I added a link to the OLPC (one laptop per child) site, where they have an entire wiki dedicated to this question. Is it meaningful to also have an effort here? --[[User:Curtbeckmann|CurtB]] 18:35, 21 October 2006 (PDT) | I added a link to the OLPC (one laptop per child) site, where they have an entire wiki dedicated to this question.

:If they are open to having a page on the broader issue of "low cost computers," (rather than just the recently renamed ''Children's Machine'') then you're right, that would be a better place to do it.

If there's a paragraph or more on a topic like this, the {{tl|wikipedia p}} template is good. Otherwise, I think an inline link as in the present article might be better. --[[User:Singkong2005|Singkong2005]] · <small>[[User talk:Singkong2005|talk]]</small> 16:40, 24 October 2006 (PDT) | |||
Revision as of 23:40, 24 October 2006
Link Changes
- Changed some software links to Wikipedia references. Is it better to leave them as Appropedia links and create pages that link to the Wikipedia reference?
- --Kinzer 12:46, 6 September 2006 (PDT)
- Thanks! Re leaving them as Appropedia links - no, definitely better as you've done it. --Singkong2005 talk 01:21, 7 September 2006 (PDT)
competing with wiki.laptop.org?
I added a link to the OLPC (one laptop per child) site, where they have an entire wiki dedicated to this question. Is it meaningful to also have an effort here? --CurtB 18:35, 21 October 2006 (PDT)
- If they are open to having a page on the broader issue of "low cost computers," (rather than just the recently renamed Children's Machine) then you're right, that would be a better place to do it. Do you want to ask them? --Singkong2005 · talk 16:40, 24 October 2006 (PDT)
