2016-01-14 Thread M.-A. Lemburg
Hi Marilyn,

thanks for sorting the table.

Since the calendar on the PythonEvents page was only showing training
sessions, I've move the table to a new page

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining/Events

and updated the events page to instead point to the calendar
listings we are using nowadays for conferences and user groups
(I don't know how to embed the calendars directly on the page -
that would be ideal, of course):

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonEvents

Regarding the formatting of the training page:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining

I've fixed the layout and clarified the editing instructions
a bit.

Cheers,

I agree that most of the "events" mentioned on that page should
probably go to the more relevant training page:

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining

Since that page is cluttered with course dates as well, perhaps
it would be good to create a new subpage

https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining/Events

which then lists the dates.

The table on the events page can then be removed, since
we would like all conference and user group events to be
listed on the events calendars.

> And I'm not able to preview edits or save them, though I can type them in.

See the https://wiki.python.org/moin/FrontPage#use link at the
bottom of the page.

I've put the pydotorg-www list on CC. That's the right address
for wiki related questions.

If there are no objections, I can move the table to the new
subpage.
