'''''"wikify" ?'''''

Cross-link related wiki pages to each other;
fix broken text formatting; change the old RemoteWikiLinks syntax to the new InterWiki syntax, etc.

Today DebianWiki is running KwikiDotThreeSix, so today we're using the [http://kwiki.org/?KwikiFormattingRules wiki:Self:KwikiFormattingRules].

DebianWiki was started in (does anyone remember?) as an experiment in collaborative authorship.

What license is this Wiki under?

See [http://wiki.debian.net/copyright.html DebianWiki Copyright].

Most importantly, ["DebianWikiIsNotGFDL"].

What is the status on moving this wiki to wiki.debian.org?

There is no current proposal to move the wiki to debian.org. The current owner, MichaelIvey, would be happy to transfer ownership to Debian, if Debian ever decides they would like that.

Where can people help to make this a better wiki?

What are your plans with this wiki? (roadmap)

I, MichaelIvey, have no current plans. The wiki is. I cleanup spam, and upgrade ["Kwiki"] when I think about it.

I suggest change to MediaWiki and create Linux / Debian Wiki Encyclopedia. Please see HelpMoveDebianWikiToMediaWiki if you are really interested.
