Should we make a listing for blogs, too? Or rather, blogs, livejournals, and all other personal pages with dated entries? Maybe we could have a separate section, instead of a whole separate page, or maybe we could have a whole separate page. --[[User:07djd|07djd]] 22:48, 8 March 2006 (EST)

I think one page will suffice. People with a blog and a homepage surely have a link to the former on the latter.  People who want to link to both here easily can in one line.--[[User:05jl|05jl]] 23:33, 8 March 2006 (EST)

This is the discussion page for "Students with web presences". This page is where editors and readers discuss what content should and should not be in the article, and respond to others' questions and comments. Unlike articles' content pages, editors should only add material and respond to others' postings, and never make deletions. This page is intended to record the history of any debate, as well as work towards resolving it.

All commenters here should take credit for their words. When you make a change, suffix your posting with --~~~~ This will automatically record your username and the time of posting. Doing this helps seperate comments, and is consistent with Wikipedia guidelines.


Should we make a listing for blogs, too? Or rather, blogs, livejournals, and all other personal pages with dated entries? Maybe we could have a separate section, instead of a whole separate page, or maybe we could have a whole separate page. --07djd 22:48, 8 March 2006 (EST)

Maybe the title should be something more general like "Students with some sort of web presence"? Although of course that particular title sounds dumb, but I can't think of anything better at the moment. There are probably lots of people who have some sort of blog/journal etc. but no home page per se. --Brent 12:33, 9 March 2006 (EST)

When we have to choose between titles being accurate to the nub, and titles being something someone will use in text, I prefer the latter. Students' journals are their homepages when they don't have another homepage, right? If a change is made, I'd put forward "Students with personal webpages". Or "Students' webpages" in which case the preface shoudl specify this is only for personal pages, not just favorite links.--05jl 17:15, 9 March 2006 (EST)
