I must admit this is an area I'm not highly conversant in yet, but I do know that they are gaining in popularity.  We've had a couple of people make requests on the [http://lists.uua.org/mailman/listinfo/websters Websters] UUA list and so far this is what I've been able to find [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Syndication_feeds regarding RSS being incorporated into MediaWiki].

Hi Neal,
  
Do you have plans to activate RSS (and possibly other) feeds in the UUWiki? --[[User:LoriSir|LASS]] 09:19, 26 Jul 2004 (CDT)

I streamlined the wiki pages for UUBF-L in the process of adding more content today. Should I talk with you, or Jim, or someone else about deleting pages?
  
:Good pointer!  As noted at that link, it is working for the [http://www.uuism.net/uuwiki/index.php/Special:Recentchanges Recent changes] and [http://www.uuism.net/uuwiki/index.php/Special:Newpages New pages] pages, and they seem to work fine here.  For more info on RSS see [http://www.faganfinder.com/search/rss.shtml] --[[User:NealMcB|NealMcB]] 15:10, 26 Jul 2004 (CDT)

Sorry I don't know the protocol for discussion pages. When I go to edit UU Money I only get a blank page and my post goes to the bottom. I don't know how yours went to the top. I don't know how to edit out the list and put it on the article page. If you can do that, that would be appreciated or you could tell me how to do it. [[User:JoyceD|JoyceD]] 13:21, 4 Aug 2004 (CDT)

Thanks for the nice welcome on my UUser talk page!  To answer your question... actually I don't have an answer. I can't remember where I first linked to UUwiki from.  One of the comments left to a Jihad-related site. ;)
  
:Thanks for your contribution Joyce - the text was great.  I know this system is very new to most people and I  didn't mean to sound critical or authoratative, if I did. Just trying to lend some insight from experience in similar situations.  If you click on "edit" you edit the whole page.  If you click on "+" your contribution is appended to the end.  To move things from one page to another, you can just "cut" it from one (typically with the "edit" menu or control-x) and "paste" it into the other. If you don't want to do it, that's fine (that's one of the beauties of the "wiki way").  I or someone else probably will.  I've loved the way others took my contributions and edited/expanded/changed them.

In regards to articles about organizations, are there any yet that I could work off of? Also do you think such an article should go into the history of the group or just focus on the form it exists in today? ♥ [[UUser:Jedi liz|Jedi liz]] 13:38, 17 Apr 2005 (CDT)
  
::When I'm on [http://www.uuism.net/uuwiki/index.php/User_talk:NealMcB this discussion page], there is no edit tab at the top - that is also true of other discussion pages that have already been started. I see only the name of the main page ("user page" in this case), discussion, +, move, and history. There are edit links in the sections I can click on, but none at the top. Am I doing something wrong? [[User:JoyceD|JoyceD]] 18:08, 8 Aug 2004 (CDT)

Thank you for your message. I have setup the "Social Networking" page under my user page because I am not ready to release it for now. I try to recruit 2 or 3 people that can help me to improve its content. Once it will be more mature I'd like to have a discussion about where it should go and, if it is pertinent to keep it on the uuwiki.
  
:Oh dear.  I'm guessing that your browser is not happy with the css (cascading style sheet) that mediawiki uses. Click on the "preferences" tab and then "skin" and try picking a different look-and-feel.  Or this link should let you edit thiis page: [http://www.uuism.net/uuwiki/index.php?title=User_talk:NealMcB&action=edit]. In general note that to edit a page, just add &action=edit to the end of the URL for the page.  The "monobook" css used in mediawiki is discussed at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Monobook.css].  What version of which browser do you  use? --[[User:NealMcB|NealMcB]] 21:08, 8 Aug 2004 (CDT)

If you have any feedback for me, this is the right place to put it.

When a page like this (a user's "talk" page) is modified, "You have new messages" is automatically displayed on all pages that the user views, until he or she views his/her user page.

deleting pages?

Hi Neal,

I streamlined the wiki pages for UUBF-L in the process of adding more content today. Should I talk with you, or Jim, or someone else about deleting pages?

Hello Neal!

Thank you for your message. I have setup the "Social Networking" page under my user page because I am not ready to release it for now. I try to recruit 2 or 3 people that can help me to improve its content. Once it will be more mature I'd like to have a discussion about where it should go and, if it is pertinent to keep it on the uuwiki.

Once again, thank you for your message
