Wikipedia

Jon, looks like you made quite a few friends at Wikipedia. The beauty of Centiare is that the directory space was specifically created for APOV articles. In fact, the whole point of Centiare is as a legitimate means of boosting Google search rankings via semantic tags, scripts, etc. Snerfling 09:51, 17 May 2007 (PDT)

JA: Yes, Wikipedia is such a gawdawful f(r)iendly place. The fact is that I that never wrote any OR, or POV, or ¬VER articles, and never started any disruptive projects, but they have a wacky way of defining all of those words, making their j'accuses, and then "secreting" the evidence of what you actually did. 'Nuff said. I do intend to contribute some slightly more "creative" content here. Just tell me what spaces you think it belongs to. Jon Awbrey 10:14, 17 May 2007 (PDT)

Selecting your Centiare space should follow this logical path:
  1. Is the subject a legal entity? If yes, Directory space. If you are the legal agent/owner of the entity (your self, your book, your company), fine and dandy. If you are not the legal agent/owner, be advised that they may come along tomorrow or 6 years from now, and claim the space away from you.
  2. If the subject is not a legal entity, do you want others to edit the topic with you? If yes, Main space. If no, a subpage of some "self owned" Directory space or User space.
I hope that this is clear enough. Our world is a little more nuanced than Wikipedia's, but that's what keeps the edit-warring to an absolute minimum here. At Centiare, you can protect and promote your labors. --MyWikiBiz 10:36, 17 May 2007 (PDT)
Main space is reserved for traditional open-access NPOV articles, with all the attendant edit wars, etc. However, there is an exception: if an entry has been formerly published as an academic paper, then it can be protected as an ERB article. We established ERB policy to encourage formal encyclopedias & research publications to publish full articles/excerpts at Centiare. ERB articles are protected from non-author editing + enjoy full copyright protection.
Directory space is APOV by default, plus no one other than original editors (ie "page owners") + Centiare sys ops can edit the pages. Directory listings are no different than if you set up your own wiki - you can doing anything you want within your listing(s), including commercial activities, as long as it's legal.
Here are a couple of examples of on-line virtual businesses running at Centiare:
The advantage of using Centiare's directory space over running your own wiki or using another hosted wiki is that we have all sorts of cool extensions (just gotta get <math> going) & facilities running that Google really seems to love.
