What do you mean by "this isn't a normal wiki"? -- Best, MarkDilley

Thank you for asking this question. I mean that 'normal' (or common?) wikis are made to store information. This is not for this (or at least, not only for this): it wants to lead people to activity, or let them organize their activity. This wiki is wiki + activity. --Let's 20:36, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

I understand, I think. You are coming to wiki from the Wikipedia model of building an encyclopedia, right? My view of wiki is that it is activity. So I was confused by my perception of the redundancy. My wiki tradition comes from MeatballWiki where I have been messing around since January 2002. :-) I like your intentions, good luck!! Best, MarkDilley

You're right!! I didn't know MeatballWiki, but I'm taking a look at it. Thank you for the link! The activity meant here is maybe more practical, more... for having an effect in the world, also outside the web. Thank you again. Ciao! --Let's 16:45, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Look forward to working with you!! Cheers, MarkDilley

Now I got a better definition: This wiki offers (or wants to offer) the possibility for people to do something in the world, and to collaborate through the web. . I hope the grammar and so on is right. It would be great to collaborate! If you create an account I'll put the news template on your talk page, in order to let you see the current events of the wiki. Thank you again --Let's 19:57, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
