Talk:Solar Cooking Wiki

Things to do

 * Add diagrams to FAQ page. Do they have to be uploaded to Wikia or can we reference the copy in the SC Archive? Try uploading diagrams & photos to Wikia and displaying them on a page.  (Note that very elegant captioning is available.)
 * Decide what to put on the SC Wiki main page, given that only a subset of the SC Archive will be here.
 * Decide which "skin" to use (Monobook, Classic, ??)
 * Develop & document policies. See http://wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Building_a_community for some good ideas.
 * Design the country page. (Use a template?)
 * Experiment with pages in other languages.

Marketing

 * Put a prominent link on the SC Archive.
 * Announce it in the next SCI newsletter.
 * Send emails (to everyone on the contacts list?)

The "Building a Community" Forum says "The admin of a small wiki has three essential tasks -- to welcome new people, to mentor the new contributors and make sure they know how to participate productively, and to encourage communication on talk pages. Everything else is secondary." In other words, the admin's main job is to encourage and facilitate the participation of others.
