Wikipedia talk:Wikipedian organisations
== Wikipedia is... ==
Obligatory post.  Wikipedia is not a community or social site. It's an encyclopedia. Thus wikiprojects = good, wikicommunities =... not so good... -- <small> [[User talk:Drini|Drini]]</small> 17:08, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
:Wikipedian organisations help build community, which makes the encyclopedia a more pleasant place. Less disputes happen, and they are resolved quicker, if everyone believed in [[Wikipedia:WikiLove|WikiLove]]]] and such. Wikipedian organisations can influence discussion, which influences the encyclopedia.

:: Which is why thye're bad in most cases, communities DO influence the encyclopedia content by several vias. -- <small> [[User talk:Drini|Drini]]</small> 18:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
::: Surely the majority do so in a good way? The CVU help the encyclopedia, CJ has {{tl|Calm talk}} which makes talk pages calmer, but only slightly, hence speedying disputes improving the encyclopedia.

==Merge==
Can I suggest we merge this page to the top of the [[:Category:Wikipedian organizations]] page?
A more centrally located listing currently seems to be at [[Wikipedia:Community Portal#Resources]] under "Community support groups and programs", and has superceded this page. There aren't [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Wikipedia%3AWikipedian_organisations many links incoming] either, so if merged should this page be redirected somewhere, or marked as historical, or just deleted? --[[User:Quiddity|Quiddity]] 02:13, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
