User talk:Navigator~enwikiversity

Hi Navigator! (Is it Tania?) I'm very encouraged you are doing the work you are doing, and also that you found my work relevant (which is what I hope to do - reach out to as many people as possible in this fascinating environment). I also have a strong interest in development for what it's worth - and as for knowledge management, wikis are exciting tools, not just for the management of knowledge but its collaborative production. :-) I am very interested in exploring these themes more - we should definitely set up a few shared workspaces here on Wikiversity. Some that immediately spring to mind are Networked research (or Using blogs and wikis in research) and Knowledge management - but perhaps we can clarify exactly what aspects of these we want to explore collaboratively and break into specific pages. Even a bibliography would be a useful resource - for wiki-related research, the excellent Wiki Research Bibliography should be your first stop, if you haven't been there already. I've loads more to say, but perhaps it would be good to continue this discussion iteratively and help each other along. :-) Good to meet you! Cormaggio talk 11:18, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Cormaggio! Yes, it is Tania, nice to meet you! I am so happy to have stumbled here. It would be great to set up a workspace for us to collaborate in this topic of Knowledge Management. There are several components of Knowledge Management and my main focus will be on the KM Systems and KM Tools. I think it is important to point out the Knowledge Transfer Challenges through technology which links very much so to User Skills. I see you have opened a new page for Knowledge Management. I am finishing up a summary and will upload the info soon. I want to focus not only on Knowledge Management, but also on how it contributes to Local and Regional Development (LRD). I have so much to say about all of this. Sorry for the late reply, the connections here have been very slow in the past few days, but I am here now. I also have some references, is it possible for me to list them, if so, should I list them in the Bibliography page you mentioned in your posts? Look forward working with you and everyone else!

 * Hi Tania, those pages I gave links to don't exist yet (that's why they're red). Please feel free to create any of these pages and add your info - though I was thinking about making a workspace, rather than for you having to create a page explaining all about what knowledge management is (though that would be useful too!). What I'm thinking of is using Wikiversity to facilitate our learning - learning through questioning, discussing, forming research questions, collating interesting links. If there are going to be several pages on knowledge management, then it might be best to manage these in an "organiser" page like Topic:Knowledge management. You can add papers to that bibliography I linked to - provided the papers are specifically about wikis - and we can also get a knowledge management bibliography or other together in Wikiversity. Also, can you activate your email address through your preferences? It would be handy to be able to send you some papers. Cormaggio talk 15:59, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi again! Yes, you are right, it would be usefull to create this workspace so we have this space for developing content on KM and its component. How do we create a workspace? I have developed many workspaces through open source content management systems, but never used wiki before. I also have some papers to share and lots of references. Let me know how do we proceed. BTW, my e-mail address is activated! :) Navigator


 * Ah, by "workspace", I simply mean "a page". :-) And for it to be most practical, it would have to be specifically titled to reflect the focus of the workspace - otherwise, if we were to use the page Knowledge management as a workspace for using wikis in research, then other people who are interested in knowledge management might feel like it is too specific in focus, and leave it alone. I think Knowledge management is a good page to develop a good introduction to the subject, and Topic:Knowledge management is a good page to organise all the materials and activities around KM - and one of these activities that it would link to would be something like Using wikis for knowledge management. Pages in the "main namespace" (ie without a prefix like Topic:, School:, Portal:, etc) are for learning resources, projects, workspaces, whatever you want to call them (see Namespaces). A lot of Wikiversity pages are tending towards encyclopedia articles and/or textbooks, but it is much more appropriate for Wikiversity to be developing these pages as collaborative learning projects - see eg. Portal:Education/Wikiversity model. Cormaggio talk 18:40, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Navigator. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Navigator~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:44, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
