Revision as of 20:02, 14 November 2024

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.

Ongoing changes

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.
