What is a Working Group?
In the Linked Earth context, a working group (WG) is a self-organized coalition of knowledgeable experts who elaborate and discuss the components of a data standard for their specific sub-field.
Working groups can be created by any member of the LinkedEarth community to discuss topics of interest.
Each WG page needs the following elements:
- A list of the various group Members
- Polls on specific questions.
- A log of decisions made (e.g., table with dates and content of discussions)
How to join a WG?
On your profile page, you have the option of joining working groups simply by inputting their names in the "Working Groups" tab. The only WGs to pop up are those currently in existence. If the one you want doesn't exist yet, please create it.
Note that joining a working group adds all pages belonging to that working group category to be added to the user's watchlist.
How to create WG?
To create a WG, create a new page and tag it as a sub category of the WG category. The list of working groups will be shown automatically at the bottom of this page (as subcategories of Working_Groups category).
When you want to categorise any wiki page as belonging to that working group, add the working group category to the wiki page.
