We hope that the PTypes typology will become a part of the Creative Commons.

You can add your name and/or screen name, here, if you like:

  • Dave Kelly, Admin


To do

  • The definitions, synonyms (not the full text), and analogous terms could be copied from PTypes. And the ideas behind Oldham's characteristics for each type could be added, like I did with Conscientious.
  • Then, it looks like the thing to do is to "Wikify" as many concepts and terms as possible, like we did with the Noteworthy Examples.
  1. Admin only Log in
  2. Write down your password.
  3. On this page: image_logo_url put just the url for the logo that you want in the upper left corner of your wiki.

Other optional things to do

  • Control the rights of anonymous and logged in users through the Control Panel (which can be found in the toolbox on the left side of this page).
  • Add the url for your wiki to the Categorized wiki list. Simply edit that page and put your wiki under the appropriate category.
  • To increase the amount of space you have for uploads, add links to http://editthis.info from external sites, and go to the Link Quota Page to increase your uploads quota.
  • Edit MediaWiki:Sidebar to change the navigation menu
  • Add this wiki to some external wiki indexes:
  1. Wikipedia list of wikis
  2. WikiIndex
  • If you are feeling adventurous and know a little about web design you can edit the javascript and css to the Header to change the look of your wiki.
    • You must log as admin to do this
    • Whatever you enter in this page will be added to the html in the header after the standard style sheet, so you can override styles.
  • Read the User's Guide for other usage and configuration help.
  • Add your wiki to the map of wikis
  • Add a message to the Feedback Page if you see anything that could be improved.
