The Wiki Committee's monthly report
Since I just gave this report at an OTW meeting, I thought I would post it here, too. :)
The Wiki Committee is mostly new this year. Our Chair,![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
meri_oddities, is our only member who served the entirety of last year. christycorr joined last summer and cin1607, cordelia_v, and Evelyn Brown are entirely new. We've had a very busy first month!
We've asked Systems to install the Sphinx search engine, as our research has shown that it's the best system available to us now. We are currently working on developing a test plan to test the search engine once it's been installed.
A draft of the "Major Fandoms as Categories" policy has been completed and is ready for Board review, and we've also drafted a policy on images posted to Fanlore (focusing particularly on the question of copyrighted images and explicit images) and this draft has been sent to Legal and the Board for approval.
We're attempting to post regular themes or challenges on the![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
fanlore community to encourage and focus participation. Some of these have been more successful than others, but we'll keep working on it, so bear with us. *g*
