Re: [ecf-dev] Fw: [equinox-dev] Equinox category tag on the wiki
|
I've done a lot of formatting/reorganization/renaming work on our wiki articles. You can go check out the main page [1] to see the results (the photo is now thumbnail-ized for starters). Many pages have been updated with ECF identification tags.
If you are going to make a new page related to ECF, please think twice before making the page. If the article name seems generic and looks like it could conflict with some other projects' pages, please prefix it with 'ECF' or suffix it with 'for ECF' or use some other form of ECF identification tags.
All conference calls wiki pages have been ECF-prefixed, please do likewise for all future meeting notes articles.

Ah, so that's what it's for. Thanks for the pointer, Jeff. For some reasons I had interpreted "sort key" as also being "name to show up on the category page", so when the article name wasn't actually altered in its rendering on the category page, I was confused.

Rem

Check out the entries on the Equionx

Branding definitely helps, but then the category page
just looks utterly ridiculosu since everything starts with an 'E' [1].
This kind of defeats the whole purpose of a category providing a good alphabetized
listing with that big bold alphabet helping you navigate.
Perhaps something like 'Remote Services for ECF' would be better than 'ECF
Remote Services'? I guess that only solves the alphabetizing problem because
then it'll look just as ridiculous since practically every page would be
'X for <project name>'.

Note that this behaviour is also happening in Equinox and may turn out
to be damaging to the wiki as a whole. I briefly looked at the wiki
namespace mechanism but did not come to a conclusion as to whether it presented
a solution. But yes, even with the categories, using a page name
like API Refactoring does seem problematic. We have tended to go
for Equinox <some generic thing here>.
Jeff
This type of behavior should be done for ECF as we currently hijack a few
generic wiki names like "API Refactoring"

The set of wiki pages related to Equinox has been growing (good thing)
and is now somewhat hard to manage (bad thing). Personally I find I am
continually searching for pages I know to be there. In an attempt to address
this I started adding Equinox category tags to various pages associated
with Equinox. This is as simple as adding
[[Category:Equinox]]
or
[[Category:Equinox|<sort key>]]
The tagged pages then show up in the index
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Category:Equinox
Please tag any relevant untagged pages that you find and any new pages
that you create
