This instance provides a wiki service which only users of this lemmy can use. If you want a wiki for your community or your account or whatever, feel free to use it

This instance currently allows new community creation, however the following subjects are explicitly not allowed as communities.

Nothing positive or promoting cryptocurrency, blockchain or NFTs
Nothing extreme-right-wing. This includes conspiracy theories, SovCit, Pro-Police, AnCaps etc. We'll know it when we see it, don't test us!
No anti-science topics.
No Tankie shit.
No TERFs.
No Porn.

Preferably you'll stay within the topics endorsed by this instance (see first line)

Note that you are expected to attempt to create an active community and not just squat on a name. Inactive communities will be purged after receiving a warning.

Find us on Matrix and regale us with your tales of adventure!

When going to other communities, respect their rules AND our rules when they are more restrictive. Do not give cause for others to de-federate our instance please.

Est-ce que c'est quelque chose qu'il serait souhaitable/intéressant de mettre en place sur jlai.lu ?

Two days ago, I deployed the official wiki for lemmy.dbzer0.com. It's using django-wiki as a software, which other than being markdown-based and therefore helping lemmings easily migrate documentation over, provides python hooks for doing some really cool stuff.

For example my current version is tied to my lemmy instance. This means that while everyone can read the wiki, only registered users of my instance can edit articles. This helps prevents the usual problem of open wikis, which is drive-by spam articles, and ensures that only people with interest in the wiki can use it.

I plan to extend this integration in the future. I am thinking things like minimum account age to edit all or some pages, profile pages which enable even tighter integrations, being able to specify "trusted instances" which would allow edits from their users as well, and so on.

But that's not all, the same approach I used, can also be used to integrate with any fediverse software, like mastodon. This means each instance could theoretically have its own wiki to extend the information adjacent to it.

I'll soon (I hope) will provide an ansible playbook that anyone can use to deploy it which will also provide my custom code to integrate with lemmy.

I am excited to announce that I have just finished deploying a new wiki service tied to lemmy.dbzer0.com.

https://wiki.dbzer0.com (Ignore the certificate errors for now, it some leftovers from the downtime yesterday. Will be fixed soon)

The most cool part of this setup, is that while anyone can read, only users who have an account in lemmy.dbzer0.com can edit. This should nicely prevent spammers from causing issues, and can help us tie edits to accounts here. if your account gets banned in lemmy.dbzer0.com, you also lose access to edit the wiki as well!

To manage that, you simply need to register an account on the wiki, then write that account on your bio here. The frontpage of the wiki provides the relevant instructions.

So if you needed a place to add official pages about your community with info, now you have the place!
