Thread: LucidWiki - the future reference for all things lucid?

I have recently applied for the creation of a 'LucidWiki' wiki at www.wikicities.com. If you are wondering what the heck wiki is, it is a collection of documents that anyone can edit and extend. See www.wikipedia.com for a blinding example. I really do hope that if this application is to be accepted (I cannot see a reason why it should not) that the wiki will become a popular place to share knowledge on the subject.

I will inform you when I get a reply.

For now, can you please comment on the idea, whether it is good or not, whether you think it is to be sucessful, and whether you are willing to contribute.

Thanks.

There is already a wiki on lucid dreaming at wikibooks.com.

EDIT: Being as the wikicities site is currently telling me that "Ce domaine vient d´être enregistré pour l'un de nos clients !" (take that information to heart) i'm not totally sure about the reliability of it either.

Agh! I had the same reply from pasQuale at ld4all. That's mearely one book (and yes I did know of it's existance beforehand). I'm talking about a whole community-based project with seperate articles on everything to do with lding and (I hope, eventaually) a dream journal system.

Edit: I don't know an iota of French. Please translate!

It's the same thing, really.

It ain't in my mind. I've already written a pretty hefty mission statement (in wiki), and it isn't the same thing, it isn't limited to the chapter structure of a book. So there. Naanaa! If you ever become involved in the project (or if the project ever becomes involved), You've just lost the title of King Extraordinaire.

I think it's a good idea though you need to work a lot, or get a bunch of other people to help you, to get enough information there.

Big news! Thanks to good old Angela at lucidcities.com, LucidWiki has eeked an existance. 'Tis nothing, at the moment of course, but someday...

And by the way, please don't touch it yet. I'll cut the ribbon when I feel it has enough backbone.

As such, I'm not going to post a link yet.

Oh, damn!. I actually have my own private wiki anyway that I never use (whee).

Hi. I'm r3m0t, main author of the Lucid Dreaming wikibook at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Lucid_Dreaming (also now at http://snipurl.com/ldwiki!)

Anyway, I think it's quite pointless to not show everybody the wikicity in construction. See the info page and the wikicity itself.

Identity X is IDX.

The last change was on 18 April. There are 8 pages, with a total of 16 edits between them. (See Special:Statistics, Special:Recentchanges.)

In true wiki spirit, IDX has protected the main page as well as the mission statement. (See Special:Log/protect.)

The full list of pages is not extremely easy to obtain, so:
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/Main_Page
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/User:IDX
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/LucidWiki...rticle_Creation
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/LucidWiki...ssion_Statement
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/LucidWiki:News
http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/Category:Info_Pages
(and two pages with the logo)

I have a few questions for IDX at http://lucid.wikicities.com/wiki/LucidWiki...Dreamers_Corner. I would write some more and fill this project in a little, but I need IDX's approval first. He could ban me, after all. Or protect all the pages. Or protect the whole wiki.

PS I created some pages showing the edits I can't make.

I agree that a wiki and wikibook are completely different. Dont see why anything has to be protected though? I think we should encourage people to contribute anything they can.

LucidWiki is now open. I'm fleshing it out a little.

My gracious thanks to r3m0t and apologies for leaving it in a desolate locked waste.

But it's broken at this moment in time. Connection refused. Refuse my butt!

Well, it's a bit more fleshed out now. I'm an admin, too.

The main area of focus is writing about sites. Thus, you may be interested in:

Dream Views
Dream Views corpus (corpus: collection of writings, i.e. the main site but not the forum)
Dream Views forum

Every other article also needs work.

I think that all of us who are involved with WILD should collaborate and start building a lexicon, where appropriate, for all the new concepts, occurences, and phenomena that we are discovering, in order to make WILD easier. What I mean to say is, we should start naming the as of yet unnamed things! This is a new science, remember. Classico's "black hole effect" was a real good one and opened my eyes what other possibilties there might be. LucidWiki could be an invaluable tool.

And, oh yeah, I forgot to tell you guys that I'm Capriccio, the one who messed around with the rule and info pages over the summer.
