WikiWardening
Purpose
Early 2007, new efforts are made to push the wiki forward and drastically enhance both the documentation quality and the wiki health state as a whole. This page serves as a fast moving memo for WikiWardens to coordinate their work. It has no special structure, no rules, will be heavily edited, and most discussion started here will certainly be DeleteWhenCooked. Still, ideas and discussion that are worth keeping may be moved to another page if there is a need for that (like WikiWardeningHistory).
If you see anything in the documentation or in the wiki that should be addressed, report it here, or contact a WikiWarden.
1 - WantedPages
Problem
In its current state, this is unusable. Counts around 877.
Objective
Bring it down below ~500 links.
Recommendations
- A lot of links in there are "just bogus" (accidental CamelCase, wrong use of brackets
["ASIN"]
, etc). All of these should be "fixed" (edited so that they don't link anymore). - Some links in there are typo-ed, and should be properly edited to point to the correct page.
- Some links are outdated (page has moved), they should be fixed also
- broken sigs: some WikiZen have troubles spelling their own names :-) (Ruaok, among other) - help them for their own good!
- missing redirect: some WikiZen have a personal page, but use a differently named wiki account. Create the redirection page for them.
- Jazz/Label/* created quite a lot of bogus links, as they often contain records catalogs, with camelcased names. These pages will eventually disappear. Meanwhile, you can inhibate the links
Just don't "inhibate" anything you see there! Specially:
- don't inhibate sigs for wiki editors without personal pages (they might want to create one later)!
- think twice before inhibating things that looks like BadWikiName of otherwise valid WantedPages.
- when in doubt, just leave them alone!
WikiWardens on this
2 - Monitor incoming pages
Problem
Pages are created by everybody, from WikiMasters to WikiNewbie
s. The later usually don't use categories, don't sign their edits, don't intertwingle things, use BadWikiName
s, don't check spelling, introduce bogus links, or even create completely useless pages.
Objective
Monitor all page creation, and at least mark these pages with the relevant tags:
- NeedsEditing
- NeedsIntertwingling
- NeedsRenaming
- NeedsRestructuring
- NeedsUpdating
- CandidateForDeletion
- DeletedPage
Maybe we should have also:

... or at best, do the work immediately.
WikiWardens on this
Obtain MoinMoin upgrade
TODO: link ticket
Rehaul Categories
WikiTags. Split. Maybe split. Read/rewrite categories descriptions. Check what's in CategoriesDiscussion.
Attachments, includes, cards, etc. Also see MoinMoin 1.5 migration.
DeletedPage
- Delete some of them on end April.
- Continue to review documents and mark the cruft with DeletedPage.
CandidateForDeletion
Pages that should point to wikipedia instead
Historical pages
Promote transclusion
Split documentation into responsabilities zones.
- dmppanda:
- clean, transcluded
- some work to do, transclusion ASAP
Open Questions
- Category nesting (murdos).
- think of a masterplan about categories.
Raw ideas
- Promote the use of cards (TODO: find ticket in trac for transclusion problems / don't forget that Cards on navigation don't really behave nicely)
- Build templates for cards
- niceify the documentation!
- investigate Cards/Intertwingling ideas (think WikiPedia "portals")
