The scope of Cybis Wiki is Dendrochronology, and things related to the science of tree rings. Methods, programming, equipment, measurement data, sites related to dendrochronological studies, and things like that.
The Cybis Wiki is hosted by Cybis Data och Elektronik AB and founder is Lars-Åke Larsson who is the developer of CDendro and CooRecoorder. Despite that, Cybis Wiki will welcome contributions related to other software and methods as well.
By contributing text to Cybis Wiki, you will accept:
- Licensing under GFDL and/or CC-BY-SA which shortly means that you give the permission to others to reuse your text as far as they a) gives you an acknowledgment and b) publish the derivate work under the same license.
- You do accept that other maybe will improve your text - that is the Wiki idea!
This is the same main conditions as for Wikipedia and related projects, and according to licensing the Cybis Wiki project wants to be compatible with the Wikimedia projects.
Why is not Wikipedia enough? Why do we need a Cybis Wiki too?
Wikipedia is really great, and about many general issues, it may be better to contribute to articles there, rater than here, and we will surely link Wikipedia articles quite often, and also reuse material from Wikipedia in articles here. Hopefully some articles developed here may also be possible to transfer to Wikipedia.
But Cybis Wiki will also include material which does not fit Wikipedia according to their principels of 'Notability and No original research. I.e Cybis Wiki is a place where to publish measurement data as well as methods invented by yourself, and the results of dendrochronological investigations of any kind. Still it has to be possible to verify, but not necessarily by quoting texts as there, but also through dendrochronological practice and experience among our selfs as colleagues in the field.
The idea of Cybis Wiki is to gather useful information and help each other to develop as dendrochronologists!
