Tardis talk:Community Portal

What exactly is the purpose of this page, and how is it different from the Panopticon? Should this be merged with the Panopticon (so that the sidebar reads "Main Page, Panopticon, Current events...")? --Josiah Rowe 21:27, 25 Feb 2005 (GMT)


 * I intended the Panopticon to be a more specific community page, this site's counterpart to Wikipedia's Village Pump. I saw the Community portal as being a more general site map to the wiki community. Memory Alpha seems to have skipped the Community portal and has a link going directly to their Village Pump equivalent, Ten Forward, but I felt this wasn't as helpful to newcomers.

 * Ah, that makes sense. (I've been mainly a reader of Wikipedia, not an editor, so wasn't as familiar with the Village Pump as with Memory Alpha's Ten Forward.) --Josiah Rowe 22:28, 25 Feb 2005 (GMT)
