Two of my recent edits, soon reverted by Tantek, were to remove a red link, under the heading "see also" to from:
<http://microformats.org/wiki/show-formats> and from: <http://microformats.org/wiki/showroll-brainstorming> The red link was to: /microshow and had existed since 15/ 16 December 2005 - over 16 months ago The page: <http://microformats.org/wiki/microshow> was created at the same time as those red links: <http://rbach.priv.at/Microformats-IRC/2005-12-16#T092823> but was deleted by Tantek less than one hour later: <http://rbach.priv.at/Microformats-IRC/2005-12-16#T101728> with the edit summary: deleted "microshow": 1. This is a shell page. 2. It is based on a premature *-brainstorming page. 3. It ignores existing media-metadata work. Tantek then noted, on both "/show-brainstroimng" and "/showroll-brainstorming": This page has been prematurely created ... Any microformat about a show, or video, or tv should be worked on within the context of media-metadata-examples, rather than creating new pages for it. <http://microformats.org/wiki?title=show-formats&diff=3340&oldid=3335> I can find no other reference to "microshow" on IRC or the WIki. It was briefly discussed in this December 2005 mailing list thread: <http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2005-December/002292.html> in which Tantek commented: I also noticed this: http://microformats.org/wiki/microshow [...] Please do not create a microformat page for something for which there isn't even a strawman specification in the *-brainstorming page. Shell pages like this one will be deleted.. Can anyone tell me why these red links should remain on the Wiki? What information do they convey, and what purpose do they serve, other than inviting and enticing people to create "/microshow", apparently outside the beloved "process"? -- Andy Mabbett * Say "NO!" to compulsory ID Cards: <http://www.no2id.net/> * Free Our Data: <http://www.freeourdata.org.uk> * Are you using Microformats, yet: <http://microformats.org/> ? _______________________________________________ microformats-discuss mailing list microformats-discuss@microformats.org http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-discuss
