It is in the subject of this channel 18:14:01 <marja> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Wiki_and_Documentation#Page_naming 18:14:06 <Kernewes> actually, where do page names come into it, is it just in links? 18:15:02 <marja> Kernewes: well, if someone starts a page Games/X86_64/educational/multilingual 18:15:17 <marja> that is wrong, because it is nested 18:15:34 <marja> every / it is nested one level deeper 18:17:03 <marja> Kernewes: and some people are more likely to import without thinking about license or crediting the original author than others 18:17:57 <marja> Kernewes: but I guess simonnzg knows someone I'm talking about and that he'll watch him 18:18:01 <marja> simonnzg: correct? 18:18:44 <marja> #info simonnzg and Kernewes help watch the wiki 18:18:56 <marja> #info Kernewes would like some more instructions 18:19:50 <marja> Kernewes: the wiki was more obgr_seneca's task, he'll help you when he finds time 18:20:06 * marja is there more on this topic? 18:20:31 <marja> Kernewes: what was the last thing you read? 18:20:46 * Kernewes back again 18:20:49 <simonnzg> marja: Yes, but it's enthusiasm that causes the problems, nothing else. 18:20:56 <Kernewes> marja: about nested pages 18:20:58 <marja> welcome :) 18:21:14 <marja> Kernewes: OK, I'll paste the others 18:21:21 <Kernewes> marja: thx 18:21:35 <marja> [20:15] <marja> every / it is nested one level deeper 18:21:36 <marja> [20:16] <marja> Kernewes: and some people are more likely to import without thinking about license or crediting the original author than others 18:21:38 <marja> [20:17] <marja> Kernewes: but I guess simonnzg knows someone I'm talking about and that he'll watch him 18:21:39 <marja> [20:17] <marja> simonnzg: correct? 18:21:40 <marja> [20:18] <marja> #info simonnzg and Kernewes help watch the wiki 18:21:42 <marja> [20:18] <marja> #info Kernewes would like some more instructions 18:21:44 <marja> [20:19] <-- Kernewes heeft deze server verlaten (Ping timeout: 244 seconds). 18:21:45 <marja> [20:19] <marja> Kernewes: the wiki was more obgr_seneca's task, he'll help you when he finds time 18:21:57 <marja> simonnzg: that is true, he is a good chap :) 18:21:58 <Kernewes> marja: ok, thx 18:22:29 * marja is there more on this topic? 18:22:35 <Kernewes> not from me 18:23:19 <marja> #topic Calenco - installer help 18:23:24 <marja> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Help_buttons_in_DrakX-installer#TODO 18:24:30 <marja> #info The contact with Thierry was restored, we were able to finally test the test installer help files with the names papoteur found 18:24:53 <grenoya> marja: this list is global scale not just thetext visible in installer, no ? 18:24:54 <marja> #info so far 5 of those names were found to be correct 18:25:35 <marja> grenoya: this is both for the help texts in installer, as for the online help 18:25:59 <grenoya> because i see "licence in the footpage" 18:26:04 <marja> grenoya: although there is no problem for the online help, except that we don't have that footer yet 18:26:07 <grenoya> that's for me /o\ 18:26:34 <marja> grenoya: well, if you can add it, you save me work :-D 18:27:19 <grenoya> if it's only on the web pages (doc.mageia.org) it's my job 18:27:20 <marja> camil: is my impression correct that it is possible in Calenco to add a footer to each page, with a note about the licence? 18:27:24 <grenoya> but i'm late, sorry 18:27:45 <marja> grenoya: no problem, you've already done a great job 18:27:56 <marja> grenoya: and there are only 24 hrs in a day 18:28:01 <grenoya> :) 18:28:50 <marja> #info we need to rework installer help to get the correct files in drakx-installer-help for Mageia 3 18:29:46 <marja> grenoya: another possibility, is to add the licence to DrakX.xml (that is the first page with all the links to the other pages) 18:29:59 <marja> grenoya: that is better than nothing 18:30:31 <grenoya> i would like to have it on index.html too, as long as it's the same for all documentations 18:30:54 <grenoya> but a link on each page could do it 18:31:16 <marja> grenoya: it is all cc by-sa 3.0 18:31:26 <grenoya> i have to see if i can manage it without calenco (in order not to change the view in the installer) 18:31:43 <grenoya> marja: ok, perfect :) 18:31:50 <marja> grenoya: if you have time, please do 18:32:08 <marja> grenoya: then I can focus on the changes for Mageia 3 18:32:52 <marja> grenoya: if you think it would be better to have it in the online help itself 18:33:16 <marja> grenoya: then I should do that before starting on those 5 new files 18:34:16 <grenoya> marja: i don't see the point of having it in the installer, only on the doc server 18:34:40 <marja> grenoya: I agree (saves me a lot of work ;) ) 18:34:47 <grenoya> so i'll try to put it, if i can't, we'll think of another way :) 18:34:48 <marja> grenoya: thx :))) 18:35:00 <marja> grenoya: fine :) 18:35:16 * marja is there more about installer help? 18:36:29 <marja> #topic Calenco - MCC help 18:36:37 <marja> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Calenco_Draktools#TODO 18:38:27 <marja> #info a file can be part of the A-Z help and of MCC help at the same time, so there is no problem to continue with continuing what we already started 18:38:49 * marja does anyone have questions about the todo? 18:41:27 * marja that sounds like no questions :) 18:41:36 <Kernewes> none from me 18:42:14 <grenoya> neither from me 18:42:27 <marja> #action everyone with Calenco access: help write and review the help for your favourite tools 18:42:35 <simonnzg> Nor me, although which part of the wiki does not allow nesting? I've just seen: https://wiki.mageia.org/mw-en/index.php?title=Support/Advisories/MGASA-2012-0204&redirect=no 18:44:19 <marja> simonnzg: here it says it is not allowed https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Wiki_and_Documentation#Page_naming 18:44:42 <marja> simonnzg: I knew dmorgan did it, I wasn't aware of tmb 18:44:50 <simonnzg> marja: That's what I thought. 18:45:18 <simonnzg> There are hundreds of pages like that. 18:45:21 <grenoya> what is /mw-en/ ? 18:45:36 <simonnzg> grenoya: Mediawiki-English? 18:45:43 <marja> grenoya: you see that when you edit a file 18:45:54 <grenoya> is it a allowed language for us ? 18:45:56 <marja> but if you don't edit it, you see only /en/ 18:46:01 <simonnzg> grenoya: It's a special language for people who don't use /en/ 18:46:06 <grenoya> i'm not logged in 18:46:10 <marja> simonnzg: lol 18:46:47 <simonnzg> I logged out an it because /en/ 18:46:56 <marja> grenoya: this is the real page name of simons link https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Support/Advisories/MGASA-2012-0204 18:47:03 <simonnzg> Let's try that again... "I logged out and it became /en" 18:47:39 <marja> simonnzg: I thought it was related to editing, but of course, i log in to be able to edit ;) 18:48:23 <simonnzg> marja: I have no idea why that extra complexity is necessary, but there it is. Programmers. Huh. ;-) 18:48:31 <marja> grinz 18:48:36 <grenoya> for other pages, when looking at the history it switches to /mw-en/ but this one was /mw-en/ since the begining o_O 18:49:27 <marja> simonnzg: do you feel comfortable with pinging tmb about this? 18:49:51 <simonnzg> marja: Problem is that I really can't see an alternative to what he's doing. 18:50:12 <Kernewes> why isn't nesting allowed? 18:50:18 <simonnzg> marja: This is a bit different to nesting help pages. 18:51:06 <marja> Kernewes: because a wiki isn't supposed to be a tree, but more a cloud of pages that are linked in many ways 18:51:22 <simonnzg> Kernewes: Well, strictly-speaking, I don't think this is nesting. It's more like using a slash in a file name. I don't believe actual nesting is enabled in the wiki for anything but user pages. 18:51:29 <Kernewes> marja: so you can get to related things via the links anyway 18:51:31 <simonnzg> But I need to get in there and look! 18:52:26 <marja> #action ask obgr_seneca about the "nesting" of advisories 18:52:47 <marja> simonnzg: maybe it would be better to have a namespace for those advisories 18:52:50 <Kernewes> simonnzg: marja: if using a slash in a file name is going to cause confusion, perhaps we shouldn't do it anyway 18:53:05 <marja> Kernewes: good point 18:53:13 <marja> #undo 18:53:13 <Inigo_Montoya> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Action object at 0x840842c> 18:53:22 <simonnzg> Kernewes: marja: That's the idea: no slashing in the wiki ;-) 18:53:28 <marja> #action ask obgr_seneca about the "nesting" of advisories and suggest having a namespace for them 18:53:41 <marja> simonnzg: that gives such a mess 18:54:26 <simonnzg> marja: Net thing is to design a slightly yellow page background... ;-) 18:54:33 <simonnzg> Net/Next 18:54:46 <marja> simonnzg: for all pages or for certain pages 18:54:47 <marja> ? 18:55:13 <simonnzg> The ones someone has slashed. Oh, it's an English-ism. Think yellow snow. 18:55:24 <marja> OK :) 18:55:35 * marja thinks she needs to go soon 18:55:37 <Kernewes> marja: I didn't understand that either 18:55:40 <simonnzg> marja: Too much work the last few days. Not enough sleeeep. 18:55:53 <marja> simonnzg: poor guy! 18:56:07 <simonnzg> Kernewes: When the meetbot isn't recording things, maybe I'll explain. 18:56:20 <marja> does anyone have anything else to say? 18:56:32 <Kernewes> simonnzg: I have to go after the meeting 18:56:46 <grenoya> nothing from me 18:56:53 <Kernewes> nothing from me 18:56:58 <simonnzg> Regarding Advisories: Because they're not REALLY nested, there's no way of listing them, let alone any obvious way of getting to them via the landing page. 18:57:13 <simonnzg> Kernewes: Probably best ;-) 18:57:29 <marja> simonnzg: ok :) 18:57:32 <marja> #endmeeting
