Untitled[edit]

The reading list and references have now been separated for clarity. Does this solve the issue with citations? Shadygrove2007 (talk) 09:42, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Michael McIntyre reports (on Cohousing-L) an ongoing vandalism attempt on this entry: http://lists.cohousing.org/archives/cohousing-l/msg25294.html Raines Cohen 12:02, 30 Jan 2006 (PST)

There is a massive amount of material on specific aspects of cohousing, such as design (A Pattern Language, Not So Big House); consensus decision-making; smart growth and so on. You may wish to narrow your search down to either a physical/design focus or a social/organizational one. There are some good general references to start with. McCamant and Durrett's Cohousing: A Contemporary Approach to Housing Ourselves is the most authoritative work on cohousing. Chris and Kelly ScottHanson's The Cohousing Handbook: Building a Place for Community is a good basic reference. Both list references.

Here are some additional references that you might find useful:

Several issues of Communities Journal of Cooperative Living have had dealt with aspects of cohousing. One issue (No. 106. Spring 2000) was entirely devoted to cohousing. Some of the articles are available online at: http://fic.ic.org/cmag/cmaglist.html
Some resources compiled by the Cohousing Association of the U.S. (Coho/US): http://www.cohousing.org/cohousing-resources.aspx
A bibliography: http://www.grahammeltzer.com/cohousing/index.htm

If you indicate what direction you want to take, I may be able to suggest further resources. Sunray 20:22, 2004 Nov 26 (UTC)

I'd like to look at design concepts for cohousing. What works, what has not worked in the past, and what the direction of cohousing is aiming for in the future. My e-mail is mburkeb@gmu.edu e-mail may be quicker. Thanks! ~Paloma

Internet cafe?[edit]

User Fasten added "internet cafes" to the list of cohousing facilities. I've never heard of a community with such a thing (mine has wireless access and coffee in the common house, but not in a "cafe" format). Is this a real thing? I'm inclined to remove it. Comments? rodii 16:54, 23 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I agree it shoudl be removed... a specific 'internet cafe' space in a cohousing development doesn't make sense - most groups I know of have wireless everywhere, or at least most common spaces. The common house itself is basically an 'internet cafe'. Remove. dbs 04:29, 16 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

citations[edit]

In response to the banner stating that the Cohousing article did not have adequate citations, I researched and added all the proper citations for the article. However, I do not know how to remove the banner about needing citations, and no one has removed it in the several weeks since I did the editing. Can someone please remove it now? Thanks, Mjbinfo (talk) 20:16, 14 October 2009 (UTC) from Oak Creek Commons Cohousing.[reply]

Thanks for the footnotes. I removed the banner. --Stepheng3 (talk) 19:40, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Cohousing/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

I thoroughly researched and provided the references for the article a few weeks ago. However, the statement at the top saying that there are no inline citations is still there. I don't know how to remove it, and would like someone to do so. I have a LOT of experience doing this sort of editing, and it should be as correct as possible. So will someone please take away the banner notice saying that the citations are no good? Thanks Mjbinfo (talk) 19:51, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Restructured[edit]

I restructured the article a bit by moving the list of cohousing characteristics to its own section and rewriting the section to seem like less of a checklist and a little more like an encyclopedia article rather than a pitch (though, it might still read that way to some degree). The section now needs additional citations, but I don't think I added much new content; the need for citations is just more apparent in the prose form.
