Pirated and unattributed content

So I encountered my first case of pirate/unattributed content on this Youtube channel Singularity Videos.

I would argue at least with Changesurfer Radio he's doing a public service by disseminating content on the reliable host that is Youtube, rather than its native hard to browse mp3 format.

However this now forces H+Pedia to think about positions on such content. My personal view is that it's okay to create a channel like that if:

The content doesn't already exist on Youtube
Credit to the original sources are fully made
Permission is asked for and not actively declined

This puts me in the odd position of acting as transhumanist content police, because now I might have to inform James Hughes about this. He in turn may or may not mind.

Draft sections

I wanted an intersections section but don't feel it's ready yet. Would feature:

Intersections • Comparison of futurist ideologies • ( Politics | Anarcho-Transhumanism | Technolibertarianism | Technoprogressivism ) • Religion • Feminism • Business

Mobile updates

I've installed MobileFrontend which detects if you're on a mobile sized device.

If so, it switches to the skin Minerva Neue which is mobile optimised.

Importantly, some pages may need refactoring, like with the homepage changes. MediaWiki generic guide I followed. Deku-shrub (talk) 14:28, 24 February 2018 (CST)

1.30 Upgrades

I upgraded to the latest version of Mediawiki to get mobile to skins to work.
