These notes come from a Wikidelphia meeting held on 2026 January 15. These are just notes and should not be taken as verbatim quotations.

Present were Wikidelphia Instigator Stan Pokras (S), Staff Editor Paul Sank (P), and volunteer Ted Hewson (T).

[9:00pm]

P: [Raises the issue of page migration to Other Networks (ON).]

I pledge to adhere to whatever the page format at ON is. Can you send me a few links to ON pages that you like the look of?

S: 80% of pages on ON are good by me. "List of Humanity Rising Day Pages" has good examples.

P: Please now add me to ON.

S: Just "Request an Account".

P: [Does so. Gets an "Internal Error".]

S: Please show me the error.

P: [Makes and a screenshot of the error message.]

To which of your email addresses do I send it?

S: [Speaks about his large number of e-addresses, which he thinks he should probably reduce.]

P: [Sends the screenshot to the three addresses he has.]

P: So, how to log in?

S: I need to send the error message to the tech people. Between now and then, I could try making a fictitious account so I'll get to see what happens.

I appreciate your editorial efforts, so you are now "promoted" to something more like a partner, where you work Wikidelphia while I work Other Networks. If I find something I don't like on Wikidelphia, I'll tell you about it.

P: [Is very pleased to hear this!]

S: [Speaks about AI.] ... getting SONAI to organize ... Apple scripting: a language for setting up, "open this", "take a screenshot", and so forth. ... a technique for SONAI to go through Humanity Rising pages and pick out keywords. When I get it, I can plug it into the scripting tool of my browser, and it'll put the keywords in proper places. It's a goal for me, to have all of the Humanity Rising pages fully catalogued. .

P: After the cataloguing, is there a way to back it up for preservation, since Humnanty Rising involves more people than just you?

S: yes, ere are possblties

T:

...

S: I put mutual links.

P: yes, that'd be helpful where I see them.

S: I've dragged some info to ON and left the tit and cats on Wik.

S: let's set a time for me to orient you to ON. circa 30-60m. I put a lot of thought into ON, and I'd like to tell you about that.

Anything to add, T?

T: i won't be available the first Thu o Feb

S & P schedule the orientation mtg for Feb 5, 21:30

S: I've spent a lot more time on ON than Wikid, so much though that I hardly have any local friends.

S: can all our info abt Phila be made into something economically useful.

T: [talks about guy ...]

T: ... info about this region ... others are interested in the same space wikid wants to occupy

S: explain food summit to mr sank

t: march 25, 2026, very sizabl 'overcoming food insecurity together'. [T gives summary]. see bigger pic, understd challenges. we have a flier. registr reqmts in place. $100,000 budget to be approved.

S: suggest: P get more involved with food summit.

t: 3 workshops per track. ... [details] ... capacity 600 peo at the conventn ctr, expctg 250-400

T: maybe P could help find contacts ...

S: AI is ready to give us that list.

P: yeah, AI would be GREAT for that. [suggests S use SONAI]

T: I sent you that spreadsheet. about a third of the links not working.

P: yes, I've stepped up on doing what updating I can on Wikid generally.
