Hi, João!
I guess I made the initial wiki doc layout when migrating our existing
docs from the pyside.org website to the wiki. My hope was to encourage
participation in creating missing documentation (and maintaining
existing, of course). I've been happy to see people contribute quite a
bit of stuff there, but indeed, we're still woefully short on newbie
docs (despite e.g. some good initial efforts by Al Kabaila). Also, the
wiki doc organization is indeed quite bad. If you're interested in
working on them, that'd be just great!
A couple of practical remarks:
- When creating new pages, try to include "PySide" or "Python" in the
page name (we share the wiki with other Qt developers)
- Add any new pages to the PySide category by adding the following tag
to the top of the page: [[Category:LanguageBindings::PySide]]
- Currently, regular users can't rename pages on the wiki. If you need
to do that, copy the contents over to the new page, and then report the
old page to the admins (by pressing the Report button) for deletion.
They've been quite patient with my requests so far. :-)
Glad that you're willing to work on this!
Cheers,
ma.
P.S. Just noticed the PySide main wiki page [1] has already been
translated to Spanish, (Dirty?) Hungarian, and Italian. Wonder when we
get the Portuguese translation? ;-D

Hello everyone,
is anyone here responsible for the documentation in the PySide wiki?
The reason is that PySide is reaching version 1.0 pretty soon, and i
think it should be better documented for newbies and beginners like
me. For instance, when i've decided to go with PySide for my projects
(about 3 weeks ago), i've started to search for pyside tutorials and
as i couldn't find much, i had to search for PyQt things. I've
followed some examples, but it has cost me too much time searching for
something to start. Now i have the problem of searching how to do
start working with qml and pyside. So, the same kind of things
happening twice is really bad.
So, the reasoning that i'm asking if there is a responsible for the
wiki Documentation is that i would like to contribute some things, but
i don't want to mess with other people's work. I have already written
a wiki page "Setting up PySide" (http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/
Setting_up_PySide) with some basic information that took me almost 1
hour to search in the first time. And i would also like to reorganize
some things that has to do with tutorials for beginners, if everyone
agrees?!
The two main reasons that i want to contribute something is that i
believe that good documentation for beginners is essential for a
project like this, and because i am a beginner.
Thanks,
João Ventura
