Quick morning automation project! Alfred workflow for looking up people's WSDC profile. Get the workflow at https://github.com/Stvad/wsdc-tools/releases/download/wsdc-lookup/WSDC.Profile.lookup.alfredworkflow 

gonna remove that section for now! (you can recover actual text from the history of edits of the page fyi)

@RightLeftWrong thank you for expanding on some of those things. 
I now understand better what you meant by Don't raise hands above elbows but I don't love that as a summary (as we're constantly rising hands above elbows for styling, tucking, turns, etc). 

For example, I feel like in WCS we are suppressing the lateral (student-to-student) information flow and promoting the top-down (teachers to students) instead. This does not lend itself well to wiki-style hubs. This means that we need to promote contribution harder -- for example, create a list of "wanted articles" and publish specific "calls for content", emphasizing that we welcome article seeds even from beginners. Just as an idea :)

This is why this article has a big emphasis on "learning in public"! 
https://modernswing.forum/concepts/ has a bunch of requests for content, but I probably should highlight that more here in a more coherent call to action!

This got me thinking about how some activites manage to get a good, deep, "infosphere" going and some don't.

This is a great question, would love to find a good role model in some other movement focused activity 🤔

About concepts and wiki. I feel like WCS is currently at the gymbro level of discourse. There are tons of popular, utterly wrong ideas, and many good, correct ideas get criticized and shot down because they don't align with the fashion or hurt somebody's ego or financial prospects.

A wiki is a good way to start making sense out of it. It might need to accomodate contradicting opinions, though. Certain teachers are even famous for contradicting a lot of "common wisdom" and yet their performances and workshops gather huge crowds. :)

Yeah, figuring how different models of the dance fit together is definitely part of the mission 🙂. It's is often the case that things are not actually contradicting, but use terminology differently.

But there are definitely cases where people just view/conceptualize dance differently - I think it's valuable to have laying out of the arguments and models from both sides in that case.

Hi @RightLeftWrong thank you for contributing! I think it'd be great to add "why" for the don'ts (and maybe why people have the relevant instincts). 
 

Also I'm a bit confused on what do you refer to with 

Don't raise hands above elbows 

Can you elaborate/give an example?
