yes, exactly, there would be a page for every kind in a wiki

there wouldn't be NIPs at all, these are some dumbshit idea that presupposes the existence of a working protocol that does enough to be usable

nostr is not at that level yet, how long was it between the inception of the bitcoin network and the inception of the BIPs?

a lot longer than it's been here, that's for sure

and yeah, unfortunately that's the chaos of the protocol at this point - you have to pick a client or several clients and examine their outputs to understand what you want to do for automated processing and not just dumb relaying

if you'd asked me about mentions i would have referenced what i have seen in raw JSON of mention containing events, and the "mention" string in the tag and the "nostr:bech32" thing were both part of that, and i only caught the gist of that because of Uncle Bob's client using the prior scheme with tag-numbered references in square brackets

a wikimedia style wiki, like the one used to run wikipedia, would totally work, with the same "staff" manning the moderation roles as the non-searchable git repository with zero-information numbers referencing everything and creating an in-group of people who have memorised them due to building - mainly - clients

building actual smart relay services is outside of that bubble and the guys inside it have been insulated from reality for so long that they think they are invincible and omniscient
