#*'''[[User:Rshetty|RS]] 13:37, 13 March 2006 (EST)''': Well the case I just encountered was wanting to include <font face="courier"><nowiki>{{:Synthetic Biology:Vectors/Single copy plasmid#Layout}}</nowiki></font> on the [[Synthetic Biology:Vectors/Wishlist]] under the pSB5* heading. I could spin out the information to a separate page, but ideally I would like to leave it on the original page and just include it elsewhere. | #*'''[[User:Rshetty|RS]] 13:37, 13 March 2006 (EST)''': Well the case I just encountered was wanting to include <font face="courier"><nowiki>{{:Synthetic Biology:Vectors/Single copy plasmid#Layout}}</nowiki></font> on the [[Synthetic Biology:Vectors/Wishlist]] under the pSB5* heading.

# Watch a group of pages (similar to Recentchangesfilter) for even pages that don't exist yet (i.e. all calendar pages) or be able to choose to receive email on changes. Perhaps a calendar specific email notifying system. | # Watch a group of pages (similar to Recentchangesfilter) for even pages that don't exist yet (i.e. all calendar pages) or be able to choose to receive email on changes.

#'''[[User:Bcanton|BC]] 19:04, 24 April 2006 (EDT)''': Since you can get the xml link for a google calendar, we could actually just use a google calendar for OWW and embed the xml into a wiki page with some formatting. | |||
#'''[[User:Ilya|Ilya]] 00:40, 9 May 2006 (EDT)''': Display a printable version of a subsection of a wiki page. This was suggested by [[User:ShawnDouglas|smd]] on [[OpenWetWare:Wiki_questions#Printable_Subsections|Wiki questions]] page. | |||
# [[User:Najaf|Najaf]] 15:00, 15 June 2006 (EDT) Maybe this is the wrong section to mention this, but has the possibility of allowing members to upload software that might be of use to the community been considered? It would be great if groups such as ours could post free/open-source software within openwetware instead of something like SourceForge.net. | |||
#'''[[User:Rshetty|RS]] 19:06, 5 July 2006 (EDT)''': Just came across [http://uniwakka.sourceforge.net/HomePage UniWakka] (a scientific wiki) which has these [http://uniwakka.sourceforge.net/UniWakka features]. | |||
#'''[[User:Rshetty|Reshma]] 11:55, 6 September 2006 (EDT)''': One problem that we're soon going to face with courses is how to archive off the old version of a course. You could just update the course pages every year and rely on the history files for old version, but in the case of courses, it might be nice to have an complete snapshot of the course after it is finished. For instance, move all the <code>BE.109:</code> pages to <code>BE.109/2006:</code>. | |||
#*'''[[User:Austin|Austin Che]] 12:15, 6 September 2006 (EDT)''': Why not just plan ahead and put everything that might be dated under a page name with a date? | |||
#*'''[[User:Rshetty|Reshma]] 13:35, 6 September 2006 (EDT)''': Too late ... I didn't plan ahead and so now I need this feature. | |||
#'''[[User:Ilya|Ilya]] 15:55, 8 February 2007 (EST)''': from [[Help:Wiki_questions#Openness_of_openwetware|questions page]] by [[User:PaulGrayson|PaulGrayson]] - "any lab seriously using openwetware will want to maintain a complete local backup of their contributions, so how about a way to download all of the uploaded files as well? Eventually it might be important for you to make it possible for a lab to get a complete backup of its files with a single click." | |||

# Allow importing of an entire other wiki into OWW. You can dump all pages including revisions of a wiki with dumpBackup.php into a xml file. Ideally, a script should go through and add some prefix to all page names and all the wiki links. Then import into OWW and you have a copy of another wiki under a sub-namespace. | # Allow importing of an entire other wiki into OWW.

This would make it easier to keep up with lab announcements, conferences, etc. | #'''[[User:Dgreenf|Dgreenf]]''': Could a "watched" page email you whenever there are changes to that page?

#*'''[[User:Rshetty|Reshma]] 17:51, 24 October 2006 (EDT)''': This feature already exists. Simply click on the "my preferences" link at the top right corner of any wiki page and then choose "Email me when a page I'm watching is changed". Note that you have to have email enabled via the wiki for this to work. Let me know if you have any trouble with this. | #*'''[[User:Rshetty|Reshma]] 17:51, 24 October 2006 (EDT)''': This feature already exists.
