[edit] POV

• Information should be centralized and rest all should be de-centralized. Vjdchauhan 22:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC) (thus a big advocate of Wiki esp Wikipedia, Wikimapia, Wikitravel, Wikileaks etc).

[edit] Wikipedia

• Wikipedia needs better notification mechanism e.g. 'Categoty Watch' don't report new addition/deletion to this category. We need 'Section Watch' as well.
• Systemic biased has creeped in into Wikipedia even with strict NPOV guideline, currently many of promient Humanities topic pages are tilted towards view points of Wikipedians from Western countries. Point system is needed in Wikipedia to counter systemic bias, any Wikipedian with points above a threshold level should have a say in Dispute Resolution/Locking/Unlocking/Adminship/Taking away Adminship etc.
• In future as number of Wikipedians grow to a level where there are multiple wikipedians at city/district level, then Wikipedians can/will start contributing to the society at bigger and local level as well (say by forming CityWiki clubs) and help in making society (may be world) less divisive as well. Aamein/Amen.
• Wikipedia founders should formally support creation of city level Wiki Clubs for better and localized collaboration as well as for (physical) community creation. These Clubs can be audited for their work done/accounts as well. To facilitate the same the Wikipedians should be encouraged to tell in which city they are residing.
• Wikia should have revenue sharing model where the site creator(s)/main editors can keep part of revenue as an incentive to create and propogate the site, part goes to say some CityWikiClub/Social fund and rest goes back to Wikia Founders.
• Voting button support can be given to some/all Wikia sites.

[edit] Politics

• This user thinks that majority based politics (typically based on Religion/Race) as opposed to minority based politics is far more dangerous for society as former in extreme cases can lead to ethnic cleansing whereas latter which is typically a small and marginalized group is simply asking their due share which in a democratic process needs (collective) voting power.
• This user supports caste based politics in India over religion based politics as latter is a very big and broad vote base categorization and is fraught with dangers whereas 'castes' are relatively much smaller group and it helps marginalized caste to assert themselves and climb further in the social ladder.
• This user things homogeneous society is more rigid/fundamentalist than heterogeneous society.
• This user supports multi party system over bi-party system as two parties cannot represent multiple and divergent views of a large society and also minority groups (e.g. non-white people in Western countires) do not get fair representaion in the political setup as they cannot float their own party and contest elections.
• This user thinks that computerization/IT brings efficiency and transparency in govt sector.
• This user thinks that Govt of India should raise Muslim regiment(s) for Indian Army.
• This user is in favor of reservation for :
  • SC/ ST/ MBC/ OBC castes (excluding rich/'creamy layer') in higher educational institutes and jobs.
  • Religious minorities (may be according to their % population in a state) in govt jobs and higher educational institutes.
  • Private industry should also be encouraged through incentives to have more inclusive/equitable recruitment at entry level (skilled, semiskilled, high skilled etc levels)

[edit] Media

• This user supports ban on Tobacco advertising on electronic/print media as well as in popular cinema.
• This user finds majority of Indian TV NEWS channels elitist in nature (including WE THE PEOPLE program hosted by Barkha Dutt). And this user is a non-elitist person.

[edit] IT

• This user advocates Maintenance Oriented Programming (a self coined term) for software development esp Product development where code base survives for years and team can change over time. De-centralization of code is basic concept behind this and here one should avoid sharing of code through mechanism of Inheritance and/or usage of private methods/functions. Such practice reduces side effects to great degree and brings down the cost of subsequent releases (minor and major releases both) considerably. Classes / Objects are good thing to expose functionality but the main business logic should be written in flat code (in separate class/component/dll) having only (big) public/exposed methods/functions.
• In future we should have PC's esp Home PC's primarily having only browser and some notification mechanism (e.g. GMail notification)
