What to make at an IndieWebCamp<a href="https://tantek.com/2024/072/t1/created-at-indiewebcamp-brighton#t5Vu1_note-2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">²</a> can be anything from setting up your personal website, to writing a blog post, redesigning your styling, building new features, helping other participants, or contributing to shared IndieWeb community resources, whether code or content. <br><br>Everyone is encouraged to at least pick something they consider easy, that they can do in less than an hour, then a more bold goal, and then perhaps a stretch goal, something challenging that may require collaboration, asking for help, or breaking into smaller steps.<br><br>For my "easy" task, I built on what another remote participant, <a class="" href="https://gregorlove.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@gregorlove.com</a> completed the night before. gRegor had archived all the IndieWebCamp Brighton Sessions Etherpads onto the wiki, linked from the Schedule page<a href="https://tantek.com/2024/072/t1/created-at-indiewebcamp-brighton#t5Vu1_note-3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">³</a>. gRegor had noted that he didn’t have time to clean-up the pages, e.g. convert and fix Markdown links.<br><br>I went through the 13 Session Notes archives and did the following:<br>* converted Markdown links to MediaWiki links<br>* converted <a class="" href="http://indieweb.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">indieweb.org</a> (and some services) links to local wiki page links<br>* fixed (some) typos<br><br>With some help from <a class="" href="https://alexsirac.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@alexsirac.com</a> (<a class="" href="https://todo.eu/@alexture" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@alexture@todo.eu</a>), I figured out how to create a MediaWiki Contributions summary link of my edits:<br>* <a class="" href="https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Tantek.com&namespace=all&start=2024-03-10&end=2024-03-10&offset=20240310143900&limit=25" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=Tantek.com&namespace=all&start=2024-03-10&end=2024-03-10&offset=20240310143900&limit=25</a><br><br>I point this out to provide an example of an IndieWeb Create Day project that is:<br>* incremental on top of someone else’s work<br>* community contribution rather a personal-focused project<br>* editing and wiki-gardening as valid contributions, not just creating new content<br><br>I point this out to illustrate some of the IndieWeb community's recognitions & values in contrast to typical corporate cultures and incentive systems which often only reward:<br>* new innovations (not incremental improvements)<br>* solo (or maybe jointly in a small team) inventions, designs, specs, or implementations<br>* something large, a new service or a big feature, not numerous small edits & fixes<br><br>In this regard, the IndieWeb community shares more in common with Wikipedia and similar collaborative communities (despite the <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/Indie" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">Indie</span></a> in <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/IndieWeb" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">IndieWeb</span></a>), than any corporation.<br><br><br>For my "more bold" goal, I wrote a medium-sized post about the auto-linking improvements I made the Sunday before the IndieWebCamp to my personal website with examples and brief descriptions of the coding changes & improvements.<br>* <a class="" href="https://tantek.com/2024/070/t1/updated-auto-linking-mention-use-cases" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://tantek.com/2024/070/t1/updated-auto-linking-mention-use-cases</a><br><br><br>My stretch goal was to write up a more complete auto-linking specification, based on the research I have done into @-mention @-@-mention user practices (on <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/Mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">Mastodon</span></a>, other <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/ActivityPub" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">ActivityPub</span></a> or <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">fediverse</span></a> implementations, and even across <a class="" href="https://indieweb.social/tags/socialMedia" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span class="p-category">socialMedia</span></a> silos), as well as how many implementations autolink plain text URLs, domains, and paths.<br><br>That stretch goal remains a goal, however I did collect a handful of prior posts on @-mentions which I plan to source for specifying auto-linking and @-mentioning:<br>* <a class="" href="https://tantek.com/2023/011/t1/indieweb-evolving-at-mention" rel="nofollow noopener"
