| I [[User:Paula]] am thinking about restructuring the Wiki and will write down my vision here. | | 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. |
|
| |
|
| ==Ongoing changes== | | ==Finished changes== |
|
| |
|
| I've started with these steps. | | * Namespaces: We now have 2 new namespaces. Draft and Archive. You can find e.g. {{Internal link |target=Draft:Captions}} and {{Internal link |target=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. {{Internal link |target=Mastodon}} instead of {{Internal link |target=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]]. |
|
| |
|
| ===Namespaces ✅=== | | ==Ongoing changes== |
| | |
| We now have these custom namespaces on the wiki:
| |
| | |
| * [https://joinfediverse.wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=3000 Portal]
| |
| * [https://joinfediverse.wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=3002 Instance]
| |
| * [https://joinfediverse.wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=3004 Fedizen]
| |
| * [https://joinfediverse.wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=3006 Draft] (New)
| |
| * [https://joinfediverse.wiki/Special:AllPages?from=&to=&namespace=3008 Archive] (New)
| |
| | |
| ===Changing titles of articles===
| |
| | |
| Titles of articles should be the simplest form possible, so e.g. "Fediverse" instead of "What is the Fediverse?".<br>
| |
| When I move the articles I have to do these things later:
| |
| * Use [[Special:ReplaceText]] to change all internal links.
| |
| * later add the old page again and make it a redirect to the new one.
| |
| | |
| List of titles to change:

| |

| |
| | |
| | |
| Later fix messes that were created:
| |
| * [[Special:WantedPages]]
| |
| * change some {{Ic|<nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:displaytitles}}</nowiki>}}.
| |
| * [[Special:PageTranslation]]
| |
| * [[Main Page]]
| |
| * [[Fediverse projects]]
| |
| * [[Special:BrokenRedirects]]
| |
| * [[Special:DoubleRedirects]]
| |
| | |
| ==Main Page==
| |
| | |
| The Main Page should already have a section explaining what the Fediverse is.
| |
| | |
| ==Fediverse==
| |
| | |
| The main article about the Fediverse, currently found at [[Fediverse]], will be designed anew.<br>
| |
| I started drafting at {{Internal link |target=Draft:New Fediverse Article}}.
| |
| | |
| ==Categories==
| |
| | |
| The categories will reflect the main questions.
| |
| | |
| * What is it? How do I join? -> [[:Category:Fediverse]]
| |
| * How do I use it? -> [[:Category:Usage]]
| |
| * How can I host and administer? -> [[:Category:Administration]]
| |
| * How can I moderate? -> [[:Category:Moderation]]
| |
| * What is this wiki? -> [[:Category:Meta]]
| |
| * How can I help (editing, translating)? -> [[:Category:Editing guides]]
| |
| * (Then of course there should be categories for each of the [[:Category:Fediverse projects]].)
| |
| | |
| These should be color coded and when you visit an article it should be obvious which category the article belongs to, so you don't e.g. end up on articles about editing this wiki or hosting a Fediverse instance, if you just want to know what the Fediverse even is.
| |
| | |
| ==Terminology==
| |
| | |
| In the user guides we might want to switch to terms that people who are not experienced Fediverse users are used to.
| |
| | |
| * Fediverse project -> Platform? Server software? Fediverse flavor? Service? Way to experience the Fediverse?
| |
| | |
| ==Redirects==
| |
| | |
| There should be redirects for the names of corporate social media platforms and they should lead to a Fediverse equivalent or a list of similar Fediverse services. E.g. Instagram -> Pixelfed, Twitter -> List of Microblogging Services, etc...
| |
| | |
| ==Sidebar==
| |
| | |
| The sidebar should have these items:
| |
|
| |
|
| * Main page | | * I'm drafting a new Fediverse article where you can find answers to basic questions in a more structured way. {{Internal link |target=Draft:New Fediverse Article}} |
| * The Fediverse | | * The Main page should already have a section explaining what the Fediverse is. |
| ** What is it? | | * I'll add redirects for all major social media platforms that lead either to the most common Fediverse replacement or to a list of Fediverse services of the same type. E.g. Twitter could redirect to Mastodon or List of microblogging services. |
| ** How do I join?
| | * 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 |
| ** How do I use it?
| | * [[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. |
| * This wiki
