Hi all,
I have been exploring the information at community.kde.org wiki and
trying to think of ways to make improvements.
A couple of questions to the community:
Is anyone here already involved in wiki maintainence?
Any community members interested in an online Sprint/edit-a-thon or an
in-person Akademy BoF to improve the wiki together?
Some suggestions for improvements are below, but as always your ideas
are very welcome:
- *General Maintenance*: Check that content is up-to-date and archive
[1] or mark as out-of-date [2] old content or information that needs
review [3].
- *Discoverability*: Brainstorm ways to make the content of the wiki
more easily navigable and discoverable, such as including sections "See
also" for KDE-wiki-internal pages and "External links" for relevant
websites (see bottom of SoK [4] and GSoC [5] pages for examples).
- *Consistency*: Structure wiki information in a consistent way across
pages so visitors can find content they want as quickly and easily as
possible.
- *Task List*: Make a list of easy-to-do tasks that just need someone
to do it, and publish them in the appropriate place (Gitlab?). Perhaps
this could be a way to easily engage new contributors.
- Your ideas here :)
Thoughts? Any interest?
I did not make a task for this at Phabricator since the service will be
retired soon. Is there an appropriate place in GitLab for this and
related tasks? I looked under Gitlab > Websites but did not find anything.
Cheers,
Joseph
