Over the years, I've seen two general approaches to trying to launch a new Wikimedia site. The first is trying to come up with a *new* idea for a wiki. They start discussion on here or meta and typically it dies out because people lose interest in trying to flesh out a new project. The second approach that I've seen used is trying to get the Foundation to "adopt" some existing project. This also tends to fail as people get caught up over specifics (licensing, etc) and then lose interest. Or it gets said that Wikimedia is not a "host*" for projects. I'm curious to know, how does one start a new project in Wikimedia anymore? -Chad _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
