I'm trying to restructure the wiki a bit and then create more content to answer the most basic questions people have about the Fediverse.
Finished changes
- Namespaces: We now have 2 new namespaces. Draft and Archive. You can find e.g. Draft:Captions and Archive:Mastodon features explained in the new namespaces.
- Article titles: I renamed all articles that were titled "What is...?" or "What are...?" to the more simple title, e.g. Mastodon instead of What is Mastodon? (which redirects to the former though).
- Categories: I removed some categories like the "What is" category and added a few new ones, like Category:Usage.
- Redirects: You can now search for the name of some other social media services and get redirected to a Fediverse equivalent. Instagram, Reddit, Youtube, Goodreads, Twitter (also X (Twitter))
Ongoing changes
- Fediverse I'm drafting a new Fediverse article where you can find answers to basic questions in a more structured way. Draft:New Fediverse Article
- The Main page should already have a section explaining what the Fediverse is.
- Sidebar: I'll edit the sidebar to contain these items Main page, The Fediverse (What is it?, How do I join?, How do I use it?), This wiki (About, Navigation, Categories, Editing/Translating), For Editors, Guides & Guidelines, Todos, Special pages, Help about MediaWiki, Recent changes
- Templates: Template:Getting started links will be edited.
- What people usually tell you about the Fediverse, Getting started with your Fediverse account, Welcome to the Fediverse Quickstart guide might be renamed or split/merged with different articles.
Finishing touches
- I'm going to edit the editing guides to document the new changes.
- I'm going to check all reports to fix errors.
- I'm going to try to find translators to update/fix the translations.
