Subject: [Wikiversity-l] IRC meeting: What is Wikiversity?
I've been told that for some languages, people are moving away from the idea that all
Wikiversity-type stuff has to be taken out of Wikibooks and moved into a corresponding
Wikiversity website. This seems to be leading some people to ask, "Why bother making
new Wikiversity websites if we can do everything in Wikibooks?" In particular, the
request for a Greek language Wikiversity has been "conditionally approved" but
is now held up, apparently because some people do not think that a Greek Wikiversity is
needed is its mission can actually be done at Greek Wikibooks.Personally, I find this
situation to be confusing. Maybe we can start sorting this out by having a meeting on IRC
(see link below). I also encourage those who will not be ably to participate in the
meeting to make comments either in this email list or on the talk page at the
