 darenwelsh | that would simplify my life | 15:07:22 |
 cicalese | I think it worked well in our Slack team to keep non-MediaWiki conversations separate. | 15:07:40 |
| cicalese | I'm also suggesting a #showcase-wiki room. It becomes confusing and stifles participation when there are too many interleaved conversations going on at the same time. | 15:09:01 |
| cicalese | we may all choose to belong to all of the rooms, but we can visit them and get caught up without having to tease out the separate threads | 15:09:51 |
|  sabinemelnicki joined the room. | 15:11:04 |
 hexmode | 15 room members -- w00!! | 15:11:45 |
 bryandamon | I think it may be helpful to encourage everyone to join the community (currently 7 members) not just the rooms (General currently has 15 members). From the community you can see the list of rooms (currently 2, General and meza) | 15:11:49 |
| cicalese | agreed | 15:12:25 |
| cicalese | And, I think we should probably try to limit the number of rooms (no more than 10? 5?) to keep conversation from getting too fragmented. | 15:13:20 |

 rundg | I like the idea of #random, because as much as I like the witty banter, I don't have time for it most days | 15:13:46 |
| * rundg raining on everyone's parade :angry: | 15:14:34 |
| hexmode | is anyone against #random (besides me) | 15:14:52 |

how can I join this group?
| 15:15:09 |
| darenwelsh | I also want to know. I was going to +1 emoji @sab | 15:17:01 |
| hexmode | Do I have to invite you? | 15:17:05 |
| darenwelsh | I also want to know. I was going to +1 emoji @sabine's message but I don't see how | 15:17:15 |
| darenwelsh | oh that's lame - the up arrow does not allow you to edit your last message like in Slack. It just repeats your last entry. | 15:17:41 |
| sabinemelnicki | why is this room called "General" and not "EMWCon" "MWStake" or sth? – confused. | 15:18:07 |
| hexmode | darenwelsh: but you can delete old messages | 15:18:26 |
| darenwelsh | that more work | 15:18:46 |
| hexmode | riot.im is still in beta | 15:18:46 |
| darenwelsh | oh jeez - I also cannot edit old messages (even for a typo) | 15:19:07 |
| * darenwelsh already dislikes riot | 15:19:13 |
| hexmode | https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/1862 | 15:20:09 |
| rundg | darenwelsh: riot is a lot more like IRC than slack, but does support formatting, markdown, and integrations such as mediawiki search and Travis CI | 15:23:44 |
| hexmode | https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/1357 | 15:26:03 |
| cicalese | hexmode: Do you want me to ask in the Riot room about adding admins to communities? There doesn't seem to be documentation. Also, whether communities are invite only? | 15:26:13 |
| hexmode | cicalese: yeah, I couldn't find anything on that | 15:26:49 |
