AguaClara

Andrew Buck: adding linkstub template

{{Category=Water}}
The AguaClara team at Cornell University is conducting basic research to create robust technologies for drinking water treatment that will be both ecologically and economically sustainable. Our innovative designs are appropriate for both resource poor communities and for forward thinking communities everywhere.

AguaClara plants are designed to treat turbid surface waters at the municipal scale. They are built by local labor using local materials, and they don't require any electricity. AguaClara partners with local institutions, who design, build, operate, and train the operators to ensure long term sustainability. AguaClara plants have a one-time construction and capacity-building cost of $15 to $30 per person served. The annual fee for operation and maintenance is approximately $2 per person.

URL: [[FabLab.af: Main Page]]

In May 2008 a FabLab was installed in the village of Bagrami near Jalalabad, Afghanistan with funding from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Small Grants for Exploratory Research (SGER) program. This FabLab is a continuation of a program started in 2002 by Massachusetts Institute of Technology's (MIT) Center for Bits and Atoms (CBA). Currently there are approximately 40 such labs in 11 countries all interconnected with high speed internet. The aim of the Jalalabad FabLab was to investigate post-war and disaster recovery applications of digital fabrication that benefit from access to on-demand, local, custom production capabilities rather than relying on long, slow, and expensive supply chains. The Jalalabad lab was expected to have special emphasis on health care needs that require on-site customization for individuals.

Active "Commons" projects wave

2011-06-08T19:05:49Z

Andrew Buck: adding linkstub template

Wave: https://wave.google.com/wave/waveref/googlewave.com/w+sfbvrRfeC

Are you working on a project that:

*creates a pool of resources
*invites users into a democratic space to govern the use of the resources
*attempts to lower barriers to entry, and is moving towards transparency in
accounting
*creates or uses tools or methods that might be of use to other Commons
projects
*has an entry point for internet users to participate, even if they aren't
in the local area and can't necessarily vote

If you answered yes to a lot of these you might want to write about your
project in the Wave that is shared with the OpenKollab group.

https://wave.google.com/wave/waveref/googlewave.com/w+sfbvrRfeC

You will need to be logged in with a Google account that is subscribed to
the OpenKollab list in order to edit the Wave.

Category:Maintenance Categories

2011-06-08T18:45:17Z

Andrew Buck: creating category page

This is a top level category for any categories containing pages that need some sort of maintenance done on them. Most of these subcategories should be periodically "cleaned out" by going through and performing whatever kind of cleanup/maintenance the pages require so they are no longer listed.

Category:Pages Containing Only Links

2011-06-08T18:42:59Z

Andrew Buck: creating category page

Pages in this category are automatically placed here by [[:Template:linkstub]]. They are short pages, often containing just a link, or a single sentence and a link. Most of these pages should just be redirects to other pages, or should have some more context to them so they serve as more than just a link with no explanation of what it is or why it might be of use to the OSE project.

Andrew Buck: extra info about errors

There is a substantial category missing from
http://openfarmtech.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Sidebar
and that is "Metalworks".

In line with with Rasmus's idea to emulate Ekopedia/Wikipedia, posted a rough draft of a main page organization on Talk:Main Page. Thoughts? Is a shift too much bother while translation is going on? I read the comments on Gizmodo, but didn't see anything in particular to add to the FAQ. Do you have any specific ideas? [[User:Marie.Byleen|Marie.Byleen]]

Hi Elifarley, thanks for taking the initiative to organize the CEB Press build instructions. I've started the effort at [[CEB Press Build Instructions]] - try to integrate with that. --[[User:Conor|Conor]] 13:53, 27 March 2011 (EDT)

Hi! I started cleaning up some stuff, such as unused categories and creating some more structure. I would like to do more but for some stuff I need admin rights.
For example, I would like to go through [[:Category:Candidates_for_speedy_deletion]] - I'm an inclusionist so I when in doubt I will leave stuff around. There were also some protected pages that I wanted to edit (small edits, such as "fixing" the category).
Anyway, it's fun to work on this :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 10:24, 19 April 2011 (PDT)

hey eli.

i think "IT Team" is better than "IT Team Member" because technically, "IT Team Member" is not a category. As an analogy, think of using "Solar Energy" vs. "Solar Energy Article". we shouldn't have to qualify by including the word "member" since the presence of the word "team" pretty much already explains that this person is part of the said team.

Hello. I was wondering if you could enable the LaTeX math rendering on the wiki here. You need to just set the appropriate variable to true in LocalSettings.php. I posted a forum thread about it [http://forum.opensourceecology.org/discussion/248/wiki-embedded-math-equations here]. When it is working correctly simple equations will get rendered like this <math>x = 5</math> and more complex ones like this: <math>P = \frac{C}{V^\gamma}</math>. -[[User:Andrew Buck|Andrew Buck]] 19:50, 2 June 2011 (PDT)

I have been getting a lot of "500 internal server errors" here on the wiki. I have always been getting them, but over the last few days there have been a lot more of them. Just recently it took ~10 minutes to save 4 pages since I had to retry each page several times before getting it to work successfully. I am not sure what to do about them, but I did want to at least let you know it was happenning so you can check things out on your end. I would check the /var/log/apache2/error.log to see if it has any information in it. The full text of the error is shown below. -[[User:Andrew Buck|Andrew Buck]] 08:48, 7 June 2011 (PDT)

<pre>
Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@opensourceecology.org and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
</pre>

P.S. I should mention that I seem to get these most often when looking at image pages, or categories containing lots of images (I have been working with these a lot lately). For an example, see [[:Category:2D_Sketch_(Artistic_Based)]] which currently has thrown the error 6 or 7 times in a row now. -[[User:Andrew Buck|Andrew Buck]] 08:51, 7 June 2011 (PDT)
