Hi The process of exporting a tiddler to a .tid file, then attaching this file to a post on this forum is fairly straightforward.
A possible interim solution: 1. Publish a periodically updated TW5-docs version from where contributors can obtain a fresh copy (as you have already done here. <http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/editions/tw5.com-docs/>) 2. Set up a TiddlyWiki-Docs forum here on Google groups. 3. Place a few pinned threads at the top of the forum -- one for each documentation moderator (perhaps, one per language.) 4. A contributor then: (a) downloads a copy of the latest TW5-docs (b) modifies (or creates a new) tiddler (c) exports this tiddler in .tid format (d) attaches this .tid file to a post explaining the reason for the change in the appropriate thread of the TiddlyWik-Docs forum 5. The moderator then: (a) downloads the .tid file (b) drags it onto his copy of the docs TW (c) checks the content and if OK (d) updates the TW5-docs plugin (e) periodically posts the updated plugin to the TW5-docs edition Looks to me that the TW5-docs plugin should, therefore, be broken into several sections -- one for each TW5-docs moderator. regards On Tuesday, 15 September 2015 18:18:42 UTC+2, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Following up some recent discussions about making it easier for people to > contribute improvements to the documentation on tiddlywiki.com, I've been > experimenting with a new edition for documentation contributors: > > http://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/editions/tw5.com-docs/ > > It's based on a new plugin $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/tw5.com-docs that > contains all the documentation tiddlers from tiddlywiki.com.
