→What about interlinking instead?
:Theopedia contacted CARMpedia (when it began) about combining efforts since there seemed to be considerable commonality in perspective. There was no interest from CARMpedia in doing so at that time. Theopedia has a significant amount of content and invites participation -- however, a preference for the Protestant (Reformed) perspective will likely keep Theopedia as a separate wiki. Respectfully, ''Gomarus at Theopedia'', [[User:65.168.235.36|65.168.235.36]] 20:44, 2 Jan 2006 (EST)
::Good point. A way around that however would be to have wiki that can cover all view points, however individual articles within it could be specific to a particular perspective - for example, you could write an article on '''Salvation (Reformed view)''' under the main article [[Salvation]]. --[[User:203.26.206.130|203.26.206.130]] 06:55, 18 February 2006 (EST)
== What about interlinking instead? ==
What I think would be better is that if all the mentioned wikis would interlink between each other. Moving all the content to a single Wiki at this point would be a huge undertaking! atleast with interlinks, each site can grow in their specific areas. --[[User:Ymmotrojam|Ymmotrojam]] 15:29, 30 December 2005 (GMT)
:One of the problems I see with interlinking between different wikis, is that once you link out of a wiki (say WikiChrisitan into Wikible) then all the new links are in the new wiki (Wikible in this case, and not WikiChristian). --[[User:203.26.206.130|203.26.206.130]] 06:52, 18 February 2006 (EST)
::I'm not sure I completely follow you. The whole point would be to have different wikis interlinked... WikiChristian could link to Theopedia and Wikible for example, and Theopedia and Wikible could link back to WikiChristian. --[[User:Ymmotrojam|Ymmotrojam]] 09:47, 19 February 2006 (EST)
== Common licensing ==
I think one thing that each site could consider doing the same, would be a common licensing schema. I, the creator of [http://www.wikible.org Wikible], personally prefer the [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html GNU Free Documentation License]. I do know though that other sites use different licenses or no license at all. My thinking about spiritual matters is that it should be free, and should remain free (free as in freedom), thus the reason why I like the GNU/FDL. --[[User:Ymmotrojam|Ymmotrojam]] 01:14, 3 Jan 2006 (EST)
:Just to add to the above, using the GNU/FDL allows content to be copied from other Wikis with the same license. It would be a violation of the GNU/FDL to copy from say Wikipedia, to a Wiki that had no license or a different one... --[[User:Ymmotrojam|Ymmotrojam]] 01:18, 3 Jan 2006 (EST)
