Tests on color coding edits to red flag potentially dubious content will be used on some smaller sites in the Wikia community, according to the site's co-founder.
Article: http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/searc...,1/article.htmlThis is an odd article. The language leaves some ambiguity but it seems to call JW "co-founder" without any reference to who else might have been a founder. It also seems to possibly be saying Anthere is a co-founder. It refers to a co-founder than never uses the word in a sentence with a specific person. t also seems to treat WP and Wikia as one "community."
If Jimbo can't seem to extricate himself from the conflict of interest that is Wikipedia/Wikia, then why should the media be expected to make that cognitive leap? When Jimbo sends a cease and desist note on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation, it comes from a Wikia.com e-mail address. The two are one, folks.
