Proposal: * Working with the Red Hat documentation folks on publishing material upstreamed from RHEL. * Identifying, writing, and maintaining content aside from stuff that is intended for RHEL, whether that's in manuals or shorter form wiki material. * Periodically auditing and pruning old and outdated documentation. * Promoting CentOS documentation as a reliable source of information for CentOS and enterprise Linux in general. * Working with translators to make documentation available in languages other than English. * Working with other special interest groups on their documentation needs and helping them create, maintain, and integrate their own content. I think this is covered under "reliable" and "pruning old and outdated", but I'd love to see someone take charge of doing a complete audit of the wiki and making it correct and authoritative.

[CentOS-docs] Wiki review
Over the past few days, and as I have time over the coming weeks, I've
been wandering around wiki.centos.org and adding blocks like the
following to the top of pages:
{{{#!wiki note
'''Help improve this page'''
We need your help! Help us by identifying questions that have
incorrect/outdated answers, adding questions that you feel need to be
answered, or improving the answers that are given below.
Join us on the
[[https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs|CentOS-Docs]]
mailing list to discuss this, and other documentation work!
}}}
You can find pages to which I've added this by doing this Google search:
https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awiki.centos.org+%22help+improve+this+page%22
We have a LOT of content in the wiki that is outdated (some going back
to CentOS 4 days) and no longer accurate. And this is an ideal place for
community members to help us out with updating/rewriting that content.
I was hoping to publicize this effort to centos-devel, but first wanted
to 1) get more pages tagged this way and 2) make sure that you, the
residents of centos-docs, don't have any concerns about me calling down
hundreds of strangers onto this list (yes, I know, that's very
optimistic) with their edit requests.
Thoughts?

For some open source communities, it is a solid, predictable base to build upon. CentOS Stream => Rolling-release distro that tracks just ahead of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) development, positioned as a midstream between Fedora Linux and RHEL. For anyone interested in participating and collaborating in the RHEL ecosystem, CentOS Stream is your reliable platform for innovation. Yes, these are good, but are both *after* you've made the choice of which button to click. I have been told (not in writing, but just at events) that it's not clear why one would pick one or the other. Maybe we could do a shorter form of those as a mouseover? I agree on the missing points, and also the "Documentation" page includes doc for 7 & 8, even if you're on the 6.10 choice. Which means there's not even documentation links for 6 while it's still possible to download it ? Oops. I hadn't noticed that. Although, we're just 2 months out from 6 EOL, so probably not something we're going to spend much time fixing, I'd guess? On the other points, once you choose x86_64, there should be more guidance on the mirror page I'd say. You'll find the following ISO files, here is a list of which you'll find and what usage. Maybe the mirror parent page could include a readme or a redirect to the ISO page as well for that matter ? I think the fewest places the info is stored, the less likely we'll forget an update when there is one. Definitely, I agree.

A while back I looked around for some active centOS bloggers who were posting quality content, and came up with almost nothing. If you're aware of any, we can try to get them added on. Can I also translate this? Perhaps starting from the beginning of 2019 posts...

If you will be at/near FOSDEM, please consider submitting a talk for the pre-FOSDEM Dojo. As documentation specialists, your voice is particularly desired a these events. Thanks! Forwarded Message Subject: Call for presentations: CentOS Dojo, Brussels, February 2nd, before FOSDEM Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2017 13:23:22 +0100 From: Rich Bowen <rbo...@redhat.com> To: centos-de...@centos.org As you may be aware, we are once again planning to hold the annual pre-FOSDEM Dojo in Brussels, February 2nd, 2018. The CFP for this event is open, and there's more information in this blog post: https://seven.centos.org/2017/10/feb-2-2018-centos-dojo-at-fosdem/ We're looking for talks about CentOS - any and all aspects of CentOS, and the various communities/projects that rely on CentOS for their CI, development platforms, or where they are deployed. We're particularly looking for case studies of how you use CentOS in your production deployments to make the world better. The CFP closes on November 5th, at midnight. Please get your talks in, so that we can once again put together a great schedule. See the 2017 schedule, at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Brussels2017 , for inspiration as to what kind of talks were chosen last year.
