| + | '''Stop looking at the statistics...''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | I just looked at the statistics concerning this site. Other than myself, there was one visitor yesterday, and two the day before. It's too depressing. I should avoid looking at the statistics and just keep concentrating on developing content. All the same... | ||

| + | '''English Google and French Google''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | It occured to me recently that this site is probably only listed on French Google, not on the English Google. When we were in the States last summer, I discovered that the home page of the [http://conviviality.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Encyclopedia] site was unlisted there, whereas it had been listed in France. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When I try to connect to http://google.com I get automatically redirected to http:google.fr. Is there some way I can prevent the redirect? | ||

| + | '''[[ReFactoring]] the [http://conviviality.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Encyclopedia]''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Today I [[ReFactoring|refactored]] the [http://conviviality.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Encyclopedia] website. It needed simplifying. I'm also going to rewrite the Home Page to profit from the lessons I've learned about Google. The new Home Page of the [http://conviviality.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Encyclopedia] will be a long summary of what is on the site, with links to every article. That way at least the Home Page should pop up regularly when people are searching Google, and thus get visited from time to time. | ||

Once the blog page gets into the Google listings, people who click on the link will always go to the same page, and will thus see the new content added to the top of the page. Whereas if you create a new page, there is little chance that it will get listed on Google, which means no one will ever see it. | Once the blog page gets into the Google listings, people who click on the link will always go to the same page, and will thus see the new content added to the top of the page.

| + | '''More [[ReFactoring]] of this site''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Today I again [[ReFactoring|refactored]] this website. I transfered onto it all of the [[Open Design]] material that was on the [http://ctwiki.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Wiki]. I am also creating a category for [[Convivial Tools]], which will summarize the articles on the [http://ctwiki.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Encyclopedia]. The present website thus becomes the hub of all of my internet activity. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I plan to delete from the [http://ctwiki.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Wiki] all of the material that I have moved here. The [http://ctwiki.ouvaton.org Convivial Tools Wiki] might then start with a clean slate as a real wiki to build on what is presented herein. | ||

'''But my "WhyClublet" article got booted off Wikipedia''' | '''But my "WhyClublet" article got booted off Wikipedia''' | ||
| − | + | My [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhyClublet WhyClublet] article got deleted by a Wikipedia administrator called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Marasmusine Marasmusine], for failing to meet [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:WEB notability guidelines for web content]. I had also created a page called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Drake Richard Drake], which I redirected to WhyClublet (the redirect was left in place). I pointed out that WhyClublet founder Richard Drake was ''notable'' as one of the original WikiReductionists, who were historically the first group anywhere to deliberately delete other peoples' articles from a wiki (from WikiWikiWeb in this case). The article about the first person to delete articles from a wiki was just deleted from a wiki (from Wikipedia in this case). | |

The second command goes in php.ini (where's that?) and the third command goes in the MediaWiki Local Settings file (that one I know), but what about the first one?
