tantek is checking things the newsletter links to now
#
tantek already found two empty pages
#
tantek gets to wikifying
#
aaronpk empty pages??
#
aaronpk oh events!
#
tantek I'm on it

#
ancarda tantek: to move our discussion from the general channel, do you think it’s worth adding anything regarding political affiliation to the code of conduct? My question was more if that is covered by “politics” and “ideology” being already listed?
#
tantek I'm honestly not sure
#
tantek nor how we would word it to both protect less-privileged groups, and yet still make it clear that hate groups don't get to hide behind such a protection, e.g. no Nazis (unlike Twitter's pathetic excuses here)

tantek summertime--
#
Loqi summertime has -1 karma
#
ancarda Yeah, that’s difficult to get right. Perhaps something like “any group that sees a particular set of people to be inferior”?
#
tantek ancarda, it feels like a risky area to innovate. do you know of any other communities (particularly technical) that have a CoC with such a clause?
#
ancarda For the record, I only wanted to provide some additional feedback as on the feedback page you said “Anticipated problem? Or Under/unreported?” in regards to discrimination due to political affiliation
#
tantek any feedback / analysis / insight welcome for sure
#
tantek especially on open issues like that

#
tantek newsletter linked wiki pages looking pretty good
#
tantek hmm should we announce the 4th anniversary of HWC in the newsletter somehow?
#
aaronpk like besides writing a post and syndicating to indienews?
#
tantek was just considering that
#
tantek I feel like I dropped the ball on at least posting a note about it
#
aaronpk if you didn't want to write it on your own site I suppose you could syndicate a wiki page to indienews ?
#
tantek hey are RSVPs officially open for IWC Austin?
#
aaronpk yes!
#
tantek like do we have an indie event page that can receive indie RSVPs?
#
tantek that's worthy of writing a post to announce if Manton hasn't already
#

Loqi IndieWebCamp Austin
#
tantek and indienewsing it
#
tantek just verbed indienews lol
#
tantek we have mere minutes right?
#
tantek here goes a HWC post
#
tantek a little late but there it is http://tantek.com/2017/328/t2/fourth-anniversary-hwc
#
Loqi [Tantek Çelik] This past Monday was the fourth anniversary of the first Homebrew Website Club meetup https://indieweb.org/events/2013-11-20-homebrew-website-club Now regularly hosted in 8 cities worldwide (plus a 9th virtual), Homebrew Website Club meetups continu...
#
tantek guess that'll have to wait til next week's newsletter
#
tantek.com edited /events/2017-11-29-homebrew-website-club (+16) "/* Topics */ Fourth anniversary of" (view diff)
#
tantek there we can talk about / celebrate it during next week's HWC meetups (first regular since the anniversary), and then that can make into the podcast etc.
#
tantek The upcoming events list is looking a bit long and semi-undifferentiated which is making me wonder if we can do something to make the design more "interesting" - like including thumbnail feature-images for each even that has them, in a float left sorta style
#
tantek next HWC has a featured image
#
sknebel the repeated text for HWCs isn't all that elegant either
#
tantek heh the one-off HWC Berlin needs some h-event love
#
sknebel ?
#
tantek try running it through pin13 mf2
#
sknebel the next one? or which?
#
tantek.com edited /events/2017-11-30-homebrew-website-club (+13) "add p-name to avoid default massive p-name" (view diff)
#
sknebel ah, right
#
sknebel not sure where that got lost
#
tantek can you think of a good featured image for HWC Berlin?
#
tantek perhaps a bright photo of the outside of the meetup venue?
#
tantek also feel free to customize the summary/description for any one-off HWC event like that to be specific to the city (Berlin in this case)
#
sknebel yeah, I've been thinking of redoing the page structure a bit, just haven't gotten around to it. and if I understood correctly at least the start of next year they're going to switch to wednesdays again
#
sknebel could use our logo as featured image, I don't think I have a good picture of the venue
#
tantek that works
#
tantek hmm should the pagelogo template make it the featured image of the page
#
tantek ?
#
tantek that would seem to be a reasonable semantic equivalent to apply
#
tantek interesting it is already applying a u-logo class - ok that's good enough
#
tantek u-logo could be a good default to show in such previews, and maybe overridden by u-featured which is likely to be larger / higher fidelity
#
tantek capturing thoughts here: https://github.com/indieweb/this-week/issues/10
#
Loqi [tantek] #10 add featured image thumbnail to upcoming events to distinguish them
#
tantek yes even just adding the image would help
#
tantek we could use the pagelogos for New Wiki Pages in the newsletter too
#
tantek and lastly can we detect / use emojicons or logos as sparkline sized graphics for the Changed Wiki Pages
#
tantek typical use of the "logo" property is expecting a URL to an imag
#
tantek what if the log property had an emoji instead? would consuming code use it?
#

#
tantek *logo property
#
tantek darn it loqi that's not even funny

#
tantek alright, thoughts captured for improving this week: https://github.com/indieweb/this-week/issues/11 and https://github.com/indieweb/this-week/issues/12
#
Loqi [tantek] #11 consider showing logo (if any) for New Wiki Pages
