What are these Wikipedia:Reference links introduced by Fwappler? eg: Wikipedia:Reference desk#Web annotation::How is an annotation layer visible to users sharing the same annotation system???

That's a very good question. Another good question is how they got left in the article for two years. Dreamyshade 05:27, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Balaitous (talk) 07:18, 25 July 2008 (UTC) I have included the reference to co-ment. But co-ment is not a Web annotation system in the sense of the definition given on top of the entry. It is a Web service for submitting text to Web-based annotations. Other exists such as STET or system used in PLoS-One, etc. Would it be better to create a Wikipedia entry "Text annotation"?[reply]

That sounds right Balaitous. Better than making one large "Annotation" page for all medium. Links between the two pages would be appropriate. 82.45.8.208 (talk) 06:00, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Text annotation page is now created. Feel free to review it and accordingly remove the new article template. I will then create the link in this page and remove Stet from the list of examples as it belongs in the new page.--Balaitous (talk) 16:23, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am currently looking for a good web annotation system to use. This page could help me more if it could tell me some of the following:

  • Which systems are popular and actually being used.
  • Which systems require registration and which are "open".
  • Which systems offer public data, accessible without requiring specific software (e.g. via public HTML,XML,JSON).
  • Who is running each system? A for-profit company, or a for-good foundation?

Basically I don't want to start putting content into a system that I don't trust. Maybe Wikimedia should be running the public web annotation service! 82.45.8.208 (talk) 06:00, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Acording to their user manual, ShiftSpace do have public notes. Edited accordingly --Maryna Ravioli (talk) 00:48, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thirdvoice didn't fail because of 'lack of success' but more because they had too much success. Too much abuse made it unmanageable. BorisVeldhuijzenvanZanten (talk) 08:47, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

PushNote needs to be added now that its 2011. 110.174.169.36 (talk) 01:47, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
