Fedora websites mailing list and Wiki ownership

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

We have been managing feedback on the official Fedora websites, currently http://fedora.redhat.com and http://fedoraproject.org/wiki through bugzilla and discussions in the marketing list. It makes sense to have a independent mailing list -> fedora-websites-list which can also be used for discussing wiki pages. The wiki has good amount of community buy-in and the amount of content being added is growing rapidly. While this is indeed a positive development we need to make sure the content is organized and kept updated.

Patrick Barnes has been keeping a good eye on this in general and I guess we can declare him the wiki master which is essentially the role he is performing .Going ahead, it might be a good idea to introduce a concept of "ownership" to each of the wiki pages. Every page would have a comment on top which declares the owner. Everyone in the edit group should have their own wiki pages filled out with atleast the contact information . Every page is also subscribed atleast by the owner of that page to monitor changes and keep the content relevant and updated.

This process would help us make sure that unmaintained pages are marked as such and provide hints to users on what could be potentially outdated. It would also provide a list of pages that new wiki users can take care of and it provides accountability for the wiki itself.

Suggestions welcome.

regards
Rahul
