IWDiscordRelay <k​aeldra#8403> @tantek re: line breaks at clauses, Several Short Sentences About Writing employs that for the whole book, makes it like a prose poem

IWDiscordRelay <k​aeldra#8403> Your perceptions as you’ve gathered them."
#
IWDiscordRelay <k​aeldra#8403> Asserting the facts as you understand them,

[tantek] wikify << Tip: when adding prose to the wiki, consider adding semantic linebreaks, at both sentence terminators, and after long clauses, per https://rhodesmill.org/brandon/2012/one-sentence-per-line/

Loqi ok, I added "Tip: when adding prose to the wiki, consider adding semantic linebreaks, at both sentence terminators, and after long clauses, per https://rhodesmill.org/brandon/2012/one-sentence-per-line/" to the "See Also" section of /wikifying https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=86173&oldid=85887

[tantek] capjamesg, any photos or screenshots of your talk from the weekend?
#
[tantek] Or even a "featured" cover slide? Could use that as a photo on the event: https://events.indieweb.org/2023/01/decentralized-website-communication-with-webmention-49Mvf9ZDUHzk so it looks nicer (like the HWCs) on the Newsletter

[tantek] does this Wikipedia article need broadening? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Reader

#
[KevinMarks] I would think so, though unless you're careful it will get afd'd - Nuzzel would count as well as our own tools in that direction
