What if there would be some way to alert the whole community that if there is a t&t that they've used recently and found helpful, send us an email or PM just to let us know that the information is still good and at least some people find it useful? We could say any t&t thread you've referenced in the past 6 months or whatever.
Any way to do that?

    I suggest members post their interests on a wiki page ?

    Just take care if you are not familiar with the wiki, some of the
    tutorials (on the forums) are either out of date or wiki pages
    exist already (backup for example).

    So best to propose pages -> review proposed tutorials:

    1. Accept -> put them on the to do page.
    2. Reject -> I suggest we track the pages we reject and why so we
    can more easily triage or re-consider.

    I agree with the necessity to divide tasks into categories and
    assign them to team members with skills or ambition to do the job,
    or let members choose what they prefer to do:
    1. Find threads/tutorials on the forums that are suitable for
    transition, put them on the PagesForImport list, send authors a PM
    to ask permission and remove the thread from the list once it has
    been wikified.
    2. Create wiki pages, with the help of the new tool, from
    tutorials for which either permission is granted or 2 weeks have
    passed after sending the PM. To check this, it would be best to
    add a Date column to the PagesForImport page.
    3. Review newly created wiki pages. We might create a new wiki
    page with a list of all the newly created wiki tutorials, date,
    reviewer etc.
    Let me know what you think.

    Sure thing. I am realizing that I will probably do a good bit
    better at simply converting and marking up pages, rather than
    deciding which are suitable for wikification and which are too
    outdated- if we get some folks to really pull pages, I can beaver
    away at the actual conversion.
    All that to say, if some member sees a LOT of tutorial pages that
    could be converted, but doesn't have the time to be responsible
    for their conversion, I'll be glad to step in.

    I like the general "goal" of a few pages per week. Can the team
    review 2 ? 5? pages / week

    I see this work more as a marathon then a sprint.

    I think in addition to our Pages for Import page we should also
    have a "Existing pages that need updating" page as well- since
    half our work, it seems, could be just bringing existing wikis up
    to date.
    If you think we need one then create one :)

    I'd put it in /ForumWikiTeam/"pagename"





    Also my other question: How can you view all subpages of a given
    wiki page? Say I want to view all subpages of our ForumWikiTeam
    page. How?


    I don't know myself.

    I read that there is moves afoot looking at marking pages.

    Might be worth holding fire on this, I will try and talk to
    cprofitt about this over the next few days.

Give people the threads to wkify link?

I see it as a 2 wat street ...

If Berty cannot be bothered with making inforamtion available on the wiki - then give them somewhere to link - on a wiki - if it does nothing else it shows them wiki syntax.

If Berty can be bothered, that to mind is being community (unity) aware at least, we should help them )

Links back to a wiki page in my mindd




This is all good stuff and the things I have been waiting for.

At the moment there is about 8 of us - all clever - full full of ideas - PLEASE put your thoughts on the mailing list :)

None of us can think of all eventuallities - except bodhi ...

but he's been here longer ;)


I cannot make it plain enough

There are few of us - any idea is a GOOD one
