The [[South-Western Ontario calendar]] and [[South-Western Ontario newsletter]] (temporary working titles) will be open evolving projects of and by the people of [[Windsor, Ontario|Windsor]], [[Essex County]], and beyond, to become online reference resources with self-printable flyers to distribute local regional information alone or with other publications (such as '''[[Druthers]]'''), with a focus on sharing critical information, to prepare for the worst, while hoping and striving for the best, and resisting the tyranny of government and corporate overreach.
 
 
 
 
 
== Calendar and newsletter goals ==
 
 
 
This [[South-Western Ontario calendar]] project should be tightly co-developed with the '''[[South-Western Ontario newsletter]]''' project.
 
 
 
=== Aggregate and develop ===
 
 
 
The goal is to collectively aggregate important freely available information, as well as develop and share new content.
 
 
 
==== Mission statement ====
 
 
 
We may want to remove as much confusion as possible by clearly defining [[WE Protect Freedom!#What we're about|#What we're about]], what we [[WE Protect Freedom!#Protect|#Protect]], what we [[WE Protect Freedom!#Reject|#Reject]], what we're [[WE Protect Freedom!#Ambiguous|#Ambiguous]] about, and what we [[WE Protect Freedom!#NEVER|#NEVER]] do - as was done on the '''[[WE Protect Freedom!#What we're about|WE Protect Freedom!]]''' page.
 
 
 
=== Open content ===
 
 
 
This open content (globally public) is not just for freedom and prepper folks, as we hope the wider public will not only become aware of important ideas and events they should learn about, but they may join our ranks.  (As always, be prepared for infiltrators, with balanced skepticism.)
 
 
 
==== Private content ====
 
 
 
Once we've established our open content practices and routines we may then learn and grow confidence in  how to grant private content access to individuals and groups with exclusive privileges - not just on Projex.Wiki but with whatever other social media platforms and networks we utilize.
 
 
 
=== Alliances ===
 
 
 
We hope to collaborate with '''[[Freedom Alliance Canada]]'''  and other networks.
 
 
 
=== Decentralize ===
 
 
 
[[File:Centralization to Distributed Decentralization.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Centralization / decentralization / distribution / distributed decentralization.]]
 
 
 
Because a single point of failure is the easiest way for tyranny to stop and stomp on resistance, it's important we decentralize and distribute away from a central hub to a network mesh of information.  Projex.Wiki may be a good starting place to organize projects, but it should never be the only or last place that information resides.  Naturally we'll openly share developments, solutions, and ways we can collaboratively and openly share the calendar and newsletter projects.

=== Regions ===
 
 
 
South-Western Ontario, starting with a focus on Windsor and Essex County.  As this project develops with clearer focus, goals, and organization on these wiki pages we may invite more communities and folks to participate.  (Feel free to suggest more places and topical categories to add to the bottom of this page.)
 
 
 
=== Submissions ===
 
 
 
I ([[Jason Carswell]]) propose all content once submitted be openly shared, and potentially further developed, edited, and tweaked, here on Projex.Wiki.  Content that may not make it into an issue might still be utilized later.
 
 
 
We can develop and fine tune a '''[[Calendar and newsletter submissions guide]]''' to provide folks with a template of ideas they may draw from, along with rough limits for our purposes.
 
 
 
We can keep evolving some lists, not only for collaborators, contributors, and editors, but to keep the public in the loop of what content we may need help with.
 
 
 
* Articles lists
 
** Needed articles list
 
** Wanted articles list
 
** Wish for articles list
 
** Urgent articles list
 
** ASAP articles list
 
** Sooner articles list
 
** Later articles list
 
* Be aware of list
 
** To avoid list
 
* Events lists
 
** Annual events list
 
** Monthly events list
 
** Weekly events list
 
** Daily events list
 
** Rare events list
 
** One-time events list
 
* Folks lists
 
* Supplies lists
 
** Advertisers lists?
 
** Communities and groups lists
 
** Editorial staff lists
 
* Supplies lists
 
* etc.
 
 
 
=== Editing ===
 
 
 
: ''more coming soon''
 
 
 
Not sure where to start with this.
 
 
 
== Communications ==
 
 
 
We may collectively and openly decide how all this will be organized.
 
 
 
One option is to use some of the [[WEFringe group email lists]], or even create others if necessary.  To join the list(s) that interest you, '''simply send an email with the subject "subscribe" to''' any or all of the 8 groups (so far).  '''WEFringe-REACH''' may be where most of the calendar/newsletter organizing might occur.
 
 
 
:# '''WEFringe-ANNOUN-Request@FreeLists.org''', ''ONLY'' announcements & newsletters
 
:# '''WEFringe-ACTION-Request@FreeLists.org''', organizing activities & events
 
:# '''WEFringe-FUN-Request@FreeLists.org''', escapist amusements
 
:# '''WEFringe-GLOBAL-Request@FreeLists.org''', global news & info we cannot affect
 
:# '''WEFringe-LOCAL-Request@FreeLists.org''', ''ONLY'' local news affecting us and/or that we may react to
 
:# '''WEFringe-PLANS-Request@FreeLists.org''', managing & planning our communities
 
:# '''WEFringe-REACH-Request@FreeLists.org''', communications, media, public relations, tech
 
:# '''WEFringe-SOCIAL-Request@FreeLists.org''', free-form freedom forum
 
: For more info see the [[WEFringe group email lists#Guidelines|Guidelines]], [[WEFringe group email lists#WEFringe F.A.Q. (frequently asked questions)|F.A.Q.]], and/or [[Ecartis Help File]].
 
 
 
== History ==
 
 
 
[[File:StandUpWindsor.ca site-logo-2.png|thumb|right|250px|Logo from [https://StandUpWindsor.ca StandUpWindsor.ca].]]
 
 
 
This idea is not new, but finally has interest in getting things organized and happening.
 
 
 
As of the 2023-08-09 casual Wednesday-Minor meeting at Brown's Lounge in Windsor, these calendar and newsletter projects idea will be revived with new a fervor.
 
 
 
== Related ideas ==
 
 
 
=== Open naming contests ===
 
 
 
* [[Calendar naming contest]], open to anyone to participate in.
 
** Details to be developed.
 
* [[Newsletter naming contest]], open to anyone to participate in.
 
** Details to be developed.
 
 
 
== Research ==
 
 
 
Projex.Wiki will need to know what calendar extension(s) to install and learn how to operate them, among other much needed wiki tools.  Worth noting, Projex.Wiki is not only running [[MediaWiki]] but powerful [[Semantic MediaWiki]] (for anyone who can learn to use it).
