Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2007 9:22 pm    Post subject: http://www.urbanglasgow.com/ http://www.urbanglasgow.com/ I have commandeered the Urban Glasgow name on Wetpaint. Wetpaint, as some of you may know, is similar to Wiki - you add and edit information on the subjects of your choice. The idea here is to have the Wetpaint site as an area to upload information and articles on Glasgow whilst having the forum here separately, with links between the two. At the moment, I've restricted access to the Wetpaint site to just me, but I can add trusted members to the editor list. Another forum I post on has its own Wetpaint site and allows anyone who registers to edit the content. This, however, leaves it open to abuse, so I don’t want to go down that road. Please add your thoughts and suggestions on this thread. James H _________________ Happiness ain't at the end of the road - Happiness *IS* the road...

Loving the one about trusted member editors as you say it is open to abuse otherwise... Takes one person to fall out with someone else then theres anarchy and a mess needing cleaned up over 2 sites... But anything to spread the word has to be a good idea... _________________ MY FLICKR Back to top james73 Moderator Joined: 30 Jul 2007 Posts: 2106 Location: Relaxing with a glass of chilled Sancerre...

Could be used for finished articles of any projects or visits on the forum. With your knowledge of Townhead I am surprised not to see an article about this area of the city and how it has developed over the years. Need to give some thought on some articles for you to post up _________________ I had a dream today ALEX G @ flickr Back to top james73 Moderator Joined: 30 Jul 2007 Posts: 2106 Location: Relaxing with a glass of chilled Sancerre...

Need to give some thought on some articles for you to post up Yes, I will get some up of the areas I know, but I wanted to get some general articles up first. "Could be used for finished articles of any projects or visits on the forum." - Absolutely, that has been one of my motivations for starting it.
