Welcome!
The Melbourne-wiki is a city-wiki for the friends and inhabitants of Melbourne, Victoria in Australia.

It provides

• pages about Melbourne.
• a message-board called talk, good for first hi’s, half-cooked ideas, news of the day, etc.
• a calendar to announce events on.
• a face to commonly tell the public what’s up in the Melbourne-wiki which is syndicated to pages named wiki-net faces of wikis in our wiki-net.

The Melbourne-wiki has

• (recent) changes.
• a wiki-node pointing to our neighborhood.
• pages of special importance.

The sand-box is to try odd-wiki out. Read short wiki instructions in it. It’s recommended to take a look at the messages from odd-wiki before editing.

The Melbourne-wiki sits in the odd-wiki-hive and runs on the free open source Oddmuse wiki software.

The Melbourne-wiki replaces the original Melbourne-wiki

The domain for the original Melbourne-wiki expired in 2008-08. The Melbourne-odd-wiki which was thought to be a support for it has been renamed to Melbourne-wiki. Data from the original Melbourne-wiki has been retrieved from the internet archive and copied into the new city-wiki for Melbourne.

You find multiple queries including Melbourne related µblogging activities into the Melbourne-wiki. The links on our web-site list for websites about Melbourne point to their home pages in the Melbourne-wiki where the feeds for the sites get included into.

The Melbourne-odd-wiki is up and running

The Melbourne-odd-wiki starts as a support-wiki for http://www.melwiki.com which uses the Mediawiki software (in 2008-08 www.melwiki.com has been given up, in 2009-03 the Melbourne-odd-wiki has been renamed to Melbourne-wiki). It is centered on the functions of the day-page-sets and provides a message board called talk, a face to the public and a calendar to announce events on.

Melbourne ting

MattisManzel:
It’s been a while that I’ve been trying on collaborative online editing sessions in real-time called ting. See the day-page-set collab-editor-wiki - tings. Some more information is on the page 'wiki-net' - wiki-net ting. Today it came to my mind that I can create a day-page-set for local tings in whatever wiki in the wiki-net and I first did so in the Melbourne-wiki - Melbourne ting.

All we’d need is to appoint for a first Melbourne ting, meet (in real-time) and do some Melbourne text jamming. Topic proposals are welcome for tings but they actually often develop their own dynamics. It’s fun, I promise! Melbourne ting?

Try it out on the page MeetingWords - Melbourne ting. Make sure to check the time slider up to the right.
