2 february 2003 No pages StrategicGroup, Life, Death yet!!! --RobertJasiek 30 january 2003 Moved to Advertising On SL Discussion --Dieter 20 December 2002 Charles Continuing the same thought - when people arrive here at the Tour Bus Stop, I think we shouldn't assume that they are in search of the rules of Go, first of all. So, should there be an introduction on the general cultural and historical level to link from there? (Well, should there be something not already provided?) 15 December 2002 evpsych: Um, some obvious links for total beginners, like rules, on the front page, please. And local go clubs and servers, too. Stefan: "Beginner at go? Go to the BeginnerStudySection". Local clubs nor servers belong on the home page, IMHO. Charles Is there a case for an Absolute Beginners page? unkx80: Isn't basic rules of Go the "absolute beginners" page? Charles There might be scope for a short preliminary introduction for those who find there way here, not even knowing the kind of thing Go is. A very basic 'welcome'. 13 december 2002 Dieter: It seems that the popularity of Kanazawa Tesuji Series is inversely proportional (?) to its difficulty level. In a week's time, the only attempt at solving one of the ten exercises posted, came from unkx80. On the whole, exercises on any subject (such as Capturing Race Exercises) which I would expect to enjoy an enormous popularity, pass their time undiscussed until scrolling off RecentChanges ejects them into oblivion. Should I stop posting Kanazawa... or is there a chance that people are making serious attempts solving it without using the edit option ? And how about those other exercises ? Anyone from the silent majority ? unkx80: Please do continue to post the Kanazawa series. Admittedly they are hard but they are very interesting. However for my case I have seen a number of the problems you have posted and so it makes no point for me to post my attempts which would be the actual solution itself. As for some of the other Kanazawa problems I attempted without clicking the Edit page option. And by the way I have yet to figure out how to solve Kanazawa Problem 88. =) dnerra: I must admit that the Kanazawa Tesuji Series probably didn't get past my filters when browsing through RecentChanges, at least most of the times... However, now that I look at them again, they look really nice. (I remember trying a few without hitting the Edit button.) So, further problems are definitely welcome! On the other hand, I feel that goproblems.com is much more suitable for TsumeGo problems. It's rather less work for the poster, the interactivity makes it really more attractive for the solver, and in many cases he gets feedback on many wrong attempts to solve the problem (because it is so much easier to add variations there). Also, you can easily pick problems that fit your strength. Probably SL is more suitable for fuseki problems and similar stuff, that require some discussion beyond a variation tree. 2002-12-08 Charles Expanding on Bill's comment from two days ago - signed contributions are encouraged here. That's not the case on every wiki, it seems. But we like personalised talk, and we like to know the provenance of comments (especially technical talk). It should follow that signed comments (including home pages) are treated respectfully. Everything that goes on here does so by permissions and access - not by veto nor by the defence of personal territory. I don't see much abuse, and I think that even best-selling authors accept copy-editing (so we all should). 'Work in progess' is the accepted way of reserving space, I believe. 06-12-2002
Bill: When I came back after a hiatus, I found that a lot of pages I had contributed to had been edited. A few times material that I had referred to had been moved or eliminated, so that what I said did not make so much sense. Fortunately, I was able to make links or resurrect the old material from the archived page.
Editors, please be careful about such things. As a good example, Charles Matthews (I suppose), moved some material from Order of Play Discussion, but inserted the appropriate link where I referred to it. Thanks, Charles! :-) 06-12-2002 Confused: I had the urge to copy to the page about Nakayama Noriyuki an anecdote about him Dave Sigaty put on another page. Is this the right place to put such things?
Charles Matthews The People pages are there to be used - or linked to. It seems to be WikilyCorrect to say the way to use them will emerge, rather than be prescribed. 2002 December 6 SAS: I suggest that we try to use the new URLs for David Carlton's pages, rather than the old (stanford.edu) ones which may cease working sometime next year. When the old URLs stop working, someone is going to have to go through and fix them all, so the fewer we have the better. (To convert the old URLs to the new ones, replace "math.stanford.edu/~carlton/go" with "www.gobooks.info".) Arno: I can do a search&replace in the wiki database. Would save you the trouble of going through it manually... Charles Please. But if that's possible, shall we wait? Arno: should be done now - 50 pages affected. Replaced 'math.stanford.edu/~carlton/go' with 'www.gobooks.info'. Charles Thanks, Arno. Discussions on the following topics have now a separate page: August 25, 2001: I have done a WikiMasterEdit of this page. See old version (v71). Unsolved issues and recent postings remained here. Technical stuff moved back to GuineaPigsFeedback. Created some new discussion pages on a clearly defined topic. --DieterVerhofstadt 2002-11-02: The 2001 contents of this page (from version 193) have been transferred to Meta Discussion 2001 -- Hu 2003-01-30: The January 2002 through December 4, 2002 contents of this page have been transferred to Meta Discussion 2002 -- Hu This is a copy of the living page "Meta Discussion" at Sensei's Library. ![]() |
