I kinda want to insta ban anyone showing up with spam copy/pasta especially if their icon is clearly imageslop
#
[tantek]
Would anyone have any objections to that? I just don't think there's a high chance of values alignment and it's less energy to instaban such folks than trying to sift thru the spamslop

[capjamesg] Just letting you know that your examples in /jf2 lead to your 404 page and the one that doesn't gives an atom feed.

Happy to help! I find a broken link from time to time but I don't know what is "proper" to edit it myself, specially when it is related to another user like this case
#
[capjamesg]
I usually don’t edit others’ listings but might flag if something is broken and the person is active here.
#
[capjamesg]
Keep tagging me if you see anything with my name on it that no longer works.

Can we teach Loqi to respond "sir this is a Wendys" when someone mentions a /fatberg phrase like "SaaS platforms"?

gRegor I was considering a lowercase /schema disambig page for all the various ways people here in chat have used the term in the past 6mo or so. WDYT?
#
gRegor
sounds reasonable. google doesn't have to own the term :)

what is a schema
#
Loqi
A schema in the context of the indieweb typically refers to an explicitly structured way of organizing the various aspects of information used to construct their posts and other content on their site, either informally or specific to their own site like in a custom flat file storage format (perhaps JSON Schema) or a database, or standard microformats vocabularies like h-card, h-entry, [[h-event, and more https://indieweb.org/schema

We might make /JSON_Schema a wikipedia redirect. No updates or indieweb examples since 2018

[tantek]
good call

what is json schema
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "json schema" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "json schema is ____", a sentence describing the term)

ah, guess it makes sense if it follows external redirect

[tantek]
ya Loqi hasn't learned to follow external redirects yet
