hey infominer, just noticing the new pages. appreciate the eagerness to contribute, however please take a look at https://indieweb.org/wikifying#Should_this_be_on_the_wiki
#
[tantek]
nothing about "Web of Trust" or "Rebooting Web of Trust" is directly IndieWeb related, nor are there any examples there that discuss people with their own site
#
[tantek]
This looks like good content, just better to put somewhere else more relevant to those concepts / efforts themselves, and then if there is some "remote" or "indirect" relevance to IndieWeb, better to just link to that somewhere else
#
[tantek]
we're not trying to document "everything" on the IndieWeb wiki. if a topic is strongly relevant / important to you, I suggest creating a page for it on Wikipedia
#
infominer[m]
Just adding relevant links to the topics existing, imo can't talk about indieweb without at least including links for information on web of trust related topics, but I'll stop if my changes get rolled back
#
[tantek]
no there's literally nothing "Web of Trust" or "Rebooting Web of Trust" currently that is directly IndieWeb related
#
infominer[m]
I'm here because I'm All in on decentralized web without the need for central authorities
#
[tantek]
no one on their own site using either
#
[tantek]
that's great
#
infominer[m]
yes there is, actually
#
infominer[m]
on a post I just linked to has webmentions
#
[tantek]
infominer[m] neither page mentions relevance to IndieWeb
#
infominer[m]
ok, sorry I didn't write too much was just organizing links.. but will prepare a sentence(s) explaining the relevance
#
[tantek]
great! if a post supports webmentions, the right place to put it is adding it to this list according to the person who's site it is: https://indieweb.org/Webmention#IndieWeb_Examples
#
infominer[m]
I linked to a pdf on web of trust authored by Phil Zimmerman, that was submitted to the RWoT workshop...
#
infominer[m]
js
#
[tantek]
I know about the concepts "Web of Trust" or "Rebooting Web of Trust" and "Self Sovereign Identity". There is literally no one here using them on their own sites as examples.
#
[tantek]
not "talking about them", literally depending on them to run their own sites
#
[tantek]
we don't document everything possible "decentralized"
#
[tantek]
again, I'd suggest contributing that content to Wikipedia instead of the IndieWeb wiki
#
infominer[m]
well, I don't want to contribute to wikipedia.. but I intend that once I've revised accordingly you will appreciate my contributions..
#
infominer[m]
but I am not likely do add more to the wiki just improve what I already started...
#
[tantek]
that's not really the right order to do things. start with a stub that explains direct relevance to the indieweb in the dfn
#
infominer[m]
indieauth literally is an example of self sovereign identity
#
[tantek]
that's your opinion of IndieAuth
#
infominer[m]
Indieweb supports Self Sovereign Identity
#
infominer[m]
so who's opinion that IndieAuth isn't related to Self Sovereign Identity
#
[tantek]
not really an opinion. it has nothing to do with the "SSI" movement/concept. the people that created IndieAuth, use it, and Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IndieAuth
#
infominer[m]
Im using it for my own self sovereign identity solution on the web for weeks now
#
[tantek]
I'm saying "Self Sovereign Identity" is a made up thing that has nothing to do with IndieAuth per se, it's a renaming of existing stuff.
#
[tantek]
e.g. "Self Sovereign Identity" is not notable enough to even bother with its own Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self_Sovereign_Identity
#
[tantek]
if you think the concept truly matters, please start with a Wikipedia page, because it has no direct relevance to IndieAuth
#
infominer[m]
Well, im not in charge of the wiki, but i know what self sovereign identity is
#
infominer[m]
Thats all im saying
#
[tantek]
all I'm saying is if you know what self sovereign identity is, and you think it's relevant / notable, please start with creating a Wikipedia page for it
#
infominer[m]
Doesnt need to be included, i just contributed as i felt would best serve the community
#
[tantek]
because none currently exists
#
infominer[m]
In my personal area of expertise
#
[tantek]
"would best serve the community" needs to be stuff that is directly IndieWeb related already, not conceptual stuff
#
infominer[m]
I will do thr wikipedia article cause noone else will
#
[tantek]
for such things, links are better
#
[tantek]
that is, feel free document self sovereign identity somewhere else, and then we can link to it from a "other theories of identity" or something similar section on indieweb.org/identity
#
infominer[m]
Anyway, i see indieweb in rwot workshops, and at iiw and among many of that community
#
infominer[m]
But i looked
#
[tantek]
here, there seems to already be documentation about it here: https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Self-Sovereign_Identity
#
[tantek]
why not improve that for now instead?
#
[tantek]
IIW is a great example
#
[tantek]
we don't document all of IIW or even a summary
#
infominer[m]
I will look into this stuff tmm its a wrap 4 me
#
[tantek]
we only document when there are IIW events with directly IndieWeb related sessions that community members participated in / led: https://indieweb.org/Internet_Identity_Workshop
#
[tantek]
if there's a specific RWOT workshop that was titled "IndieWeb" or some direct existing IndieWeb protocol etc., that would be good to similarly link to
#
[tantek]
we just don't need a whole separate page describing RWOT
#
[tantek]
(on the indieweb wiki)
#
[tantek]
It looks like your existing resource https://infominer.id/DIDecentralized/rebooting-web-of-trust/ describes the topic already, along with the sites http://www.weboftrust.info/ and GitHub repo https://github.com/WebOfTrustInfo/ — that's a good "somewhere else" place to move the page you added https://indieweb.org/Rebooting_Web_of_Trust
#
[tantek]
Otherwise since it is a series of conferences on a related but not directly IndieWeb topic, I'd like to restructure https://indieweb.org/Rebooting_Web_of_Trust to be more like https://indieweb.org/Internet_Identity_Workshop
#
[tantek]
Rebooting_Web_of_Trust << TO DO: Move content somewhere more relevant for this topic, then restructure to a minimal structure like the [[Internet Identity Workshop]] page
#
Loqi
ok, I added "TO DO: Move content somewhere more relevant for this topic, then restructure to a minimal structure like the [[Internet Identity Workshop]] page" to the "See Also" section of /Rebooting_Web_of_Trust https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=62012&oldid=62010
#
[tantek]
infominer[m] I did find this on Wikipedia, perhaps you can expand that into its own page there and link to it with Wikipedia's {{main}} template: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_identity#Self-sovereign_identity
#
infominer[m]
Tbh ive been avoiding wikipedia for as long as possible. Im not a fan.
#
infominer[m]
But i will deal w the SSI/DID stuff over there
#
infominer[m]
Tho generally speaking, index needs to be indexed, and linked in as distributed a fashion as possible
#
infominer[m]
Instead of adding to the behemoth, with questionable politics/longevity
#
infominer[m]
Information needs to be indexed*
#
[tantek]
The point is IndieWeb is not trying to be wikipedia. That's also why I linked to the existing https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Self-Sovereign_Identity article as another already existing page for this stuff
#
infominer[m]
Understood, im also aiming for clarity.
#
[tantek]
I'm also an editor on Wikipedia and am happy to help if there's any problem there
#
[tantek]
our /IIW page is a good example of how to keep something big that is separate very *minimal* on the IndieWeb wiki
#
[tantek]
which reminds me I should do the same for the dweb summit pages we've generally been good about, but now that there's been two such events they could be cleaned up and minimized more
#
infominer[m]
Thats really awesome! And makes me feel less overwhelmed, though im not concerned about getting in.
#
infominer[m]
... ill holler in a month or two.... lotta prep/foundational ground to cover
#
[tantek]
succinctness to direct IndieWeb relevance is very important to keeping the IndieWeb wiki usable and on topic
#
[tantek]
did you participate in either DWeb Summit?
#
[tantek]
I found them both very informative
#
infominer[m]
Ok, ill wrap those however needed tomm
#
infominer[m]
Nah, im just getting over to this side of the tracks... though in a lotta closely related spaces
#
infominer[m]
Before i write the wikipedia entry though, im gonna do a good article on indieweb history... in the next week or so
#
infominer[m]
So i can get my foundation over here
#
[tantek]
there's already an article on indieweb related /history and a /timeline - please read those first (and they have some to-do items at the bottom which could use help)

Flouncing isn't really a silo quit though, more a social quit.

Hi [tantek], my question is: when will scholarship applicants be contacted?
#
sknebel
[fluffy]: anyone who wants can go to the front, say hi, show their site or something cool related they've done. "intros" is the key word here
#
[tantek]
Hi Sadik, yes scholarship applicants should all receive an answer by end of week. Also feel free to privately message aaronpk or myself if you like.
#
[tantek]
fluffy, that's a great question and something we could describe better!
