Real names?

Should we ask for real names to go with accounts, when people apply? (This is not for the 'account name - people can use pretty much whatever they want, there.) Classic computer people mostly use their real names (maybe because we're old-fashioned :-). I like knowing who people really are; the anonymity of Wikipedia has always irked me.

Well, exactly: it's the require I'm unsure about, and am asking for opinions on.

Backup/mirror?

Sometimes this site goes down and is unavailable for a short period. So far it has always come back up, but there's always the concern that it might not always do so in the future. So I wonder: is the data backed up or mirrored somewhere? Granted, archive.org does an ok job: Main Page But it would be nice with a more proactive strategy. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 09:13, 6 October 2022 (CEST)

I think Tore might have an automatic backup running, but I'm not sure. The problem with archive.org is that it might save the articles, but I'm not sure about the history.
The big concern along these lines, for me, is that Tore runs the whole thing 'out of his back pocket', as the expression in English goes. So if he is crossing the street and gets run over by a truck, we're SOL at the moment: the DNS entry, hosting, etc are all in his name.

Of course, such a link would also require working out a workable relationship, for both sides - and there is the concern that they would want to run the show, in directions that they pick.
But a number of people have put in a lot of work (in my case, quite a lot), and we really ought to do something to make sure it is safeguarded for the future.
