Henne, thanks for these daily reports. As of the template mess: Remy and Rajko already did a clean-up here actually for the reviewing process and came up with http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Wiki_Tag_Guidelines and http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Wiki_Template_Guidelines as a listing of templates actually useful and thus preserved from the mess of thousands. I'm a bit curious why we do this again now. Lack of communication? Or do I get something completely wrong here? Rajko? Remy? Best, R 2010/2/15 Henne Vogelsang <hvogel@opensuse.org>:
Hi,
After i moved everything from the openSUSE namespace into the Help namespace which was very straightforward i started to wade through the Template namespace. I must say i get frustrated with the cruft that is already in this instance by today. There were a lot of "standard" Templates that did not follow our own Template guidelines. CamelCase naming, strange content and most of them had no documentation at all. I fixed all the case and content issues and with documentation i got as far as the letter B. I used the wikipedia way of documenting templates.
Every template has a subpage /doc which provides the documentation. You include it on the Template page in a 'noinclude' block so it does not get included when you include the Template. It's easier as it sounds ;) Just look at the first Template we have: AI
http://wiki.opensuse.org/Template:AI
This way explaining a Template on a some page is as easy as
{{AI|000001}} {{AI/doc}}
So if you want to help you can go through the Templates[1] and create documentation where its missing. Thats it for today.
