I did that, and I didn't see any admonitions to discuss all changes before making them. If new people aren't supposed to jump right into editing, maybe they should only have permission to edit the Discussion pages. I would actually encourage the opposite culture - feel free to make minor improvements as you see fit. Supposedly Red Hat employees are watching wiki changes and will revert anything that is inappropriate. That's the genius of a wiki - anyone who sees a problem can fix it immediately. I think the existing wiki pages are suffering more from neglect than misguided editing, which is why I started cleaning them up. When people are afraid to update a wiki, I think that's bound to kill or at least handicap it. That said, I do agree with the process we're following here, where major changes to high-visibility pages are discussed first.

I'm happy to work asynchronously; it would actually probably be faster to simply implement ideas and see how people like them rather than describing them in a meeting. It sounds like you would like to take [[User:Johannbg/Draft/QA]] as a starting point. I can work with that. Should we edit that in place, or should we make a copy to e.g. [[QA/Draft]]? -B. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
