Improved main page generally
Welcome! This is an experiment, a shared notepad on mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness.
Much like our idol, the [https://ncatlab.org/ nLab], the idea is that this wiki offers a space for us to share notes, thoughts, definitions and ideas. It is dedicated primarily to formal/mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness, but topics from philosophy, neuroscience and other disciplines are very welcome as well. For In the time being, beginning stages of this wiki is privateexperiment, so that only registered users known personally we explicit encourage people to some of the existing users can read and edit. We would like to make it as easy as possible for registered users to contribute, and explicitly encourage posting of preliminary thoughts and partial submit summaries. If the experiment works, even preliminary pages will improve over time when several different people contribute. On the long run, if the quality of the content is good enough, we could think about making parts of their own scientific work on the wiki accessible to the public. But before any such step is taken we'd be talking to all users and make sure they can delete content they do not want to be publicly accessibletopic.
== Goals ==
Here are a few examples of the kind of posts that are very welcome:
* Posts on concepts that are used in the scientific study of consciousness, which summarize parts of the literature, collect various conceptions or say something on how this something could best be formalized.
* Posts which review the essential formal structure of existing theories of consciousness.
* Posts which outline research projects that are being carried out.
On == Guidelines == For now, we think the only guidelines should be the long runusual friendliness, an open-minded atmosphere and, among other thingsmost of all, the dedication to high scientific quality. Your contributions don't have to be perfect. -- In fact, the nice thing about community projects is that others might add to your initial notes, improving your presentation and clarifying the concepts. -- But we hope this helps to establish a more unique convention on how want to name things in mathematical research emphasize that the wiki is related not open to the scientific study of consciousnesslow-quality content.
If there is an issue or conflict (somebody makes a change to a page you don't agree with), click on the "Discussion" tab at the top of the page and explain your objections. Please also don't forget to provide summaries of your changes to a page in the corresponding field. Also, we'd like to emphasize that the wiki shouldn't be a place where people "sell" their own work. You're very much invited to create summaries of your work and references in pages to which it is important, but that should be with the usual reasonable limits. If there is an excessive violation of guidelines from some account, it might have to be deactivated. == Guidelines How to join == For now, everybody with at least 5 published papers (any discipline) is invited to join this wiki.To do so, simply send an email to ''seminar at math-consciousness dot org'', and we'll provide access codes to you. In case you're a PhD student, you're welcome to join as well.Please send us an email and include your affiliation and a short summary of your research project.

A place to collect In case you experience any technical issues with the wiki that need to be resolved, please send us an email (cf. Please above) and/or click "edit" and add any issue it to the list below.
