[social] WordPress is singular author, unless using a plug-in. They are working on collaborative posts with roles, but have been finding the reality of how difficult that is. This is something I’ve worked on a lot over the last 25+ years and it has so many gotchas and complications to think and work through.

#
[tantek] [social] I feel multiauthor is not rocket science i.e. copy Mediawiki UX for it and be done?
#
[tantek] what is guest blogging
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "guest blogging" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "guest blogging is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] huh, that was also a thing
#
[tantek] guest blogging is /guest_blog

#
Loqi ok
#
[tantek] collaborative blogging << guest blogging
#
Loqi ok, I added "[[guest blog]]" to the "See Also" section of /collaborative_blogging https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=106976&oldid=106974

#
[social] [tantek] the multiauthor collaborative posts get challenging when drafting, editing, and structure changes. Comments in edits aren’t bad when it is two people, but more than three it can be a mess.
#
[social] The backend support for tracking multi-level threading and edits across time, which may contradict other comments takes working through. But, those situations from a UI perspective become an issue for dealing with space on the screen and how to surface relevance and depth / volume of feedback and interactions.
