Hello world - my name is Roger. I have been lurking around Feathercoin for a few months and decided for myself that I want to contribute to Feathercoin and its community. I can barely code myself out of a paper bag, but I’m not afraid of putting time into projects I believe in.
Now, here’s a first proposal.
Feathercoin has become an important piece of history as “the bronze” to Bitcoin or Litecoin’s little brother, so it’s clearly deserving a place on Wikipedia. Having said this, the editors of Wikipedia are fighting daily battles to keep scammers or agenda pushers out of the encyclopaedia so if we are proposing an entry for “our” coin, it must be rock solid.
I have started off with a first draft, but it’s still lacking various items.
This thread is to discuss the document and its proposed content, albeit the google doc is fully editable for anyone with the link:
Proposed Wiki Entry for Feathercoin
Please remember that Wikipedia needs sources for every claim and that “I remember this precisely” is not considered a trustworthy source unless it’s been ‘printed’ somewhere.
The goal is to create a high quality entry that explains the coin’s history and relevance, and the members of this forum definitely have the knowledge to make it happen :-)
