Aims & Goals
PalEON has a lot of moving parts: many people, many projects. The goal of this wiki is to facilitate research coordination within PalEON. This wiki and its subpages are interactive documents that allow users to post progress updates for various projects, create links among projects, develop proposals within the PalEON domain, complete established projects, deposit and store finished products and access and update public data.
This wiki is open to PalEON participants and a login is required. The public PalEON website is located at: http://www.paleonproject.org
Member Login: Top Right of Page
- PalEON members who have been invited to this wiki please click the login box on the top right to register an account at the wiki. To register you must provide your name, a user name (first initial, last name is preferred), your password and a valid email address.
- Once you are registered you will be able to see more of the site, but will still have limited permissions. All new accounts must be validated by a PalEON administrator before you can edit pages, or get full access to the wiki. We are doing this so that your valuable data is not accessed without permission. We're going to try to get you up to full access as soon as possible once you register.
Basic Editing
- To edit a page, click the “edit this page” tab at the top. This opens a script window, and has the ability to preview your changes below before saving them.
- Basic editing tips can be found here or accessed from the left sidebar at any time
- TIP: It's often helpful to open the wiki in a second window and steal syntax format from another page
- IMPORTANT: When you make changes to a page please remember to fill out the Edit summary!
Sections
Calendar & Meetings
This section is where upcoming meetings are listed and where meeting notes for completed meetings are stored.
People
This section is the repository for information about individual members of the PalEON project. Not only will this link to a brief biography, but it will also provide links to the projects, proposals, data and products that the individual is associated with. We welcome all Participants to begin editing their own page. The Administrators (Simon Goring and Jody Peters) will also take care to ensure that the pages are kept up to date as much as possible.
Working Groups
This section provides a place to keep track of Summer/Yearly goals. To encourage coordination among projects, each PI (or groups of PIs) should identify major goals each summer and year and indicate who you are working with on these projects. This way Jody, Jason, or other PalEON team members can check in to see how things are progressing, and/or if plans have changed. For those of you that like check lists this will be a great place to “check off” (or insert DONE on) your To Do list.
Data Management
This section is for currently active projects within PalEON Phase 1. It should include a brief introduction for the page/project and any living documents intended for publication or dissemination. These pages are also intended for discussion among members. Are there data needs that another section/project can fulfill? Are there synergies, conflicts? Check out the project page, the discussion pages and any linked documents.
Data and Products
We've created the Manuscript Ideas section to keep all PalEON team members up to date on what manuscripts are being written and to facilitate collaboration where appropriate. Post your manuscript outlines with primary author(s) here so others can see if there is someplace they can contribute data or analyses and to reduce the potential for duplicate efforts. Include authors, so others know who to contact. Given the limitations of the wiki, this section is not meant to be a working document for multiple authors to make changes simultaneously (like google docs). Authorship guidelines will also be included here, when the Authorship Social Club finalizes them.
Papers & Presentations
This section is intended to be the site for great ideas you may have that could be accomplished in PalEON2.0, or with others outside the PalEON domain. For each new project you can link to personnel that may be interested in the proposal, projects that might feed into the proposal and data that might be useful. Use it as a sandbox for upcoming work, to brainstorm or to develop independent research.
Courses and Camps
This section will be filled once we get papers and other products out of the PalEON project. Please be sure to link back any papers published through PalEON, any PowerPoint presentations or posters you deliver, or any related academic documents so that we can maintain a repository for the project.
