Talk:New organisation for the Wiki
From Mandriva Community Wiki
Hum. I think you've found an excellent way to discourage people writing articles. If you want a more structured wiki, all these templates, categories etc. should be transformed into buttons, rolling lists and fields. Don't expect too many of us to memorise them. --Henri de Solages 13:59, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
- 1) "I think you've found an excellent way to discourage people writing articles" That's the best way to discourage someone to continue to contribute, especially when he spent two hours writing and doing the diagrams. I don't need that.
- 2) If you are a little bit curious, you will explore the Wiki and see, for example, the Application portal. Inside, it is clearly mentioned Subcategories and this stuff. So you can easily see them and access them. I thought that you need that much feeding when exploring the wiki should be okay to find stuff. Anyway I'll try to do something since there might be some truth in what you said (if I have some time, sorry but I also have a looot of work about Mandriva, and in real life as well).
- Thank you for the comment anyway, but avoid being too negative. I'm getting tired of people complaining around here. I'm listening to you only because you are constructive enough and I appreciate that.

Old content articles
What to do with articles with old content? I think they should be tagged. Some could be updated, some can't, just because they are about something which does not exist any more. --Henri de Solages 10:01, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
- I'd say that you can tag the old articles to the rtight category, tag the categories if necessary as well to the appropriate one as well. This can make the article more easy to access.
- If they can be updated, you can edit them or put Template:To recycle or Template:Obsolete if they can't. You can place articles that have become useless in Category:Page to delete for them to disapear properly.
- I hope this answers your questions. Thanks for helping. --Skiper 18:03, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
