Decision-making version of MediaWiki
Dear Sirs,

No doubt MediaWiki is superb platform for collaborative writing and editing. However I am trying to create “decision-making” MediaWiki website to collaborate in resolving social problems on all levels from global to local; a website resembling virtual brain and mind (www.netsmind.org). Doing this I’ve faced two problems: a) incorporation of formal decision-making model (algorithm) to guide collaborative decision-making process and b) set up an option for alternative decisions. (Keep in mind that collaborative decision-making process excludes voting by definition. Voting is an element of collective decision-making process, which is democracy. Opposed opinions are eliminated by voting in favour of majority. In collaborative decision-making process in case of opposed opinions should be elaborated two or three alternative feasible solutions, which will be verified in social practice. So there is no voting mechanism at all).

I’ve incorporated formal decision-making model as contents, instead of template, very unprofessional manor indeed. (I am Psychologist, not Developer or even Webmaster and can’t write templates). The second problem – option for alternative decisions is high above my limited knowledge in this field). Apparently, because of this reason I can’t promote my site.

I hope sooner or later collaborative decision-making platform will be created and could be of interest to your team to write such version of MediaWiki. Perhaps decision-making platform will be new generation of collaborative software, as making-decisions is more complex and complicate process compare with systemising information. I assume writing few specific templates could be the first step to create full such version.

Nevertheless my inquiry is could your team help me referring my case to Developer, who could be interested of creating of decision-making platform and create for me two or three such templates?

Thank you for your time and all you did to create such fantastic platform.

Regards

Feature?
Hello - I am finding it a bit difficult to find the correct place to drop a technical suggestion: the mediawiki software list the timestamp of any edit in the page history, right? Would it be possible to update the software so that in addition (or maybe as an alternative, selected in preferences), the time is given as "X hours, X minutes, X secondas ago"? Cheers and keep up the good work! Ingolfson 08:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
