microformat

Hi,

You said you could offer assistance in microformats. There is a page where they could be very present : the main page or Current events page... Maybe new templates can be developed for a more clever calendar.

Sure. I'll have a think, how best to do this. Pigsonthewing 20:34, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

What do you think of the date format used in: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Mappa_Mercia&oldid=435946#Next_Group_Meet-ups_.26_Micro_Mapping_Events ?

OSM for the blind

Hi,

you have renamed my project-page from "OSM for the blind" to "OSM for blind people" - Don't you think this needs some discussion first? After all you have not only renamed a wiki page, but a project!

your page? Pigsonthewing 20:31, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Did you see any other contributors to this page other than me? Or do you expect me to hide a big relevant topic like accessibility as a subpage under my user page? Lulu-Ann

Do you think you can personally own a big relevant topic like accessibility? Pigsonthewing 23:11, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

I "own" a bundle of projects called "OSM for the blind", with Lorodux, Haptorender, blindOSM and blindmap. You would not rename ohter person's software projects, would you? As long as you contributions are reduced on renaming a title and my contributions are 90% of all page changes, I don't think you will overtake. And I am sorry to say that, accessibility is not a "big relevant topic" in OSM yet, BECAUSE I am one of few mappers that are aware of it. If it WAS a big relevant topic already, then there would be many more edits by others. Please join. If you think you need a general page "OSM for blind people" with content other than my projects, you are welcome to fill it with content! :-) --Lulu-Ann 14:50, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
