Hi,
I'd like to bring in some experiences from setting up the Marketing
Project wiki here, in order to better make use of the wiki features.
Some of them are already used, some would be good to implement, but most
important is a policy of using the wiki in a manner that will allow
everybody to know what belongs where and to whom:
1. CATEGORIES:
Categories automatically index the pages and sub-categories in
alphabetical order.
Example from Marketing:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:Marketing
NLC category I have setup:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:NLC
...would be good to index the main page for each NLC project into this
category, by adding in the first line this: [[Category:NLC]]
this will automatically index that page under NLC project category and
make a link to this category appear in that page.
2. SUBCATEGORIES:
Like the German project does, they have created a category named
de.openoffice.org that indexes all pages under DE project. All they need
to do is to add the [[Category:NLC]] to their category page and they
will appear in the NLC category page as sub-category.
This is usefull for projects already having more than one page.
To create a sub-category of NLC use this:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Category:yournlcname.openoffice.org
and in the first line add: [[Category:NLC]]
3. NAMING and NAMESPACES:
Like one of MP contributors who setup the wiki in the current form
outlined, having names in the form of sub-directories:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/NLC/ro.openoffice.org
..is the right way to do it as wikimedia will automatically recognize
ro.openoffice.org as belonging to NLC. Same would go for pages under
/NLC/ro.openoffice.org
4. TEMPLATES:
If you look at Marketing Project wiki
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Marketing
you will notice the nice box in the right side of the page which is a
template that can be defined in the wiki to automatically index pages in
certain categories and show relevant navigation links in a set of pages.
If you see fit and need help, I can setup such a general template for
NLC and also, each NLC project can setup their own navigation in this way.
FINAL NOTE:
Please take a look at the wiki participation instructions on the
Marketing wiki main page for instructions and judge wether they are to
be implemented or not in the NLC too.
My latest discussions with Stefan led to the necessity of better
organizing the wiki and there will be changes comming up in the near
future, but for now, the above lines (extracted from the great
contributions of user RealGrouchy in Marketing Wiki) are some first
directions to evaluate and take into account.
~hope this helps
Best,
Cristian

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/NLC:whatshot
The What's Hot section could help all of us.
Feel free to comment!
