Joan Touzet commented on COUCHDB-2350:
--------------------------------------
Hi Javier,
I'm happy to grant you access, but please keep in mind that the *large bulk* of
the old wiki has been converted to the official documentation. None of us want
to see those pages mass imported in. You should make a point of checking
docs.couchdb.org first, and if the information is contained there, simply
obsolete the old page and have it redirect to the appropriate docs page.
> Finish move of the wiki documentation; clean up references in docs.couchdb.org

> Key: COUCHDB-2350
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2350
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Components: Documentation, Website
> Reporter: Javier Candeira
>
> It occurs to me that as a new inductee into the project I'm in a privileged
> position to update and restructure the documentation as I take the project
> in, and it would probably be a better first task than to go after individual
> bugs.
> This is how I'd go about working on restructuring the documentation:
> - move the old wiki content to confluence and 301 all wiki.apache.org pages
> to the new wiki. No new content added.
> - track all links and references to old wiki in docs.couchdb.org, and rewrite
> them to point at new wiki. Still no new content added.
> - then I would start triaging documentation bugs. There are many tasks that
> are better done by a newcomer, since we need to follow the documentation or
> be confused by it.
> This is what I'd need:
> - To be added to the confluence wiki contributors list (username: candeira)
> - To be added to the old wiki contributors list (username: JavierCandeira)
> - Optionally, to have a test confluence wiki so I can test migrating the old
> one to the new one via scripts without making public changes until bugs have
> been ironed out.
