Talk:Activities/unendorsed

Rationale for this compromise

This is a wiki. The question here is not, what is the right decision. If everybody holds out for their version right decision, we have a permanent edit war. The question is, what is a compromise I can live with. And since, as they say on wikipedia, we have plenty of time before the publication deadline, any argument based on setting the right/wrong precedent is moot - there's time to deal with the next situation when it happens. Everything is provisional, and there's no slopes too slippery to climb back to the top of.

Right now the status quo is separate Activities and Activities/unendorsed pages, with text on the Activities page to say don't delete unendorsed activities and text on the unendorsed page to say that this is not meant to imply that other activities are endorsed. If you died now, before you could get to the edit link on the wiki, would you want your shade to come back and haunt people until they fixed it to what you want? Homunq 13:02, 17 January 2008 (EST)

This is negative, not positive. It's an activity-I-do-not-like getto. Be positive instead: create a page to list your top 10 favorite activites. AlbertCahalan 20:36, 17 January 2008 (EST)

I agree with the motives of the person who created this page but disagree with their methods. Standard and optional Activities should be listed on the same page. People interested in the project should have all the relevant information easily accessible, especially what software the XO is capable of running. Trying to hide some programs on separate pages is disingenuous. LeeColleton 04:35, 18 January 2008 (EST)

Since people will keep deleting DOOM from Activities, this might be a good place for these. Crazy-chris 05:57, 18 January 2008 (EST)

I think that this is a reasonable compromise. The other possibility would be to start a new wiki (at wikia?) that would document all of the "unapproved" uses of the XO. BlankVerse 15:44, 19 January 2008 (EST)
