its metaphoric extension or corrolate in the Yantra of the Sanskritic tradition. Yantra, like a wiki, is an instrument to capture, channel, focus, cultivate, associate, transport and transmute signal, energy and information in a collaborative, inclusive reticular forum. Yantra and wiki marry and unite that which is disparate: Something old, something new, something borrowed, something...blue.
Blessings and Godspeed.

Well, that is simple, ain't it? Just as any wikilink, sort of like this. Is this what you were referring to? :) Mspraveen (talk) 07:46, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Notice of Wikimedia Australia incorporation meeting

Dear Wikimedian,

I am writing to you as your named is listed at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Australia under "People interested in helping to create a local chapter". Wikimedia Australia's draft rules have been approved by the Wikimedia Foundation, and we now intend to incorporate in the state of Victoria. You are hereby informed of the intention to hold a Wikimedia Australia meeting on 20th April 2008 with the intention to

(a) authorize a person who has attained the age of 18 years and who is resident in the State to incorporate Wikimedia Australia under the Victorian Associations Incorporation Act 1981; [that is, elect a Public Officer] (b) approve a proposed statement of purposes of Wikimedia Australia; and (c) approve the proposed rules of Wikimedia Australia.

A majority of members must vote to pass the motion to incorporate as an association, for it to meet the requirements of the Act.

The proposed rules, and proposed statement of purpose, can be found here:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Australia/Draft_Rules_for_Wikimedia_Australia_Inc

Details of the incorporation meeting, including local meetings (to be joined up by teleconferencing, with any luck) and the agenda, can be found here:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Australia/Incorporation


In particular, you are invited to attend the Melbourne meeting:

I also encourage you to take part in discussion on the mailing list: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/Wikimediaau-l

If you are unable to attend, you can vote by proxy. Please copy the proxy form at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Australia/Proxy_form and send it to me in an email. (It is better to appoint a generic member, e.g. "Meeting Chair" or "Acting Secretary", both of whom will be of Melbourne, rather than a specific member, but the choice is yours.)

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Yours sincerely, Brianna Laugher Provisional Secretary, Wikimedia Australia

[edit] Substantial edits at the Dorje Shugden article

Dear editor I like to draw your attention to that specific article, Dorje Shugden, which was substantially changed by a group of three new editors, without any discussion on the talk page. Rather one of the new editor revealed: "Many of these changes were discussed between at least three of the editors." which must have happened outside of WP, because there is no discussion on the talk page or their WP-accounts. One of the new editors claimed: "You seem to be the only person who accepted this article as it was. If you check you will see that the changes made make this article more neutral and unbiased then it was before previous edits." If I check I see the article omitted different POV's, deleted verified passages, included passages from anonymous websites and turned the article to a more bias Pro-Shugden POV. I'd like to ask you to check that and to give your opinion or to collaborate if there is a need for improving the article, so that we can have an unbiased, neutral, well-informed article which fairly presents all POV's. Thank you very much, --Kt66 (talk) 19:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
